The GC0518 is the needle feed version of Highlead's popular industrial flatbed single needle lockstitch sewing machine. The needle bar and bottom feed mechanism move in time: to combine into a more stable motion which helps prevent uneven material feeding & ply shifting etc. and results in a better and more precise stitched seam. The combined feed motion allows this model to handle heavier materials when compared with a standard drop feed machine. Stitch length variations are greatly reduced when sewing and changing between high & low speed or forward & reverse feeding. This is of particular use when you are hemming or sewing in long runs at high-speed (bed sheets, curtains, blinds, banners etc). The GC0518 model can be set at up to 5000 stitch per minute and is fitted with an automatic pump driven lubrication system: feeding all important components, including the hook & base. |
