Product features
The sewing machine has been specifically designed for being capable of placing the next sewing pocket while engaging in placing the current pocket which is preliminary folded by a pocket folding machine on a garment body and sewing it. The machine is a state-of-the-art sewing machine which achieves consistent quality and higher productivity.
Higher productivity
The maximum sewing speed of the sewing machine is 4,000 sti/min. The sewing machine demonstrates excellent productivity, with its high-speed feed, its mechanical operation with unwasted motion, and its cycle time of approximately 9.9 sec./pocket.

Operation panel
The machine has adopted the operation panel IP-420 with a large color liquid crystal display. Now, it is possible to input/modify sewing data on the main body of the sewing machine. In addition, the operation panel supports USB. Various USB flash devices are applicable.
Active tension mechanism
The machine has adopted JUKI's unique active tension mechanism for its needle tension control. The active tension mechanism controls the needle thread tension according to sewing conditions such as the type of material and sewing section of the material, thereby achieving upgraded seam quality.
Basic performance
Sewing area is broadened
The sewing area is as wide as 250 mm × 250 mm. The machine can now sew large pockets.
Encoder control
The machine has adopted the stepping motor with an encoder for the X-Y feed drive. The motor drives the machine using the minimum electric power according the material weight and stitch length, thereby contributing to reduced power consumption.
