Wakayama - Computerized knitting machine manufacturer Shima Seiki will demonstrate its latest iPlating technology at a key exhibition in Indonesia next week.
The company will participate at the 17th edition of the Indo Intertex exhibition in Jakarta, together with its Indonesian representative BrothersIndo Machinery at the representative’s booth.
On display will be the latest SVR123SP computerized knitting machine which features a special loop presser bed, capable of producing hybrid inlay fabrics with both knit and weave characteristics.
Demand for such novel fabrics are very high across a wide range of applications, from fashion apparel to sportswear, innerwear, outerwear, uniforms and other functional clothing, as well as home furnishing and technical textiles.
Focusing on the sportswear manufacturing market in Indonesia and neighboring South East Asian industries, the SVR123SP at Indo Intertex will also feature the new iPlating option, capable of alternating yarn colors in any pattern, producing jacquard-like designs using plain jersey stitch.
With iPlating, plating can be performed within the same course and for individual needles for even greater diversity in knit design.
The latest sportswear samples produced on SVR123SP will be on display, as well as revolutionary seamfree WHOLEGARMENT knitwear which features superior fit, comfort and style that are ideal for sportswear.
The latest version of Shima Seiki’s 3D design system SDSONE APEX3 will also be exhibited. At the core of the company’s “Total Fashion System” concept, APEX3 provides comprehensive support throughout the product 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 the way APEX3 improves on the design evaluation process with its ultrarealistic simulation capability, whereby virtual samples minimize the need for actual sample-making.
This realizes significant savings in time, cost and material, contributing to sustainable manufacturing.Â
Indo Intertex takes place from 28 - 30 March at the Jakarta International Expo Gedung Pusat Niaga (Trade Mart Building) Arena JIEXPO, Kemayoran, Jakarta.
