JUKI’s unique feed mechanism promises excellent efficiency of feed. The LU-1509N is applicable to an extended range of extra heavy materials for industrial use, such as cargo handling belts and containers, as well as those for general use, such as car seats, sofas and bags, thereby contributing to both improved quality and increased productivity.
The mechanism with a rectangular feeding motion promises consistent feed of materials of all thickness without stitch gathering. The lower orbit of the feed dog prevents the material from flopping and reduces operating noise and vibration.
The machine has adopted a new mechanism that does not change the ratio of alternate vertical movement of the walking foot and presser foot regardless material thickness. Even when a heavy-weight material is being used, the presser foot comes into contact with the material at exactly the same time that it does when sewing lighter-weight sections of the material. As a result, the walking foot retains the material with a consistent pressure to prevent irregular stitches.
The 1-needle type machine has adopted a dual-tension mechanism, with which the machine can support high-tension sewing with thick thread. This means that the machine produces seams of excellent quality on a broader range of materials from light- to heavy-weight.
