JUKI AC-172N-1790-SA1K Buttonhole Indexer Laser Marker Industrial Sewing Machine

Juki AC-172N-1790-SA1K High-Speed, Computer-Controlled Buttonholing Indexer with Laser Marker

Introducing the Juki AC-172N-1790-SA1K, an advanced high-speed buttonholing indexer designed to enhance both productivity and precision in garment production. This state-of-the-art machine combines rapid operation with ease of use, featuring a laser marking light for precise positioning and consistent quality. Ideal for various apparel applications, this machine ensures efficient and reliable performance for both men's and women's garment manufacturing.

Increased Productivity with Overlapping Work The Juki AC-172N-1790-SA1K dramatically boosts productivity through its unique preset mechanism. This allows operators to prepare the next garment piece while the current one is being processed, minimizing idle time and streamlining workflow. The machine's capability to perform overlapping work significantly reduces wait times and enhances operational efficiency, making it an invaluable asset for high-volume production environments.

Advanced Sub-Clamp Device for Perfect Alignment To maintain impeccable seam quality, especially on vertical-striped fabrics, the machine is equipped with a sophisticated sub-clamp device. This feature ensures stable material transport from the preset mechanism to the sewing machine, preventing slippage and maintaining precise alignment throughout the buttonholing process. The device detects material presence, reducing the risk of false starts and enhancing overall reliability.

User-Friendly Operation with LCD Touch Panel The AC-172N-1790-SA1K features a large, vibrant color LCD touch panel (IP-420), providing a user-friendly interface for managing sewing data and operations. The panel allows operators to easily input and edit sewing parameters, view stitch patterns, and manage data with USB and CompactFlash support. This intuitive system simplifies adjustments and improves workflow efficiency.

Versatility for Both Men's and Women's Garments Switching between sewing modes for men's shirts and women's blouses is effortless with this machine. The operation panel allows quick adjustments to buttonhole size, spacing, and patterns. Whether sewing men's dress shirts or women's blouses, the AC-172N-1790-SA1K accommodates varying garment specifications with ease, making it versatile for different production requirements.

Precision and Energy Efficiency with Encoder Control Equipped with a stepping motor and encoder control for the X-Y feed drive, the AC-172N-1790-SA1K ensures precise and consistent material feeding. The motor adapts its power usage to the material's weight and stitch length, contributing to reduced energy consumption and operational costs. This high-performance indexer mechanism supports up to 20 buttonholes per garment and stores 20 different stitching patterns in memory.

Space-Saving Stacker and Enhanced Operator Controls The built-in stacker efficiently clamps and organizes completed garments, optimizing material handling and increasing productivity. The machine also includes a knee switch and hand switch for easy operation, allowing the operator to start the machine while keeping both hands free for garment positioning. These features reduce setup time and enhance the overall efficiency of the sewing process.

Enhanced Visibility and Maintenance An LED light under the arm jaw illuminates the needle entry area, ensuring clear visibility for threading and stitch inspection. This feature, along with the machine's quiet operation and easy-to-maintain cloth-cutting knife, creates a comfortable and efficient working environment.
