Industrial Machine
How Juki Industrial Machines Are Shipped and Packaged
Juki industrial machine heads are packed in a secured box or crate and will be shipped under the assembled table on a skid or pallet. the customer is responsible for installing the machine head into the table, connecting the motor belt/belt guard and assembling the thread tree using the included hardware. The only exception to this would be the LK-1900B which ships completely assembled due to the more difficult set up.
Disclaimer: Due to the weight of the table with motor, there might be some minor marring or scratches due to shipping. This is normal when shipping industrial machines because of the weight associated with the items. Some machines may be subject to additional freight shipping where the machine is shipped via a crate due to the size and weight. Freight Charges Apply: After your purchase, we will contact you with the final freight amount. Please select “Freight Charges” upon check-out starting at $150; the minimum charge.

Juki DDL-8700 High-speed, 1-needle, Lockstitch Machine
JUKI's newly designed unique lockstitch high-speed sewing machine is perfectly designed for creating 21st century fashion
The optimum-balance and highly rigid machine head were created using the latest 3D-CAD design technology. Thanks to its low vibration and low noise feature, the machine head provides the operator with a comfortable work environment. In addition, the distance from the machine arm to the needle on the front of the machine head is sufficiently wide to allow easy handling of the sewing material. The Juki DDL-8700 industrial sewing machine for sale inherits all the desirable features, such as high-speed stitching performance 5,500sti/min, extreme stitching performance, ease of operation, and reliability, from the highly evaluated previous JUKI lockstitch machines.

Table and Motor may differ from the image shown.
Outstanding responsiveness to the materials being sewn
By thoroughly investigating and modifying the sewing mechanisms in order to achieve low-tension sewing, this Juki DDL-8700 industrial sewing machine flexibly responds to various kinds of materials and produces beautiful seams of consistent quality.

Easy to maintain
Enhanced maintainability is ensured by the improved machine head, such as incorporation of an eccentric pin that is used to adjust the feed dog. In addition, the machine is provided with a mounting seat for attachment to improve workability while replacing the attachment and increasing the durability of the machine bed surface.

Easy to operate
By providing a presser foot with a higher lift (13mm), a light-touch stitch dial, a throat plate with marker grooves that can be used as guide for seam allowance, and other easy-to-operate functions, the burden on the operator is lightened, and productivity is further increased.
Motor Options
Some other advantages of the Servo Motor include:
- They consume up to 90% less energy than clutch motors
- 1/3 lighter than clutch motors
- Reverse motor rotation with the flick of a switch
- Nothing to wear or adjust
- Adjusted speed remains the same no matter how hard the pedal is pressed
Most of our customers find the Juki DDL-8700 sewing machine much easier to control with a Servo motor, thanks to its speed control. This is especially helpful for beginner sewers but also for projects that simply don't require high speed stitching.
