DU 1181 Industrial Lockstitch Machine

Higher lift of the presser foot

The lift of the presser foot, by the knee lifter, is as high as 15 mm so as to support processes which require a higher lift of the presser foot, such as piping and tape-attaching.

The maximum stitch length is 9 mm

With its stitch length being as large as 9 mm, the machine is applicable to a broader range of sewing processes.

The double-capacity hook is provided as standard

The machine comes with a horizontal-axis double-capacity hook, not only to decrease the frequency of bobbin thread changing, but also to enable sewing work with increased efficiency.

Automatic lubricating mechanism

A pump-unit type automatic lubricating mechanism dramatically improves maintainability. The oil amount in the face plate and hook is adjustable.

Excellent operability

• The stitch pitch can be adjusted in both the normal and reverse directions.
• The height and inclination of the feed dog can be adjusted.
• The amount of the alternating vertical movement of the walking foot and presser foot is adjustable in a range of 2 to 5mm according to the height of a multi-layered section of material.
• The horizontal feed cam, top and bottom feed cam and top feed cam can be adjusted after opening the rubber caps (three caps) on top of the machine head.

This light weight industrial machine inherits the desirable features, such as highspeed stitching performance 5,500 stitches per minute of extreme stitching performance, ease of operation, and reliability, from the highly evaluated previous JUKI lockstitch machines. This machine has easy-to-operate functions to achieve improved operability. 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 a guide for seam allowance, and other easy-to-operate functions, the burden on the operator is lightened, and productivity is further increased.
