PS-⁠800 Series

Human resource challenges such as declining operator skills and the retention of younger workers are becoming more severe every year. Many factories find it difficult to pass down expertise and maintain stable quality as a result. The JUKI Pattern Seamer provides the technologies to fundamentally solve these issues and guide factories toward sustainable management. PS-800 Series Optional products

The key is “Template sewing.” Building a production line where every operator becomes productive and begins contributing at once.

Template sewing uses a template to replace operations previously performed by hand. A dedicated jig sews and cuts the fabric automatically based on a preset program. That is “Template sewing.” By designing and creating a template for every process and programming the corresponding sewing conditions, you create a system that gives every operator the power to reproduce expert-level skills and factory-specific know-how with the press of a button. Even a novice operator can handle multiple demanding processes without help from others, leading to significant labor savings.

Entering an era of template sewing where template engineers take center stage

JUKI Pattern Seamer combines a high-quality machine head with an extensive lineup of optional attachments—cutters, vacuum systems, and more—to sew, cut, press, and perform other operations continuously and automatically with a single machine. Implementing this advanced level of template sewing requires the redesign of multiple processes that have traditionally been performed separately. The template engineers assigned to perform this essential task convert the expertise of skilled operators into systems that anyone can use. By enabling consistent quality, shorter training periods, and seamless skill transfer, they become the core personnel in sewing factories.

Template sewing dramatically improves production volume and productivity even when you

Template sewing frees up the workforce manning a line by separating the operations of “fabric setting” and “sewing processing.” The machine no longer requires an operator constantly stationed by its side as it runs. As staffing requirements become less constraining, manufacturers can more easily introduce the following types of automated and robotic operations into their lines: • Transporting templates with the fabric already set • Automated sewing by the pattern seamer As the systems automate and reliance on manual labor dwindles, production volumes and productivity increase substantially across the entire line.

Perfect sewing safety with zero oil staining

All JUKI Pattern Seamer models adopt a semi-dry machine head structure in which oil is applied only to the hook section. The semi-dry configuration dramatically reduces the risk of oil stains, promising safe sewing even on down jackets, white fabrics, and other materials where oil stains easily spread and are highly noticeable.

Equipped with JUKI’s signature frame structure and feed control technology

The highly rigid frame construction, optimized structural design, and feed control technology ensure exceptional needle entry accuracy even during high-speed sewing. (Models specified for lightweight materials are shipped with a thin #8 needle.) Beautiful feed pitch achieved. Attention to detail is the hallmark of JUKI Quality.

A comprehensive lineup of devices enabling optimal process designs

By leveraging our extensive lineup of equipment—including laser cutters and rotary knives—we enable optimal process design based on a clear vision of the ideal process. Working with JUKI’s experienced engineers, customers can design and develop original, customized processes. For example, adopting a laser cutter prevents fraying at the cut edge and reduces downstream processes. Direct sewing after cutting simplifies fabric pattern alignment, streamlining production with fewer overall steps.

Comprehensive compliance with the international regulations applied to radio waves, machinery, and lasers

JUKI Pattern Seamers are designed in accordance with global regulations and major international safety standards. JUKI’s RFID systems satisfy the radio-wave regulations in each country, with machine bodies that incorporate ISO-compliant safety covers. Some of our laser cutters meet the DIN safety standards, among the strictest in the world.

Programmed intermediate presser foot

Prevents stitch skipping and thread breakage when sewing multi-layer sections or fabrics of different thicknesses, even when using the same sewing pattern. The bottom-dead-center position of the presser foot can be programmed for each stitch within the sewing pattern.

Multi-layer section : When the fabric thickness varies within the same process The intermediate presser foot moves up and down according to the set values.

When sewing fabrics of different thicknesses—even with the same sewing pattern

Automatic sewing program recognition

Scan the barcode attached to the template to call up the corresponding sewing program. With barcodes attached to the various templates, the barcode reader automatically reads the template information, resulting in smoother sewing compared to manual selection.

Active tension

The needle thread tension can be set for each stitch according to the sewing conditions within the program. As the needle thread tension can be linked to the fabric thickness or adjusted according to the sewing direction, the program reproduces the optimal stitch quality and thread tension for any sewing application.

Fabric cutting specification

The fabric can be cut while the template remains clamped after sewing. The sewing processes after cutting, such as zipper attachment, can be performed while the fabric remains fixed to the template. This approach enables continuous processing and high-precision assembly of sewn parts.

Rotary knife Effective for creating soft cut edges on both straight and curved sections—ideal for garment parts that come into frequent contact with the skin.

Laser cutter Capable of cutting a wide range of designs regardless of the fabric thickness or shape. Adjust the laser output and feed speed to perform edge finishing operations such as fray prevention while the machine cuts the fabric.

Vacuum device

Makes it easy to set templates for soft knits and lightweight fabrics. "For knit products not suited to the pressing process, quality can be improved by using a vacuum device to form creases along the template before sewing. In processes such as pocket attachment to dress shirts, creases can be formed along the template before the sewing begins. Manual folding with an iron-type folding process can therefore be eliminated, for improved productivity. "

Independently driven electric bobbin winder

As the bobbin winding takes place independently from the machine, no operational stoppage is required. In addition, the winding amount can be set in meter units. * Not included with the PS-800 2850 and PS-800 3830.

Operation panel

7-inch color LCD touch panel. Apart from basic machine operation, the operation panel can also be used to create sewing data and enter control commands.

Creating sewing data and entering control commands

Sewing data and control commands can be created and entered via the operation panel or through the editing software. (The editing software is included as standard.)

*1: sti/min stands for Stitches per Minute. *2: Available as an optional retrofit. ※A water-circulation system cools the laser tube when the laser cutter is operating. Please prepare approximately 5–6 liters of commercially available purified water each time you replace the laser tube.
