JUKI® DDL-8700 Single Needle Industrial Lockstitch Sewing Machine with Servo Motor - Complete with Table & Stand
FULLY ASSEMBLED | TABLE, MOTOR & STAND INCLUDED
Prepared and inspected by JMJ Sewing Machines. Caster wheels not included.
STRAIGHT LOCKSTITCH • DROP FEED • ADJUSTABLE SERVO MOTOR
The JUKI DDL-8700 is a single-needle industrial straight-stitch machine intended for efficient sewing of suitable light- to medium-weight apparel materials. Its drop-feed mechanism and adjustable stitch length support garment construction, alterations and routine production sewing.
JMJ Sewing Machines supplies this model with an industrial sewing table, stand and adjustable servo motor. The motor is part of the assembled workstation and should not be confused with a built-in direct-drive motor.
Key Features
- Single-Needle Lockstitch: Straight seams for apparel assembly and compatible textile work.
- Drop Feed: Lower feed mechanism advances fabric during sewing.
- Adjustable Stitch Length: Mechanical adjustment for seam requirements, up to the listed 5 mm maximum.
- Reverse Sewing: Reinforces seam ends using reverse stitches.
- Servo Motor: Adjustable speed control supports more deliberate sewing and quieter operation than many traditional clutch-motor setups.
- Knee Lifter: Allows hands-free lifting of the presser foot.
- Industrial Workstation: Assembled with table and stand for shop use.
Applications
- Shirts, blouses, trousers and uniforms.
- Professional tailoring and garment alterations.
- Production sewing on compatible woven fabrics.
- Selected lightweight home textile projects.
This is a straight-stitch machine, not a walking-foot or heavy-leather model. Material compatibility depends on thickness, needle, thread and adjustment.

JMJ Quality Inspection & Sewing Test
Before delivery, JMJ Sewing Machines performs a thorough inspection designed to identify potential manufacturing defects and assembly concerns. Our team checks accessible components, controls, motor operation and the assembled workstation.
When applicable, our technicians perform lubrication checks, adjustments, calibration and a sewing test to evaluate stitch formation, feeding and reverse sewing.
Our goal is to deliver equipment inspected and prepared for proper operation. Preventive checks reduce risk but cannot guarantee that defects will never occur.
Complimentary In-Store Operating Explanation
Machines purchased directly at our Orlando, Florida physical store include a brief, complimentary in-person explanation of basic operation and main controls at pickup. This is introductory guidance rather than an extended training course, and it is not included as an in-person service with shipped orders.

JMJ Sewing Machines offers compatible replacement parts and accessories, subject to availability, and provides diagnostics, repairs, adjustments and preventive maintenance for supported industrial sewing equipment.
Contact our team to confirm parts availability and shop or local on-site service options.
