Yamata FY-781D 

is a semi-automatic industrial lockstitch buttonhole machine designed for high-efficiency production in the apparel industry. This modern "D" version features an Integrated Direct-Drive Servo Motor, eliminating the noise, vibration, and energy loss associated with traditional belt-driven systems. 

Whether you are finishing dress shirts, blouses, or workwear, the FY-781D delivers consistent, beautiful stitches across a wide range of materials, from light knits to medium-heavy cottons. Its adjustable parameters and automatic productivity features make it an essential tool for factories aiming to reduce operator fatigue and maximize output. 

  • Integrated Direct-Drive Motor: The motor is built directly into the machine head, providing a 70% reduction in electricity consumption and near-silent operation compared to old-school clutch motors. 
  • Rapid Startup & Stop: The electronic control system allows the machine to reach its top speed of 3,600 SPM almost instantly, significantly increasing cycles per hour. 
  • Adjustable Buttonhole Size: Easily adjust the buttonhole length from a minimum of 1/4" (6.4mm) to a maximum of 3/4" (20mm) to accommodate various button styles. 
  • 4-Cam Interchangeable System: Includes 4 different cams that allow you to customize the number of stitches per buttonhole based on your fabric requirements. 
  • Automatic Thread Trimmer: A standard feature that ensures clean finishes and eliminates the need for manual thread nipping after each cycle. 
  • High-Quality "Purl" Stitches: Produces firm, triangle-ended or flat-ended stitches that maintain the structural integrity of the garment through years of use. 
  • Reduced Operator Fatigue: The rapid electromagnet drawbar and light-touch pedals minimize the physical effort required for high-volume shifts. 
  • Max Sewing Speed : 3,600 SPM (Stitches Per Minute) 
  • Buttonhole Length : 1/4" to 3/4" (6.4mm – 20mm) 
  • Bar-Tack Width : 2.5mm – 5.0mm 
  • Needle System : DP x 5 (#11 – #14) 
  • Clearance Under Foot : 12mm 
  • Stitch Count : Adjustable via gear/cam exchange 
  • Lubrication : Automatic High-Pressure Oil Pump 
  • Motor Type : 550W Direct-Drive Servo (110V) 

The FY-781D is specialized for: 

  • Dress Shirts & Blouses: Clean, high-speed buttonholes in cotton, silk, and synthetic blends. 
  • Workwear & Overalls: Durable reinforced buttonholes for heavy-duty garments. 
  • Knitwear: Specialized cams and plate designs prevent thread breakage and fabric distortion on stretch materials. 
  • Apparel Manufacturing: Any high-volume environment requiring consistent, repeatable buttonhole quality.

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.
