It is possible to display pressure points across the fabric, which is useful for product design.
The New Mobility
— Automotive —
SHIMA SEIKI products can be used to improve automobile production.
A new future in mobility is possible
with our design systems and software, computerized knitting machines and cutting machines.
Knit It
Compared to woven fabrics, shaped knitting
can produce items to shape,
shortening lead time significantly.
Hybrid fabrics featuring
unprecedented textures
that combine knits and wovens can be produced.
Why knit with SHIMA SEIKI?
WHOLEGARMENT® can produce items
in one entire piece three-dimensionally,
for shortened lead times and cost savings.
Attractive designs for vehicle interiors
that meet brand new needs
for the imminent EV age are possible as well.
Design It
With the SDS®-ONE APEX series design system
and software, designs can be evaluated
during the planning and design stages
using "virtual samples" created by simulations.
The need for sampling is eliminated
because it is realistic enough to be regarded
as an actual product, which can shorten
lead times for product development.
In addition, accurate digital communication
can be achieved by using SDS®-ONE APEX series
by material maker, planner, and producer.
Fabric image can be pasted onto 3D data, which can be used for checking and examining the final product image.
Cut It
Production of automotive products can be further automated.
SHIMA SEIKI offers a comprehensive lineup of machines
that supports various customer needs.
