Leading Japanese flat knitting solutions provider Shima Seiki, together with its Brazilian representative Brastema Tecnologia Têxtil Ltda., will host the Tech Fashion show events, a series of private exhibitions held at two locations in Brazil this July and August.

The exhibitions will be a showcase for the company’s latest computerised flat knitting technology, presented through fashion shows, machine exhibits and the latest knit samples that featured at last month’s ITMA 2023 in Milan. The event is being organised by the Fashion Committee of Fitemavest, consultants to Brazil's fashion market, and will feature presentations by CS Design Studio designer Cecilia Seibel.

Technological displays include a full line-up of Shima Seiki flat knitting machines, ranging from the MACH2XS WHOLEGARMENT knitting machine to N.SVR122 computerised shaping machine, as well as the SFG-I fully automated glove knitting machine. Exhibited machines vary between locations. Details are given below under ‘Exhibited Technology.’

The potential of each of these knitting machines are maximised in combination with the SDS-ONE APEX4 3D design system and APEXFiz design software. At the core of the company’s Total Fashion System concept, SDS-ONE APEX4 and APEXFiz provide comprehensive support throughout the apparel supply chain, integrating production into one smooth and efficient workflow from yarn development, product planning and design to production and even sales promotion.

Especially effective is their capability to improve on the design and evaluation process with virtual sampling. Ultra-realistic simulation capability on SDS-ONE APEX4 and APEXFiz allows virtual sampling to minimise the amount of time, cost and material spent during the sample-making process. With this new manufacturing model, the production cycle can be shortened to such an extent that on-demand production can revolutionise the supply chain to support mass-customisation and increasing consumer demand for e-commerce applications.

The fashion show will feature the newest creations in WHOLEGARMENT and other knitwear.
