Motor Options

With so many options available for motors when we talk about replacing or buying a motor for our industrial sewing machine, there is one important point to keep always in mind "The Speed". Regardless of brand or price, motors come in two different configurations:

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

Clutch motors operate at a fixed speed, typically between 1725 - 3450 rpm, depending on the type of machine. Servo Motors on the other hand are speed adjustable. The two major advantages of the Servo Motor are that you can control the speed of the motor and that the motor is completely silent when the pedal is not engaged.

Some other advantages of the Servo Motor include:

• They consume up to 90% less energy than clutch motors
• 1/3 lighter than clutch motors
• Reverse motor rotation with the flick of a switch
• Nothing to wear or adjust
• Adjusted speed remains the same no matter how hard the pedal is pressed

Most of our customers find that the sewing machine is much easier to control with a Servo motor because of the speed control. This is especially helpful for beginner sewers but also for projects that simply don't require high speed stitching.

This machine package includes a servo motor.

If you need help deciding what option is best for you, give us a call at 800-401-8151, and have one of our experts walk you through the decision.
