Leading Japanese computerised flat knitting machine manufacturer Shima Seiki will exhibit at the upcoming Expotextil Peru 2018 show in Lima, Peru, where it will promote its Wholegarment knitting technology by displaying its SWG061N2 Wholegarment knitting machine.

As a compact entry level machine, the SWG-N2 series is perfect for knitting companies searching for ways to distinguish their services, the company reports. On demand knitting capability of Wholegarment combined with the great flexibility of SWG-N2 in producing a variety of items, such as gloves, socks, leggings, hats and mufflers, as well as childrenswear, provide new business opportunities as well.

The latest in conventional knitting is represented by the SVR122 computerised knitting machine, featuring Shima Seiki technology, such as the patented Digital Stitch Control System (DSCS), SpringType Sinker System, Stitch Presser, Yarn Gripper and Cutter and Takedown Comb. “Made in Japan quality, reliability, productivity, user-friendliness and cost-performance combine to satisfy the high standards expected by the fashion industry within Peru and beyond,” the manufacturer says.

Knit samples highlighting the cutting edge in computerised knitting technology will also be on display. Items produced on Shima Seiki’s flagship MACH2XS Wholegarment knitting machine, as well as samples knitted on SRY series and SVR-SP model featuring inlay technique that yield hybrid knit-weave fabrics, and new i-Plating technique will also be featured.

Also on display will be the SDS-ONE APEX3 3D design system. Key to Shima Seiki’s Total Fashion System concept, APEX3 integrates all stages of apparel production into one smooth and efficient workflow through comprehensive support from planning and design to production and sales promotion. With ultrarealistic product simulations, APEX3 is also capable of Virtual Sampling that helps minimise the costly time and resource consuming sample-making process.
