Dear Mr./Ms. Furkan Can Altiparmak,
Leading flat knitting solutions provider SHIMA SEIKI MFG., LTD. of Wakayama, Japan
announces the release of its new "APEXFiz" subscription-based design software.
APEXFiz is intended to aid in the digital transformation of the fashion industry.
APEXFiz is the latest addition to SHIMA SEIKI's proven SDS-ONE APEX series design
system lineup, but with an unprecedented twist. Whereas previous APEX-series design
systems were offered as an all-in-one proprietary hardware/software 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 of the "new normal," including teleworking and telecommuting. 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 software supports the creative side of fashion from planning and design to
colorway evaluation, realistic fabric simulation and 3D virtual sampling. Otherwise
known as "digital twins," virtual samples are a digitized version of sample making that
allows visual confirmation of garment designs without the need for knitting physical
samples. Virtual sampling on APEXFiz is also a communication tool that is not only an
accurate representation of the product, but it also digitally bridges the gap between the
studio and the factory. By sending data to the knit manufacturer it can be converted to
machine programming data, shortening lead times and allowing the production of items
faithful to their design as originally intended by the designer. This accuracy allows virtual
samples on APEXFiz to be used effectively as prototypes, replacing physical sampling
and consequently reducing time, cost and material that are otherwise wasted. APEXFiz
thereby helps to realize sustainability and digitally transform the fashion supply chain.
APEXFiz is supported by two other web services to enhance its user experience.
"yarnbank" is the world's first online web service for searching and viewing the latest
yarns, developed with cooperation from yarn companies from around the world.
Registered users can download yarn data for free, for use in fabric simulation and virtual
sampling on APEXFiz, avoiding the need to scan yarn on their own. By using yarn that is
used in actual production, designers and apparel companies can furthermore rest
assured that the simulations created using yarn from yarnbank are not merely realistic
images but accurate representations using yarn that can actually be purchased and used
in production. "SHIMANAVI" e-learning system allows APEXFiz users to experience
online training when and where it is convenient, and at their own pace, supporting "new
normal: work styles. SHIMANAVI features several courses available in different
languages to suit the needs of individual customers as well.
