D B430E Outline

What is the LK3-8430E?

LK3-8430E is a sewing machine with electronic elements added to a conventionallockstitch bar tacking machine. This machine offers higher efficiency, simpler operation and more functions than the conventionallockstitch bar tacking machine does. Nevertheless, this machine has a reasonable price. This machine has good performance. (See the left graph.) Nine different types of bar tacking patterns and three different types of straight bar tacking patterns have all been pre- Function

programmed.

Decorative bar-tacking patterns can also be sewn in a 3Qx1 0 mm sewing area.

·The conventional clutch mechanism and parts like the feed cam, worm, worm wheel, change gear, and power cam have been eliminated.

·Variable sewing speeds can be changed easily from the operation panel.

Sewing patterns can also be changed easily from the operation panel.

Sewing pattern size can be enlarged or reduced from the operation panel.

Foot switch pedal pressure has been reduced.

Cost

New mechanism

This machine adopts the R-8 feed mechanism. Composition of simple and compact parts has allowed the realization of extremely high speed and a more quiet feed mechanism. As well, this mechanism offers fewer irregular stitches and excellent durability.

* TheE of LK3-B430E has three themes, Electronic, Excellence, and Economy.

Compared with mechanical bar tacking machines, the B430E features are:

Improved maximum high speed sewing, and easy variable speed setting

Simple to change sewing pattern

Simple pattern size enlargement/reduction by switch operation

Easy maintenance due to elimination of clutch and parts like worm, worm wheel and change gear

Lower noise due to no clutch noise

·2-step foot switch making operation and productivity more efficient (2-pedal foot switch is prepared as an optional part.)

Almost same price as mechanical sewing machines even with the above-mentioned features equipped

B430E offers the following sewing patterns

 

for 8430 series machines: (As of July, 1995)

Comparing B430E with BAS series electronic pattern sewers:

B430E is more suitable when

• Main use is bar tacking and pattern size is within 30x1 0 mm.

High speed sewing is required.

·Low-cost sewing machine is required

BAS series electronic pattern sewers are more suitable when

Not only bar tacking but also pattern sewing is required.

Pattern size exceeds 30x 10 mm.

Additional functions such as programming, intermittent work clamp lifter, and two-step work clamp lifter are required.
