Developed originally as pattern preparation systems for knitting machines, Shima Seiki's computer graphic systems have evolved to minister to the most demanding design-oriented industries worldwide. What differentiates our products from others' is our steadfast policy of developing both hardware and software in-house. While other manufacturers are resorting to software development alone, Shima Seiki has the resources to continue in-house development of hardware AND software. This effectively maximizes compatibility and creates an optimum hardware environment for bringing out the software's true potential. The result is an ideal combination of power, speed, functionality and user-friendliness ideal for applications customized to such design-specific industries.
