Product features
Maximum productivity and efficiency
The M-TYPE cylinder arm machines with electro-pneumatic full equipment and triple feed are equipped with all M-TYPE-typical performance features and advantages.
In addition to the automatic basic functions such as thread trimmer, automatic backtacking and automatic sewing foot lift, the subclasses of the CLASSIC Goldline cylinder arm series convince with further additional functions for higher productivity and increased sewing comfort.
Furthermore the integrated second thread tension, integrated second stitch length and quick stroke adjustment allow to produce with the highest quality in a particularly flexible and efficient way even for changing and difficult sewing applications. Furthermore, the full equipment of the M-TYPE is complemented by additional comfort functions: The optimum illumination of the sewing area and the maintenance indicator ensure the best possible design of the sewing workstation.
The powerful and effective feeding system with bottom feed, needle feed and alternating top feet guarantees a trouble-free and displacement-free material feed when processing most different fabric thicknesses and structures. The highly efficient sewing parameters combined with a great variety of equipment make the CLASSIC Goldline cylinder arm machines an ideal operating equipment for special sewing tasks in three-dimensional or tubular workpieces in the field of technical textiles, shoes and leather goods, soft luggage and comparable products.
