Japan's Shima Seiki, a leading manufacturer of computerised flat bed knitting machine is displaying its latest version of its SDS-ONE APEX3 3D design system at the Preview in Daegu exhibition, March 5 to 7, Korea. Shima Seiki is also the pioneer in complete garment manufacturing technology called ‘Wholegarment’ wherein an entire knitted garment is produced on the knitting machine without the need for linking or sewing afterward. The new SDS-ONE APEX3 3D system supports the entire process of apparel production from planning and production to sales promotion and has a capability for virtual sampling as well that offers great savings in the sample making process.
This is an all-in-one 3D design system that supports all aspects of fashion design and production. It’s at the core of Shima Seiki’s Total Fashion System concept. Ultra-realistic simulation capability allows virtual sampling to minimise time and resource consuming sample making process. Products can also be evaluated using 3D simulation, such as 3D modeling, 3D fitting and 3D mapping. APEX3 also supports design and simulation in a variety of other industries such as circular knitting, weaving, pile weaving and printing.
