Motor Options

When choosing a motor for your industrial sewing machine, one key point to consider is speed. Motors come in two configurations:

1. Variable Speed Servo Motor
2. Adjustable-Speed Servo Motor

Clutch motors run at a fixed speed (1725–3450 rpm). Servo motors, however, are adjustable, silent when idle, and offer superior control.

Advantages of Servo Motors:

• Consumes up to 90% less energy than clutch motors
• 1/3 lighter than clutch motors
• Reverse motor rotation with a switch
• No wear or adjustments needed
• Consistent speed control regardless of pedal pressure

Most customers find their sewing experience easier with a Servo Motor, especially beginners or when working on projects that don’t require high-speed stitching.

This machine package includes a Servo Motor.
