Needle thread feeding device
Semi-rotary tension
Standard shape-tacking machines for seatbelts and heavy-weight materials is now launched!
The sewing pattern can be changed with ease. Higher productivity
With its new electronic feed system, the operator can select and use the sewing pattern entered. When changing a sewing pattern, the conventional mechanical bartacking machine requires the replacement of a feed cam. Since the new electronic machine no longer uses a feed cam, this operation is no longer necessary and costs are substantially saved.
With the handy PGM-7B programming device (optional), sewing patterns can be programmed on the main unit of the machine.
The machine offers improved seam quality and sewing capabilities when sewing heavy-weight or extra heavy-weight materials.
The following features promise improved sewing capabilities for extra heavy-weight materials: A high-power, direct-drive motor that drives the needle with increased material-penetrating force; a higher-torque stepping motor that increases the feed efficiency, and a pneumatic work clamp that increases the material clamping force.
Higher lift of the feeding frame (max: 25mm) enables easy placement of a material on the machine.
Adoption of JUKI's unique 3-fold capacity hook and a profound knowledge of sewing grounded on years of extensive sewing research help eliminate sewing problems and improve seam quality.
Standard device for G type or Z type. Needle thread feeding device: Feeds an adequate amount of needle thread in advance to prevent slippage from the needle when using bonding thread or the like. Semi-rotary tension: Applies higher tension on the needle thread.
The needle hole guide for the Z type machine is optimally suited for the sewing of seatbelts and ensures seams of extremely consistent quality.

The machine demonstrates a high-speed sewing capability of up to 2,200 sti/min for dramatically increased productivity.
The machine is equipped as standard with a full-rotary 3-fold capacity hook. The hook reduces the frequency of the bobbin thread replacement, enhancing efficiency in sewing with thick thread.
Excellent responsiveness
Select from three different types to best suit your application: the machine for seatbelts (Z), the machine for extra heavy-weight materials (G), and the machine for heavy-weight materials (H).

A newly developed heat cutter ensures reliable and speedy trimming of thick thread.
The thread trimmer offers outstanding reliability and durability. The ideal application for the device is the sewing of seatbelts with thick synthetic threads.
The thread trimming operation can be executed in as little as 0.3 sec. –– as fast as the thread-trimming speed achieved by a mechanical thread trimmer. The speed is adjustable and can be slowed down if desired.
Unlike the thread trimmer using a knife, the heat cutter trims thick thread without fail and shortens the thread remaining at the seam end. It also offers improved durability to cut down on maintenance requirements.
The heat cutter is designed to leave no thread chips on the hot wire section. This ensures consistent thread trimming at all times.
The hot-wire temperature can be adjusted according to the operating environment.
The heat cutter cuts both the needle thread and bobbin thread under the throat plate.
This means the heat cutter will never hinder motions of the work clamp and other devices.

The intermediate presser securely clamps the material.
By equipping the LK-1942GA as standard with an intermediate presser to prevent the material from flopping, beautifully finished seams are almost guaranteed. The height and stroke of the intermediate presser are both adjustable.
Excellent operability
The direct-drive system that directly connects a compact AC servomotor to the machine head achieves outstanding responsiveness and increased stopping accuracy. By omitting the use of a stop-motion mechanism in the system, users are promised a comfortable operating environment with reduced noise and vibration.

LK-1942ZA /5050
For seatbelts with heat cutter〈needle/bobbin thread separate cutting method〉
The hand pulley is installed on this side of the machine head. This allows the operator to visually check the needle entry and adjust hook timing with ease.
The machine is provided with a needle bar reverse-rotation mechanism. This enables the needle bar to stop at its topmost position to facilitate placement of heavy-weight materials on the machine.
This sewing machine is based on the LK1942GA and is provided with a heat cutter (needle/bobbin thread separate cutting method). In addition, the sewing machine is additionally provided with a bobbin thread detecting function, stitch-skipping detecting function, and in correct bobbin case insertion detecting function, thereby improving the seam quality.
Seam quality
The heat cutter (needle/bobbin thread separate cutting method) trims thread without fail even when thick thread is used.
The length of thread remaining on the material after thread trimming is 5 mm or less. As a result, the thread-end securing process is not necessary.
Bobbin idling is decreased by driving the bobbin thread trimmer by means of the air cylinder.
Bobbin thread detecting function
If the sewing is performed without the bobbin thread, the bobbin thread detector detects it. As a result, products which have a not-sewn section (sewing products sewn without bobbin thread) will never be placed in the market.
Stitch-skipping detecting function
The detector detects stitch skipping without fail and warns the operator with a buzzer sound. Inspection of products for skipped stitches is no longer required.
)
In correct bobbin case insertion detecting function
The detector detects the absence or incorrect placement of the bobbin case to prevent sewing failure and bobbin case breakage.
JUKI ECO PRODUCTS The LK-1942ZA/5050 is an eco-friendly product which complies with JUKI ECO PRODUCTS standards for protecting the environment.
The sewing machine complies with the "Juki Group Green Procurement Guidelines" on the use of hazardous substances, which is stricter than other restrictions, such as those of the RoHS Directive.
For details of JUKI ECO PRODUCTS, refer to: http://www.juki.co.jp/eco_e/index.html
The RoHS Directive is an EU Directive limiting the use of 6 hazardous substances (lead, hexavalent chromium, mercury, cadmium, PBB and PBDE) in electrical and electronic equipment. The Juki Green Procurement Guideline is the voluntarily established criteria to eliminate not only the aforementioned six substances, but also other ones which also adversely affect the environment.
Options are available to enhance the responsiveness of the machine to a variety of processes and applications.
