Announcement of the release of the knit-specific software 'SDS KnitPaint-Online'
SHIMA SEIKI MFG., LTD.
We will release the programming-specific software <SDS KnitPaint-Online>, which independently features the knitting data creation application 'KnitPaint' included in the All-in-One design system <SDS-ONE APEX> series, as well as <SDS KnitPaint-Online Collar> specifically for the collar knitting machine N.SSR072. SDS KnitPaint-Online automatically creates patterns through style selection and dimension input, and design data can also be utilized as programming data. It supports programming with built-in knitting know-how and features such as 'Knitting Assist', which detects errors in advance, and 'Knitting Viewer', which allows you to check the movement of needles and yarn in 3D. Additionally, it offers functions for confirming the completed image through loop simulation and design consideration. On the other hand, SDS KnitPaint-Online Collar focuses on the essential functions needed for collar programming, prioritizing usability. Both software can be installed on PCs, accommodating various work styles at home or in the workplace, and supporting the creation of products as envisioned. Release date: June 9, 2025.
