Yamato DT Series 

is a specialized industrial workhorse designed for high-speed felling and lap-seaming operations. Its unique Feed-off-the-arm (cylindrical arm) geometry allows operators to sew tubular sections—such as trouser legs and jacket sleeves—without having to turn the garment inside out, significantly boosting productivity. 

Equipped with a Differential Feed mechanism and an Upper Driven Feed Roller (Puller), the DT series handles thick, multi-layered seams (like denim crotches) with ease, preventing material twisting and ensuring a clean, "pucker-free" finish. Paired with a modern Electronic Servo Motor, this machine provides silent operation and precise speed control for the most demanding production lines. 

  • Feed-off-the-arm Geometry: The cylindrical bed design eliminates the need for manual turning after felling, making it the perfect solution for sleeves, side seams, and inseams. 
  • Upper Driven Feed Roller: The integrated puller system ensures that heavy-weight fabrics move accurately and evenly through the machine, even when crossing thick intersecting seams. 
  • 3-Needle Chainstitch Strength: Produces a durable, elastic double-chain stitch (Type 401) that can withstand the high-stress requirements of denim and utility workwear. 
  • Looper Uncoupling Device: Features a specialized "come-out" looper mechanism that simplifies threading, drastically reducing downtime for the operator. 
  • Differential Feed Dial: Allows for micro-adjustments to the feeding ratio via an external dial, ensuring perfectly flat seams across various fabric weights. 
  • Whisper-Quiet Servo Motor: The included 110V Servo Motor is 70% more energy-efficient than traditional clutch motors and allows for custom speed settings. 
  • Japanese Precision: Built with Yamato’s legendary Japanese engineering for superior durability in 24/7 manufacturing environments.

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.
