Yamato VC Series
is an industry-leading multi-needle cylinder bed machine designed for high-efficiency elastic tape insertion and attaching. This specialized workstation is engineered for tubular sewing on small garments, such as men’s briefs, sweatpants, and children’s wear.
Featuring Yamato’s legendary high-speed performance, the VC series utilizes a cylinder bed shape that allows operators to handle circular materials with ease. The integrated Rear Puller system ensures uniform feeding of the elastic tape and fabric, preventing twisting and ensuring a consistent, beautiful finish even on high-stretch materials.
- Small Cylinder Bed Design: Specifically shaped for tubular sewing, making it effortless to insert elastic into pre-closed waistbands and leg openings.
- Integrated Rear Puller (P-Type): Provides powerful, synchronized traction to ensure flat, pucker-free seams and consistent gathering of the elastic.
- Multi-Needle Versatility: Available in 4-needle and 5-needle configurations to provide multiple rows of durable double-chain stitching in a single pass.
- Left-Hand Knife Trimming (Optional/Sub-model): Some models feature a left-hand knife that trims the folded edge of the material while sewing, eliminating the need for a separate serging process.
- Electronic Servo Motor: Includes a 110V/220V energy-efficient servo motor, offering adjustable speed control, silent operation, and high-torque needle penetration.
- Automatic Lubrication System: A fully automatic oil-pump system ensures all vital internal components remain cooled and lubricated during 5,000+ SPM production.
- Optional Automation: Compatible with air-operated automatic thread trimmers (UT-A50) and folder sliders (AS3) to further deskill the operation and increase output.

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
Because of the Servo motor speed control, most users find the machine more straightforward to use. Both beginning and seasoned sewers find this feature helpful when stitching projects that don't demand high-speed stitching.
They use up to 90% less power than clutch motors
They are 1/3 lighter than clutch motors
With a flick of the switch, you can reverse motor rotation
No parts to wear out or adjust
No matter how hard you press the foot pedal, the configured speed remains the same.
