For each of these machines, Made-in-Japan quality, reliability, productivity, user-friendliness and cost-performance combine to satisfy the high expectations of the world’s fashion industry, the company reports.

Also on display is the SDS-ONE APEX3 3D design system. At the core of Shima Seiki’s Total Fashion System concept, APEX3 is designed to integrate all stages of apparel production into one smooth and efficient workflow from planning and design to production and sales promotion.
