Product features

Flat seams - we accept the challenge!

Creating flat seams is the challenge on long seam closing. Manually sewing closing seams is a long training process where the fullness often occurs where we do not need it. In order to counteract the problem, we offer sewing machines that can perform the sewing process safely and automatically.

DAC Compact - Control technology

Dürkopp Adler's proprietary control technology with machine ID enables machine parameters to be stored securely. If the control system is replaced, the parameters remain stored on the ID, allowing the new control system to be put into operation more quickly.

The puller ensures an even transport of the sewing material during the sewing process

The puller ensures an even transport of the sewing material during the sewing process. Afterwards, the roll-out device takes over the material and ensures a safe chain cut and then transports the material into the stacker. The puller with roll-out device is standard on the 1281 and available as an option for the 1280 (1280 590024).

Alternatively, the pneumatic swing out device with down holder is available as an option for 1280 (1280 590714 ). It replaces the down holder, which is mounted in the standard version of the machine. It ensures safe chain cutting and swivels short parts into the stacker.

The thread monitor

indicates a thread breakage and stops the machine. A maximum of 3 thread monitors can be fitted to the machine.

Laser marking light (1280 490154)

Split stacker (1280 590634) Splits the left and right trouser parts automatically. It is recommended in case the production process for left and right parts should be continously separated in the production. Or when more capacity is required in the stacker in large bundles.

Clamp stacker with 2 storage racks (1280 590604) for stacking short to long sewing pieces. Bundle size: small to large bundles.

Clampstackerwith 3 storageracks (1280 590614) for extended stacking for long to very long trousers parts. The clamp stacker is adjustable in length at the 3rd storage rack and prevents long trouser parts from lying on the floor, after stacking. Bundle size: small to large bundles.
