Seiko BEW-8BLE  

is a premium high-speed flatbed sewing machine designed for professional heavy-duty manufacturing. By combining a compound feed (needle feed) with a walking foot mechanism, it ensures that multiple layers of heavy materials—like leather, vinyl, and canvas—are fed with absolute precision and zero ply-shift. Its standout feature is the large vertical-axis hook, which holds twice the thread of a standard bobbin, making it the ideal choice for high-volume production of automotive interiors, furniture upholstery, and heavy-duty gear. 

  • High-Speed Performance: Engineered for efficiency, capable of reaching speeds up to 2,500 SPM, significantly faster than standard walking foot machines. 
  • Large Vertical Axis Hook (2.0x): The high-capacity bobbin system reduces the frequency of thread changes, which is vital when using thick industrial threads. 
  • Compound Feed/Walking Foot: Synchronized movement of the needle, feed dog, and presser foot ensures consistent stitching even on "climbing" transitions or slippery synthetics. 
  • Safety Clutch Mechanism: Protects the internal timing and hook from damage by automatically disengaging if the machine experiences a thread jam. 
  • Quiet-Run Servo Motor: The included 750W electronic servo motor provides silent operation, significant energy savings, and total speed control. 
  • Large Workspace: A generous 10-inch (255mm) throat space allows for easy handling of large fabric rolls and upholstery panels. 
  • Integrated Reverse Stitch: Features a robust reverse lever for easy backtacking and seam reinforcement. 
  • Max. Sewing Speed: 2,500 Stitches per Minute (SPM) 
  • Max. Stitch Length: 9mm (Forward and Reverse) 
  • Needle Bar Stroke: 34mm 
  • Needle System: DPx17 (#18 to #25) / 135x17 
  • Max. Thread Size: Up to #5 (Standard #8) 
  • Hook Type: Large Vertical Axis Hook (2.0x Capacity) 
  • Presser Foot Lift: 9mm (Hand) / 16mm (Knee) 
  • Amount of Alternating Movement: 1mm – 7mm 
  • Working Space: 255mm x 100mm (10" x 4") 
  • Lubrication: Semi-Automatic (Gears and hook) 

The BEW series is the primary choice for flat-panel heavy-duty assembly: 

  • Automotive Upholstery: Creating durable, perfectly spaced topstitching on car seats and door panels. 
  • Furniture & Home Decor: Seaming heavy leather sofas, canvas cushions, and outdoor umbrellas. 
  • Marine & Aviation: Heavy-weight covers, boat seating, and aircraft interior upholstery. 
  • Technical Gear: Manufacturing tents, tactical vests, and heavy-duty sports equipment.

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.
