Excellent for serious equipment as tactical belts,cordura rigs,molle Pouches special harness for millitary or police use etc. It can handle easy webbing like 13 type(7000 lbs) or type 7 with nylon threads.

Sometime make a video with an 8700, and show how SLOW it will stitch, by turning the survo motor down to it's slowest setting. So many of your videos only show machines running full blast.... no one sews like that... I want to see how SLOW it will stitch for precision, SLOW work, not "machine gun mode", thanks!.

JP Stone Thank you so much for your comment. 👍🏻 They always demonstrate multiple layers of straight material, lying flat. But what if you have multiple layers of webbing CROSSING each other, with some mesh or neoprene in the middle, and a D-ring to build in, and on top, having to sew it in a rounded shape? You want to make sure that the machine stops exactly when you release the pedal, not three stitches later, you want to know how SMALL of a stitch it can sew. And how slow. Those demonstrations always show the power of the machine, but you want your results to look professional, rather than getting it done in 15 instead of 30 seconds.

I have a small upholstery shop, I have a very old Juki LU563 walking foot machine. I am looking at getting a 2nd machine to use for light medium fabric. Should I consider the 555-, 8700 or 8700H? I'm wondering if the 8700H will be too heavy and similar to my walking foot? Thanks

Thanks for this very helpful video! What Needle size and thread thickness is recommended for a DDL-8700 for sewing 2 layers of vinyl?
@Sewinggold5 жыл бұрын
The thread size is up to you. The maximum thread size I would use on a DDL-8700 would be T70. You can use a size 100/16 or 110/18 needle.

What do think is better suited for making backpacks from Canvas, Cordura and X-Pac fabrics (with zipper pockets, roll top lids, overlaying straps...), the DDL-8700(H) or the DU1181N? Like, the one to do it all? Thx in advance!

Both will do the job, but I would prefer the DU-1181N.

Yes. You may have to adjust the tension a bit.

Hello i just bought a juki 8700H and I cant get the motor to rotate the hand wheel, the hand wheel has no trouble rotating and the motor seems to have no trouble rotating, i have tried adjusting the tension on the pulley but no matter where I move it whether i make it loose or as tight as it can be it still doesnt move the the belt to rotate anything, not sure who to go to about this and I cant seem to find many people who are having a similar issue, since then ive taken off the black cap on the tension bolt then brought it down to pretty much the end of the bolt and if will work 50% of the time, other times I have to apply pressure to get it to catch, but once it catches it has no trouble continuing, lastly I think it is a 40" belt which was supplied with my machine, i could maybe rig something to get it to have added pressure upward, but do you think I should get a smaller belt and if so do you provide those at your store, or do you think theres another solution to this issue
@Sewinggold4 жыл бұрын
Check to make sure you have the machine hand wheel on correctly. There is a flat spot on the shaft where one of the two set screws has to contact. If is not on correctly, you can get the issues I think you are describing.

Hi, I'm having issues with my machine chewing up fabric on organza and satins. The feed dogs are leaving marks, how do i adjust this?
@Sewinggold3 жыл бұрын
You may want to change the feed dog to something a bit less aggressive. You can also try reducing the pressure on the foot.

I have the DDL 8700 and for some reason the thread tension tightened and the thread break after an inch or two. I spent 45 min. on the phone with a tech and did everything he said. Even with the tension knob fully open, the tension on the thread coming out of the two "flywheels" and tension wire remains tight. What do I do? There is no commercial Juki repairmen in my town. Thank you.

This machine can use size 16 to 23. We have used size 14 without issue too. I think this machine will work, but a walking foot may be better. Look at the Juki DU-1181N or DNU-1541 series. They are on our website. www.sewinggold.com

Hello! Thank you for the video. I'd like to ask, will i be able to sew chiffon or silk like fabrics on this machine? As i understand H is for heavy fabrics? I'd like to buy Juki sewing machine, im not familiar with industrial sewing machines but id like to sew different kind of fabrics on -from chiffon to coat or winter jackets. Thank you.
@Sewinggold5 жыл бұрын
If you plan on sewing the thinner fabrics I would look at the standard DDL-8700. Even thought the H version can sew on lighter fabric, the DDL-8700 is set up out of the box to do it. The DDL-8700 can handle thicker material too, but not as well as the DDL-8700H.

what needle size should i use and what tension should i use for sewing vinyl?
@Sewinggold2 жыл бұрын
I could not tell you the tension because there are no numbers on the tension dial. Needle size will depend on layering and how dense it is. This machine can use size 14 to 22. A size 16 needle would be good for a couple layers of vinyl. Use DPx5 needles (135x5).

I’ve been looking everywhere and it’s so hard to find a straight answer. What type of needles does the 8700H use? I seen in one of your videos that the 8700H uses a different needle then the 8700. My mom bought me one for Christmas & I was trying to buy needles and thread so I can start using it right away. If anyone could lmk, that would be amazing & extremely thankful.
