Description

Thanks to its high post-bed, the machine can flexibly respond to difficult processes

The newly developed high post-bed machine has a post with a compact-finished top to support difficult sewing processes that conventional machines can’t handle such as bottom sewing or gore sewing. The distance from the needle entry to the right end of the bed, the most important design feature of the machine, is as short as 2.8 mm. The Juki PLC-1690 Lockstitch Machine comes in two different types: one with a “flat-surface type (S)” and another with a “curved-surface type (A).” You can select the type that best fits your needs. The PLC-1691 features a vertical-axis standard hook with a minimized top-end post. Its outstanding sharp-curve sewing capability and compound feed system enable sewing of various articles, including bags with narrow gores.

Full-featured basic performance

The walking foot machine is designed to handle the basic processes required for the sewing of bags. With the new increase in the alternating vertical movement of the walking foot and presser foot to a maximum of 7mm, the machine can now handle sewing materials with many multi-layered portions. In addition, the lift of the presser foot is large* enough to allow the operator to easily set and remove sewing materials on the machine. *PLC-1690S:15mm PLC-1690A, PLC-1691:10.5mm

The machine head structure delivers upgraded operability

A bobbin winder mounts on the front surface of the machine arm. The stitch dial adjusts stitch length. In addition, the large-sized handwheel turns easily for one-stitch sewing.
