• Industry’s most accurate needle entry point is ensured

    Increased rigidity and JUKI’s unique high-performance feed control system contribute to increased feed accuracy, thereby reducing uneven material feed during outward/inward sewing. Uneven material feed during outward/inward sewing is reduced. In addition, for the feed system of the feeding frame, either the intermittent feed or the continuous feed can be selected.

  • High-quality seams that respond to heavy-weight materials and light-weight materials

    The thread clamp mechanism and the feed mechanism that succeeded JUKI’s unique technologies have been reviewed for improvement. As a result, more beautifully-finished seams are now produced. In addition, the main-shaft retry function can be selected with the memory switch. This improves the penetration force of the needle when sewing heavy-weight materials.

  • Beautifully-finished seams without bird’s nests (bird’s nest reducing function) are produced

    Since thread trimming is performed at the beginning of sewing, so-called bird’s nest (thread tangling in at the beginning of sewing) is reduced, thereby producing more beautiful seams.

  • Shorter thread remaining function *

    Since the counter knife position has been changed, length of needle thread and bobbin thread remaining on the material after thread trimming is reduced to 5 mm or less. As a result, securing of thread at the end of sewing is no longer required.
    * The bird’s nest reduction function and shorter-thread remaining function cannot be used simultaneously.

  • Newly-developed active tension

    Highly-evaluated active tension that is used for setting the needle thread tension is now added with new functions. The output can be changed over with the memory switch between the low-tension side output and the high-tension side output to enable fine adjustment of the thread tension in the actual area of use. Not only the thread tension during sewing can be changed at a pin point but also it can be set in accordance with the material thickness. In addition, the needle thread tension that is likely to vary with the sewing direction can also be corrected. All of these adjustments can be done on a stitch-by-stitch basis through the operation panel with ease. Since the needle thread tensions adjusted in accordance with various sewing conditions are reproducible, setup changing time is reduced at the time of changeover of processes.

  • The AMS-221F Series comes in two different models which differ in sewing area

    2516 (X 250mm × Y 160mm)

    AMS-221F-SS2516·HS2516
    AMS-221F-SL2516·HL2516
    This model of sewing machine is best-suited to sewing topstitching / shape-tacking of apparel products in general such as labels and emblems, and bags and shoes. It is widely applicable to sewing of various kinds of sewing materials and processes.

    3020 (X 300mm × Y 200mm)

    AMS-221F-HS3020·GS3020
    The sewing machine is applicable to sewing products which require a wider sewing area than that of the “AMS-221F-2516.” This model of sewing machine is best-suited to sewing car interior parts, attaching handles to bags, and topstitching/shape-tacking boots and shoes. This model of sewing machine responds to the sewing that requires medium-size sewing area.

  • Operation panel provided with programmable functions IP-500
    (provided as standard)

    The IP-500 is the newly-developed operation panel that comes with a high-resolution touch-panel screen. The speed of response to the operation is increased. The operator is able to input/edit data while visually observing the needle entry points. A file name consisting of 12 alphanumeric characters can be set to a piece of pattern data. As a result, It is possible to manage the sewing pattern using the file name. In addition, since the corrective measure is additionally displayed to the error message, easy resetting of the error is enabled.

  • The memory storage capability of the main body of the sewing machine has been dramatically enhanced

    Sewing data created with the IP-500 can be stored in the memory of the main body of the sewing machine. The memory storage capacity is 50,000,000 stitches and 999 patterns (max. 50,000 stitches per pattern) at the maximum.

  • Management of sewing performance and sewing machine by the utilization of IoT (Internet of Things)
    Various digitalized functions Management, browsing and editing of data can be carried out on the application software

    Data on sewing machine adjustments made according to the product to be sewn can be transferred to a commercially-available Android tablet in contactless mode. This enables quick check for uniform settings as well as confirmation of conditions of sewing machines in a sewing line, thereby facilitating setup changes. The operation panel is also provided as standard with a USB port. Data management and software update can be carried out with ease using a USB thumb drive.
    Data items of sewing can be numerically managed to ensure “stable quality” and reduction in time required for setup changes. Quantified sewing data can be externally taken from the sewing machine using an Android tablet or USB thumb drive.

  • JUKI Smart APP allows you to send and confirm various data

    In the application, there are items of management setting (terminal registration), sewing machine data (sewing data), problem-solution chart. In the problem-solution chart, we can generate production graphs,the availability chart, etc. for each acquired sewing machine data so it can be used for checking the current situation and analyzing it.

    *Android OS Version 6.0 is recommended to use JUKI Smart APP.
    (Operation is confirmed with respect to Versions 5.0 and later.)
    Contact JUKI distributor in your area for how to use the application software.
