Juki LU-1508N Lockstitch Machine
1-needle, Unison-feed, Lockstitch Machine with Vertical-axis Large Hook
JUKI's unique feed mechanism promises excellent efficiency of feed. In addition to the standard models of 1-needle machine, other models intended for special purposes are available, including models for extra heavy materials and one having a thread trimmer. The machine is applicable to an extended range of 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.
A new feed mechanism with a rectangular feeding motion prevents stitch gathering
- The new 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 alternating vertical movement mechanism prevents irregular stitches
- The machine has adopted a new mechanism that does not change the ratio of alternate vertical movement of the walking foot and presser foot even when the material thickness changes.
- Even when a heavy-weight material is used, the presser foot lift does not decrease. This means that 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 amount of the alternating vertical movement of the walking foot and presser foot can be adjusted up to the maximum of 6.5mm according to the height of multilayered portions of material.
Consistent seam quality
- With the adoption of a new rectangular feed mechanism, an alternating vertical movement mechanism, and a unison feed mechanism, the machine can feed heavy materials powerfully and smoothly. Well tensed seams are consistently produced without pitch errors.
- With its maximum stitch length of 9mm, the machine can be applied to a broader range of uses.
Higher lift of the presser foot
The high, 16mm foot lift enables easy material handling.
The machine comes with a dual-tension mechanism
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, extending from light- to heavy-weight.
The highly efficient vertical-axis double-capacity hook is equipped as standard
With the adoption of this vertical-axis double-capacity hook, the frequency of bobbin thread changing is reduced, promising sewing work of increased efficiency.

(for extra heavy materials)
- The maximum stitch length is 10mm. The complete rectangular feed locus enables accurate feed of extra heavy materials while preventing stitch gathering.
- With its sufficient needlebar stroke of 38mm and long 190R needle, the machine supports the sewing of extra heavy materials.
- The machine comes with an extra large steel handwheel with a diameter as large as φ175.
LU-1510N, LU-1511N Series
(with automatic lubricating mechanism)
- Automatic lubricating mechanism helps improve maintainability. The machine is provided with a sub oil pan and double filter to keep dust from entering the oil.
- The machine is equipped with a bottom- feed adjusting mechanism that adjusts the amount of bottom-feed while keeping the needle feed fixed. With this adjusting mechanism, the machine can prevent uneven material feed without changing stitch pitches.
