With its reliable feed and consistent seam quality, the machine responds outstandingly to the sewing of heavy materials.With its larger needlebar stroke, higher presser foot lift, and newly adopted double-tension mechanism, the machine offers excellent sewing capabilities and responsiveness.
With its powerful top & bottom feed mechanism, the Juki DU-1181 series smoothly sews difficult to feed materials or multi-layered materials without pitch problems resulting in highly consistent, precise seams - a must with today's vigilant consumers. Features high presser foot positioning to accommodate piping or taping work, up to 9mm stitch lengths for broader ranges of sewing applications and large capacity horizontal hook; all contributing to efficient production and high quality finishing on heavier duty sewing demands.
Excellent sewing capabilities and feed performance
The alternating vertical movements of the walking foot and presser foot are as large as 6.5mm.
In addition, the ratio between alternating vertical movements of the walking foot and presser foot remains unchanged even when the material thickness changes. Thanks to this feature and the adoption of a new method of rectangular feed that prevents needle from fraying, the machine sews multi-layered parts of a material with consistent stitching pitch while preventing stitch gathering.
High-speed performance increases productivity
The machine delivers increased productivity at sewingspeeds as high as 2,500sti/min (DNU-1541).
Safety mechanism (DNU-1541S)
When the thread is caught in the hook or any other sewing trouble occurs, the safety mechanism will automatically operate to prevent the machine from being damaged.
The vertical stroke of the walking foot and presser foot can be easily set and changed
The vertical stroke of the presser foot and walking foot (amount of alternating vertical movement) can be easily changed with the large dial mounted on the top of the machine head. The sewing speed is automatically regulated based on the vertical stroke setting. This ensures ideal sewing conditions at all times.
A helpful automatic reverse feed function is provided as standard
With just a light press on the one-touch type reverse feed button, reverse feed stitching is actuated. Furthermore, if a suspended ruler is attached on the machine or a 3-dimensional sewing product is sewn, the button can be shifted upward to prevent interruption.
Excellent operability and maintainability
The stitch length can be easily selected by the stitch dial.
The machine's enhanced operability features include a clear view of the area around the needle, placement of the bobbin thread winder on the front face of the machine arm, and a large handwheel (φ160mm).
A knee-lifter mechanism is built in the bed. This reduces the pressure required to operate the knee-lifter and facilitates setup.
The machine’s full-open-type top cover design makes adjusting works easier.
The machine comes with a lubricating mechanism that uses a centralized oil wick. This substantially reduces the time and trouble required for oiling the machine. (Hook : automatic.)
A walking foot mechanism is built into the machine arm to prevent oil from scattering
The area around the needle entry is designed to be easilyobserved
Since the needle thread tension-release solenoid is fitted on the rear face of the machine head, the area around the needle entry and one-touch type reverse feed button is easily viewable. This substantially contributes to improved operability.
This machine comes complete with head, stand, wood table top and cotton stand. This machine comes with an energy saving servo speed adjustable silent motor, proven to save up to 20% electricity when compared with a standard motor!
- This machine comes with a 12 month back to base guarantee
