日本Wakayama - 2021年6月8日 - 平面针织解决方案提供商Shima Seiki Mfg。，Ltd。日本Wakayama及其香港的子公司Shima Seiki（香港）有限公司将参加ITMA Asia + Citme 2020年展览，该展览将于6月在中国上海的国家展览和会议中心举行。
Through its exhibit theme—Step Beyond—SHIMA SEIKI will present its vision of the future, while addressing a variety of solutions for the new normal, including proposals in Factory Automation, Digital Transformation (DX), and various online solutions.
工厂自动化已成为纺织工业中的一个流行语，由于COVID-19的大流行，人们对此的兴趣加速了。在ITMA亚洲，我们将提出针对围绕我们全球编织机的特殊制造能力的工厂自动化提案。Thulgarment®针织品可以在整件中编织，而无需连接或缝制，并可以按需编织。作为完整服装技术的开拓者，拥有超过2700份专利和25年的田野经验，Shima Seiki将以两台最新机器的形式呈现其Wholegarment®编织技术。旗舰MACH2XS是世界上最先进的扁平针织机，具有专有的四针床和Slideneedle™技术，并与弹簧型可移动沉降机和I-DSCS+DTC®数字缝制控制系统相结合，具有智能和动态紧张控制系统，并且能够制作全面编织全加利福尼亚项目。MACH2XS以Ultrafine 18L仪表呈现，在中国首次显示。MACH2V也是在中国首次显示的，这是一台灵活的V型机器，能够使用其他所有针编织全球编织®针织服装，或使用所有针编织形状编织。它还具有弹簧型可移动沉降机和具有智能和动态张力控制的I-DSCS+DTC®数字针迹控制系统。MACH2Vs以自动纱载体作为原型选项的超级条款18G表示。
The large number of patents for WHOLEGARMENT® technology is not limited to mechanical hardware, but span the range of software and programming, as well as stitch structures and knitting techniques. A variety of WHOLEGARMENT® knitwear samples featuring these patents are presented at the SHIMA SEIKI booth as well.
itmaAsia will also be the occasion for a sneak preview of next-Generation 4-bed WHOLEGARMENT® knitting technology. Considering the recent increase in interest for WHOLEGARMENT® as a manufacturing method suited to the new normal, competing companies are slowly making their debut in complete garment knitting. This next generation in WHOLEGARMENT® technology ensures that SHIMA SEIKI remains many a Step Beyond the competition in the technology it originally pioneered. next-generation WHOLEGARMENT® technology also prepares SHIMA SEIKI for when the industry eventually takes a Step Beyond conventional knitting to adopt zero-waste sustainable WHOLEGARMENT® knitting as the next standard for knit fashion. The new machine is named SWG-XR, adopting the SWG moniker from the first-generation WHOLEGARMENT® knitting machine introduced back in 1995. The “X” represents 4 needle beds arranged in an X- shaped formation as per the original SWG-X machine, while “R” stands for Reborn and Revolution, referring to a renewal of SHIMA SEIKI’s WHOLEGARMENT® knitting that raises the technology to unprecedented levels. By increasing the number of systems from 3 to 4 and featuring auto yarn carriers, SWG-XR allows even higher productivity and vastly improved range of knitting for producing brand new WHOLEGARMENT® items not possible before.
In order to further support efforts in DX in the fashion industry, SHIMA SEIKI has released three new online services over the past year which will also be showcased at ITMA Asia: ‘APEXFiz™’ subscription-based design software; ‘yarn- bank™’ digital yarn sourcing web service; and ‘SHIMAnAVI™’ e-learning service.
APEXFiz™ is the latest addition to SHIMA SEIKI’s proven SDS®-ONE APEX series design system lineup, but with a big departure from the past. Whereas previous APEX-series design systems were offered as an all-in-one hardware/soft- ware package, for the first time in its nearly 40 years of design system development, SHIMA SEIKI has released its new APEXFiz™ as subscription-based design software that can be installed on customers’ individual computers. Maintaining proven functions that have made the APEX series so popular with fashion designers, with APEXFiz™ those strengths are now enhanced with the added versatility to adapt to different work styles and business environments including tele- working and telecommuting. APEXFiz™ software supports the creative side of fashion from planning and design to col orway evaluation, realistic fabric simulation and 3D virtual sampling. Virtual samples are a digitized version of sample making that are accurate enough to be used effectively as prototypes, replacing physical sampling and consequently reducing time, cost and material that otherwise go to waste. APEXFiz™ thereby helps to realize sustainability and digi- tally transform the fashion supply chain. APEXFiz™ is furthermore available in 5 different product variations that can be selected according to the customer’s needs, from APEXFiz™ Design Jr. to APEXFiz™ Design Pro.
Apexfiz™得到了其他两种Web服务的支持，以增强其用户体验。Yarnbank™是世界上第一款用于搜索和查看最新纱线的在线网络服务，该纱线与来自世界各地的纱线公司合作开发。注册用户可以免费下载纱线数据，以便在Apexfiz™上用于织物仿真和虚拟采样，从而避免需要自行扫描纱线。通过使用实际生产中使用的纱线，设计师和服装公司可以放心地知道使用Yarnbank™纱线创建的仿真可以准确地代表实际生产的模拟。借助Yarnbank™，可以通过数字连接纱线公司和服装公司到编织制造商的整个供应链。
Lastly, SHIMANAVI™ e-learning service allows APEXFiz™ users to experience online training when and where it is con- venient, and at their own pace, supporting new work styles. SHIMANAVI™ features several courses available in different languages to suit the needs of individual customers.
Shima Seiki将在D05展位4厅展出。ITMA亚洲在世界各地的Covid-19冠状病毒大流行期间举行，肯定会根据参展商的数量，展览区以及游客的数量以及他们参观的国家数量来缩减。实际上，由于旅行限制，假定大多数国际客户将无法参加演出。因此，我们已经准备了一个在线展位，访问者可以在以下URL上通过Internet查看我们的展览：https：//www.shimaseiki.com/itmaasia2020/
