New-Tech GC-1508NH

is an industrial workhorse designed for high-tension sewing on extra-heavyweight materials. Built with a unison-feed (triple-feed) system, it utilizes a specialized rectangular feeding motion that ensures consistent stitch quality and prevents material gathering, even when navigating bulky seams. This complete workstation includes a heavy-duty table and an adjustable-speed Servo Motor, offering the precision and power required for professional upholstery, automotive, and leather fabrication. 

 

  • Superior Unison Feed System: Combines needle feed, walking foot, and bottom feed to eliminate fabric shifting and ensure smooth movement of heavy, multi-layered materials. 
  • Rectangular Feed Locus: Unlike traditional elliptical feeds, the rectangular motion provides a consistent feed stroke, significantly reducing stitch gathering and maintaining precise pitch. 
  • Extra-Large Steel Handwheel: Equipped with a high-torque 175mm diameter handwheel, providing manual power and control for ultra-thick sections. 
  • Extended Needle Stroke: Features a 38mm needle bar stroke and uses long 190R needles to penetrate the toughest industrial fabrics. 
  • Vertical-Axis Double Capacity Hook: Reduces bobbin changes by 50% compared to standard hooks, increasing efficiency during long production runs. 
  • Safety Clutch Mechanism: Automatically protects the hook from damage if a thread jam occurs, easily resettable with a single button. 
  • Adjustable Walking Foot Height: A convenient dial on top of the machine allows you to adjust the foot's climbing height to clear thick seams without snagging.

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.

THE ADVANTAGES OF A SERVO MOTOR
