Are you a home sewer considering moving up from a domestic sewing machine to something that can handle larger projects like quilts? Or, are you looking for a new sewing machine for your business?
Professional shops, design schools, and home sewers interested in a sewing machine that handles straight lockstitching for as much as a half-inch of fabric will appreciate the Juki DDL-8700. Solidly built, this machine works quickly with consistent stitching that makes anything you sew look professional and well made.
The Juki DDL-8700 can handle many types of lockstitch sewing for light to medium-weight fabrics.
With a maximum sewing speed of 5,000 spm and a maximum stitch length of 5mm, the DDL—8700 can handle all the straight lockstitching you need. It has a throat space of 10.5″ to handle a larger amount of fabric. The throat plate has marker grooves with different seam widths for easy reference. Need to sew something a little heavier? The throat plate and feed dogs can be exchanged for thicker ones.
Bobbins wind quickly with the built-in winder that sits on the right side of the head. Simply thread the bobbin, wind it a little, put it onto the spindle, push it in place, and touch the foot pedal for a fast refill.
The LED light means you’ll have an easier time seeing what you’re sewing.
This moderately priced industrial machine also has low vibration and high responsiveness that consistently produces the best seaming.
DDL 8700: Timing is for a size 9-18 needle. 16×257 needle system (thinner shank needle). The regular version is general purpose and designed to sew garment fabrics using TEX 40 thread and lower.
DDL 8700H: Timing is for size 16-22. 135×5 needle system (thicker needle shank). Comes with Heavier feed dogs, heavier stitch plate, larger foot and higher needle stroke. The H version is designed to sew Denim and materials that require using thicker thread up to size 92 (TEX 90).
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 machine inherits the desirable features, such as high-speed stitching performance 5,000sti/min, extreme stitching performance, ease of operation, and reliability, from the highly evaluated previous JUKI lockstitch machines. (DDL-8700: 5,000 sti/min.)
By thoroughly investigating and modifying the sewing mechanisms in order to achieve low-tension sewing, the machine flexibly responds to various kinds of materials and produces beautiful seams of consistent quality.
The machine is provided as standard with extra attachment mounting seats for attachment of new auxiliary parts in the future. The extremely high durability of the seats ensures an extended service with frequent replacement of attachments..
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.
Thanks to the speed control feature, most users find the machine easier to use. Both beginner and advanced sewers find this feature helpful when stitching projects that require high-speed and precise stitching.
Besides any applicable warranties provided by the Original Manufacturer, Jacksew offers a standalone 90-day limited warranty on defects in materials and workmanship.
This warranty covers all the machine parts and labor but any shipping costs must be covered by the customer
Only applies under normal sewing conditions as prescribed for the machine
Consumable items are not covered (needles, bobbins, bobbin cases, springs, oil, and belts)
This warranty does not cover improper use or abuse under heavy use of machines
This warranty does not cover flood, fire, or other acts of nature
If there are any warranty issues that arise, we ask that you contact us immediately and let us know the details. In most cases, we can guide you with getting your machine in good sewing condition via phone, text or video chat.
If you need any parts that need to be replaced, we stock the majority of parts for immediate shipment. Some parts not in stock may have to be ordered from the manufacturer and may take 1 to 2 weeks for arrival.
If there is a critical issue that needs to be addressed and is out of scope of minor adjustments or repairs, we will ask you to send us the machine to our shop so we can have it repaired and have it back to good sewing condition. In most cases, we will only need the machine head shipped to us. Shipping charges - both inbound and outbound - are the responsibility of the customer.
Warranty issues do not arise frequently because of our commitment to assemble, test and verify each machine we ship out to our customers. We will never send you a machine directly from the manufacturer in boxes without knowing that the machine will be ready to operate upon arrival.
