This is the Juki LU 2810-7 with Juki CP-180 features and functions.

[@AlexanderDyer]

Thank you for watching my video. Is there something about this machine that you would like to see video on? I will always consider ideas when there is a significant plurality of them. I have included instruction manual links in the 'description'.

[@ericdrury5757]

I think that the needle take up spring settings are very confusing for a lot of operators...I realize that when the needle hits the material that the pulling should subside and reingage upon needle exit....but how about the tension? Make it similar to the upper tension that has been determined already based on the thickness of material and type? That's what I do...but I think there is a better explanation. And second...my new Juki 1508 handles heavy Tenara perfectly with no skipped stitches going thru 1/8 "thick patio furniture vinyl strapping at a full 9mm...however my b837 is challenged due to its age and degree of wear on its parts...mainly the whole bobbin system and the needle bar holder degree of crookedness and the bolts just don't stay tight on my timing settings....so I need to repair some things... otherwise....what are your recommendations for stitching perfectly with Tenara? I have a few tricks I will reveal in response and in addition to your expert advise. Thanks Alex

Really nice review and beautifully filmed. You worked hard on the editing. Thank you! Essentially, this machine is getting closer to CNC sewing machines used in large scale production. Great for repeatability of certain tasks without operator error. There are so many functions, it starts to be difficult to remember them all! I have a home machine (Bernina Artista 730) and the computerized functions are amazing: buttonholes, lettering, little patterns and even embroidery with an attachment.

[@AlexanderDyer]

Thanks, I think. The video is excellent and actually answers a number of questions about the machine, functionality, and productivity enhancements.

[@jimbobxcityguy5338]

don't wait. old and grey will be too late. I jumped from 206 and others into these auto machines 15 yrs ago and wish I did many years ago. Save's a lot of time and work paying it self off fast.

[@thejasonofalltrades]

I have a strong preference for old (and cheap) machines, but man, I could see myself behind the wheel of one of those! I especially like the placement of the foot-lift lever (for those rare occasions you'd need it) and the alternating-foot height adjustment. Great video as always, Alexander!

[@AlexanderDyer]

I get that, in fact many many sewers like the older machines. I have found that some of the old machines are actually quite valuable. Old black Singers have made it possible for me to get stuff like this. Judging from the correspondence I get around this machine I am finding an additional set of folks interested in sewing. Thank you and great job on KZbin and Instagram, #menwhosew.

Alexander, that’s similar to the Juki that I love. Thank you for showing this machine. It’s a Rolls Royce version of the usual great Juki that you show. This machine is absolutely incredible. Your videos are better than ever! Keep it up, my friend. I think this is my new favorite machine : Juki 2810-7 with Juki CP-180. I’ll be following this machine for possible sales. Is the presser foot a 3-step automatic feed ? I know I’m using the wrong term for the automatic feed, but I hope you understand what I’m asking. Once again, thanks for showing this machine.

[@jimhuskins8506]

Thanks for this video. I was not previously aware of this machine, but you easily convinced me that I have no interest in one. This level of computer control is terrifying to me. I am in process of reducing my dependence on CNC. Our small leather shop currently has six commercial sewing machines. Three are modern, one is ancient. Not a microchip in the lot. None will be added. Keep up the good work. It is helpful.

DA is always a problem, there are also problems with the knife, then the reverse stroke doesn’t hit, something has gone wrong. mechanic is always at work

[@kemalmalagic4398]

In 2020 our company bought two new machines JUKI 2810-A7 full automatic and other machine was Duerkopp Adler 867-190342 E2 also full automatic. DA was 35% more expensive than Juki but in this two years of owning them Juki dominates DA in every segment. In frist month on DA LED lightinig stopped to work. We got now transformator under warranty and again after few monts led lightining stopped to work. After that DA had some problems with knife for thread cutting. Many times when it first turns on, it shows some error, so it has to be turned off and turned on again. Issue was bad contact cable on machine electronics. And all that time Juki was working perfectly fine, and doing like 300% more stiches per day than DA. Now DA have a strange sound. Even the repairman doesn't know what the problem is and why it squeaks while working. He said that everything is lubricated properly, he even put new grease in the head of the sewing machine, but the noise comes from the bottom, and everything is supposedly correct below according to repairman. I am very disappointed in DA. We have had DA767 working prefectly fine for 15 years. Those were super machines.

Hi All, I am new to this youtube channel. After much research and watching this wonderful video, I placed my order for this ISM. I was wondering if you have any new insights, tips or comments about this machine. It should arrive in the next two weeks.

[@ChrisSmith-tw1mo]

These are like $6,000, lol…Anyway, this is a luxury vehicle. The 2810 is a Sports car. It’s like a Hybrid Porsche. The 1541/1508 is a Muscle car with a big engine. Pound for pound, the 2810 is better than the 1541/1508; However….since they are in the same class (they’re Upholstery machines neither are Harness Stitchers like the 441) everything the 2810 can sew, so can the 1541/1508. The 2810 is mostly about creature comforts and being an evolution of sewing machine operations as a whole with pneumatic air functions. IMO the 1541/1508 is the last and best pure analog, MECHANICAL upholstery grade Walking Foot.…the best revisions of a near 100 year old design hailing from the The Singer 111w. The 2810 isn’t "purely" mechanical and relies on Pneumatic functions to move around as opposed to the user lifting heavy levers and overall dealing with the clunkiness of a 111w style machine. They’re for different people. I prefer Godzilla (1508/1541), personally. The design is a 100 years old and they can be ran hard...Nobody really knows what the 2810’s will look like 10 years from now. Imagine trying to fix the pneumatic computerized stuff in a 2810 yourself lol It’s a DA 867 clone that is probably built better than the Durkopp and cheaper, if you’re in the market for a 867, it’s a no brainier purchase. The extra throat size is nice, but long arm 1541/1508’s are available also. Excellent video as always.

Alexander, questions for you: if you had to choose between the 1508 or the 2810-7, which one would you choose?? Do you need to add a speed reducer to the 2810? I see you can backtack one stitch at a time, can you forward stitch one at a time as well??

[@AlexanderDyer]

The 2810's are physically bigger which I like and super smooth. I would take the 2810 but having said that any of the processes you describe can be made available on either frame with the right computer and motor. I don't need the speed reducer with the right motor. Maybe you would. IDK

[@peterlavallee3353]

@@AlexanderDyerIs forward stitching 1 stitch at a time possible? If so, I wouldn’t need a speed reducer.

[@AlexanderDyer]

It is possible on either frame, stitch by stitch is a function of the computer and motor. It is a premium feature and therefore not cheap, contact a local dealer.

[@AlexanderDyer]

Some things will and some things won't. You can buy a version from the dealer that does not have all the automation and that one does not require air or the computer. Most machines that have all these automations start out as a manual machine onto which are added solenoids and air pistons and computers and switches to control it all. Options

Is this model only working with air compressor.? Or it can go without th air compressor.

[@AlexanderDyer]

Most of the actuators that perform the various automated functions are air driven. I could be wrong but I don't believe that this unit has a manual knee operated foot lift available but there is a manual hand operated foot lift. I would probably advise you to consider another machine or purchase a small pancake air compressor to go with it. They are around $150 for a decent one.
