Meistergram GEM 1500  

is a heavy-duty, 15-needle commercial embroidery machine designed to deliver high-precision results in a compact, space-saving footprint. Built with industrial-grade Japanese components and a robust servo motor drive, the GEM 1500 is the perfect bridge between boutique output and high-volume industrial production. Whether you are processing corporate apparel, finished caps, or large-scale flat goods, this machine provides the speed (1,200 SPM) and stability required for non-stop commercial operation. 

Unlike entry-level machines, the GEM 1500 utilizes brass-inserted tension knobs for the smoothest possible thread delivery and an industrial-grade powder coat for maximum durability. With an on-board diagnostic system that provides real-time motor temperature readings and error logs, this machine is built for maximum up time and long-term reliability in a professional shop environment.

JUKI DDL-8700 FAQs

What kind of needles do you use in the DDL-8700?

The needles with your JUKI are the Organ DBx1, available on our website. This machine uses size 16×257, size 8 through 20 or 16×97. The 8700 can also use standard needles, sizes 9 through 21, universal or fabric-specific needles such as knit.

Where does the machine oil go?

A pan directly underneath the machine supplies oil to the machine with a cotton wick. Lift the machine up and over to access the oil tank while on the table. You must keep the machine’s oil level consistently at the «high» mark, either by adding more oil or draining it and refilling it as needed. If the oil pump can’t get the oil into the machine, it can cause serious problems later.

What kind of oil does this machine require?

You need a specific type, like motor oil in your car, to keep this machine running. The DDL-8700 requires JUKI New Defrix Oil No.1, equivalent to ISO VG7.

What size table can I get with this machine?

Our table has legs and is 22"w x 47"l. It includes a knee and foot pedals and a left-hand drawer for accessories.

Does the DDL 8700 make buttonholes?

No. The 8700 only does straight stitching, with a horizontal bar on the right side for a reverse stitch.
