AMS-⁠210EN Series

New technologies have helped the AMS Series increase “productivity,” achieve ”energy conservation” in consideration of the global environment, and further improve “quality.”

The AMS-210EN Series comes in three different models which differ in sewing area

The machine with a slide-type thread take-up lever is designed for improved stitching with heavy threads tension. JUKI's unique active tension mechanism which has been re-designed specifically for heavy-weight materials, as well as the slide-type thread take-up lever which is suited for sewing heavy-weight materials, increase the maximum tension by 50% more compared to that of the standard models of the JUKI AMS Series machines. The new model improves seam quality (thread tension) for sewing seat belts and general heavy-weight materials such as container belts and bags.

Cycle time is shortened

Sewing at the maximum sewing speed of 2,800sti/min is possible up to stitching pitch of 4mm for the AMS-210EN (the highest sewing speed and stitching pitch in the industrial sewing machine industry). Even for the larger pitches, the sewing speed is increased by 90% for the AMS-210EN and by 60% for the AMS-221EN at the maximum when compared with the conventional models, thereby reducing the cycle time.

* The sewing speed is automatically controlled according to the stitching pitch.

Power consumption is substantially decreased

Improvement of seam quality

The position of the feed can be checked during sewing by means of the encoder-controlled X-Y drive stepping motor. This remarkably improves accuracy of the feed. As a result, deformation of a sewing pattern which is likely to occur when sewing at a high speed or sewing a heavy-weight material is significantly reduced.

Semi-dry head

The frame (needle bar unit and thread take-up unit) is lubricated with grease, and the hook is fed with a minute quantity of oil from the oil tank. JUKI's advanced dry technology, which is utilized in a number of our sewing machine models, protects your products from being stained with oil.

Programmable intermediate presser

To support the sewing of multi-layered parts of materials, the lower dead point height of the intermediate presser can be changed steplessly during sewing (standard: 0~3.5mm; maximum: 0~7.0mm). The intermediate presser will now be able to clamp the material without fail, thereby preventing troubles in sewing, such as stitch skipping and thread breakage. Furthermore, flaws on the sewing product are prevented by maintaining the intermediate height as desired according to the material thickness. (The intermediate presser stroke is adjustable between 0 and 10mm.)

Two different types of feeding frames

The feeding frame comes in two different types; the monolithic feeding frame and the separately-driven feeding frame. The separately-driven feeding frame enables easy placement of the sewing material on the machine since its right and left frame parts can be operated separately. Both the amount of lift and the ascending/descending speed of the feeding frame can be adjusted differently for the right and left parts of the frame.

Double-stepped stroke feeding frame

The feeding frame can be lowered in two steps. It is very convenient for finely positioning the material on the sewing machine. The stopping height of the feeding frame can be set as desired with ease.

Active tension

Market-proven active tension has been introduced to the needle thread tension controller. With the active tension, pinpoint changes in the needle thread tension during sewing are enabled. The needle thread tension, therefore, can be set in conjunction with the material thickness and can be corrected according to the direction of sewing on a stitch-by-stitch basis through the operation panel. Since the needle thread tension is reproducible, supporting a broader range of sewing conditions, the time required for setup changing upon process changeover can be reduced.

The machine supports a broader range of materials and various sewing specifications

The large-sized liquid crystal touch panel, which has been developed to ensure ease of operation, dramatically increases efficiency in edit work.

Sewing data created with the IP-420 can be stored in the memory of the main body of the sewing machine. The memory storage capacity is 500,000 stitches and 999 patterns (max. 50,000 stitches per pattern) at the maximum. In addition to the CompactFlash 33 card, the main body of the sewing machine is provided as standard with a USB connector. Now, data can be input/output to/from various kinds of media (FD (floppy disks), SM (SmartMedia), CF (CompactFlash), SD (Secure Digital Card) etc.) by means of a USB thumb device and a card reader. The maximum number of stitches that can be stored in the memory for each medium is approximately 50,000,000.
