Juki Tajima SAI Eight Needle Embroidery Machine Details
No matter if you are someone embroidering at home or running a business, the Juki Tajima SAI Eight Needle Embroidery Machine is the ideal machine. This semi-industrial machine is full of time-saving features that satisfy every professional requirement. It has over 200 designs pre-installed, 31 fonts, LED lights, a laser positioning system, thread breakage sensors, and a 7" LCD operation panel. The Tajima also includes Writer Plus Software, which adds an additional 1000+ designs, an auto digitizer, photo stitch, and more. Juki's eight-needle embroidery machine can tackle any project you place under its needle at 800 stitches per minute. With its friendly price point, it's great for businesses and embroidery enthusiasts. The SAI offers high-quality finishing and durability with the production power of an industrial embroidery machine condensed into a compact body.
Eight Needles
With Juki's SAI, it is possible to embroider multi-color designs with fewer thread changes. With a structure that inherits the high performance of industrial embroidery machines, fine lines and wide areas can be easily and beautifully embroidered. SAI stitches at a max of 800 stitches per minute, all while maintaining stitch speed during stitch length changes.
Thread Color Options
With eight spools of thread to work with, it's almost like working with a color printer! You can make your product anything from colorful to chic by putting together the colors you want to use. In reality, when you are putting designs and patterns together to embroider, it's rare to need to use all eight colors. What is important to note is that when an 8-color combination is available, more than 90% of your needs can be met. So, with all these options, it means fewer thread changes so that you can finish your embroidery faster.
Laser Accurate Design Placement
The laser positioning system makes lining up your start point and tracing your design super easy; it helps take out the guesswork before you start to stitch. The laser crosshair marker provides a cross-shaped laser-illuminated area on the fabric, which indicates the position the needle will fall. When lighted, the laser crosshair marker makes it easy to adjust positioning when the frame is moved, such as when moving the frame to a position to be embroidered.
Illuminated Workspace
Reduce eye strain and fatigue with the bright LEDs on the SAI. You won't miss a stitch with the high-powered color-rendering LEDs. Every detail on your embroidery projects will be lit up. These lights will completely illuminate your 12" x 8" embroidery field.
Easy to Use Touch Screen
Whether you are a novice or a professional, the SAI touch screen makes it easy to navigate through all of your machines' many features. The full-color 3-½" x 6" screen displays sewing speed, the current time, frame selections, thread color selections, setting changes, and much more.
Simple Tension Adjustments
One of the most common problems people face when embroidering is having the right tension. Since no one likes messy stitches, Tajima has made the tension system on the SAI as simple as possible. The upper thread tension is raised by turning the thread tension dial upwards; to lower the tension of the upper thread, simply turn the dial down.
Thread Detection System
Have you ever been embroidering and didn't realize either your upper or lower thread had broken and had to restart your design? The SAI has built-in sensors that detect thread breakage in any of the eight upper threads as well as the bobbin thread. The same principle applies if you run out of upper or lower thread. The machine will automatically stop when either is detected.
Compact Design
When you need a full-size embroidery machine but don't quite have the space, then the SAI just might be your solution. This eight needle machine is the perfect fit for any home studio, small business, specialty market, or mobile embroidery business. Instead of a straight line across the top, the patented design on the SAI with the thread lined up front to back saves more space than other machines of the same size. Handles allow for easy lifting, portability, and tabletop readiness.
Tajima Writer PLUS
Tajima Writer PLUS Software offers you every creative possibility you can think of. This software can convert text to embroidery data or make embroidery data by combining registered designs and text. You can easily edit your projects by changing the color of embroidery threads, position, and more. You can quickly transfer your designs by connecting Writer PLUS on your computer to SAI with a LAN cable (ethernet cable). Please note Writer PLUS is meant to work with Microsoft Windows.
