JUKI AP-876S-ZSZZN-BB4 Fully Automatic Crease Drag & Sew Pocket Setter Industrial Sewing Machine

Juki AP-876 Fully Automatic Pocket Setter for Jeans

The Juki AP-876 is a high-performance, fully automatic pocket setter designed specifically for jeans. It revolutionizes the pocket setting process, delivering unparalleled efficiency and consistent quality. With advanced automation features, the AP-876 significantly boosts productivity by streamlining operations traditionally handled by multiple machines and operators. This state-of-the-art machine handles the entire sequence of pocket setting in just 9.9 seconds per pocket, achieving a productivity rate 7.1 times higher than conventional machines.

Enhanced Productivity

The Juki AP-876 is engineered to perform pocket setting processes at an incredible speed of 9.9 seconds per pocket, maintaining high efficiency even with intricate stitching patterns. The high-speed, single-needle lockstitch zigzag machine head, equipped with an automatic thread trimmer, operates at a maximum sewing speed of 4,000 stitches per minute. This rapid operation reduces the cycle time by 5% compared to Juki's previous model, the AVP-875. This enhanced speed allows the machine to fold and place subsequent pockets on the garment body while still sewing the current pocket, thus maximizing productivity with just one machine.

Automated Processes for Reduced Labor

The AP-876 automates the complete pocket setting process, which traditionally requires multiple machines and operators. By integrating processes such as pocket folding, placement, and sewing, this machine eliminates the need for separate equipment like steam irons and additional lockstitch machines. It consolidates eight separate functions into one unit, drastically reducing the number of machines and operators needed. This consolidation not only cuts down on operational costs but also simplifies the production workflow.

Consistent High-Quality Production

Ensuring top-notch quality for the highly visible pockets on jeans and other garments, the AP-876 is designed to achieve perfect consistency regardless of the operator's skill level. The machine creates precise, sharp creases without any material slippage by using a unique pocket folding and tensioning system. This mechanism is highly adaptable, accommodating various materials with ease. Additionally, the presser plate evenly clamps the pocket cloth, preventing flopping and maintaining consistent seam quality. Juki's proprietary hook-driving-shaft offset mechanism in the machine head further ensures flawless stitching, reducing the risk of skipped stitches or thread breakage.

User-Friendly Operation and Advanced Features

The AP-876 features a large, easy-to-read color LCD touch panel (IP-420) that simplifies the entry and modification of sewing data directly on the machine. The machine supports various external media through a USB connection, allowing for convenient data transfer and storage. This system is complemented by Juki’s PM-1 programming software, which provides detailed sewing data input, verification, and correction capabilities.

Versatile and Easy-to-Maintain Design

The machine is capable of handling pocket settings on larger items like overalls, thanks to the spacious area provided behind the setting table. Juki’s active tension system allows for precise needle thread tension adjustments, catering to different material thicknesses and sewing directions. The pocket style jig is designed for quick changes without tools, supporting flexible production for small lots. Moreover, the machine’s energy-efficient stepping motor system reduces power consumption by 12% compared to previous models, contributing to lower operating costs.

Efficient Stacking and Maintenance

The AP-876 includes a stacker that can handle up to 64 pieces of finished garments, equipped with a capacity detector to prevent errors. This stacker can be retracted into the machine's main body for easy storage and movement. The encoder control system for the X-Y feed minimizes power usage and enhances precision, further optimizing the machine’s performance.
