JUKI MCS-1700 QVP

The Juki MCS-1700 is a specialized coverstitch and chainstitch machine designed to deliver clean, professional-quality hems and stretch finishes on knit and woven fabrics. Ideal for garment construction, activewear, and decorative topstitching, it provides the stretch and durability needed for factory-style results at home.

This machine excels at producing professional hems on sleeve cuffs, necklines, and garment bottoms using 3- and 4-thread coverstitch options, ensuring flexible seams that move with the fabric. It also includes a chainstitch function, where a strong looped stitch forms on the underside of the fabric—perfect for durable seams such as waistbands, side seams, and decorative stitching.

One of its most user-friendly features is the super easy looper threading system, which simplifies setup and reduces frustration when changing threads. Combined with color-coded threading paths, the machine is designed to make threading more intuitive than traditional coverstitch machines.

The MCS-1700 also includes an adjustable differential feed system, allowing you to control fabric stretching or gathering—especially useful when working with knits and elastic materials. Additional adjustable presser foot pressure and stitch length settings give you further control over stitch quality and finish.

With a sewing speed of up to 1,350 stitches per minute, the machine is built for efficient production while maintaining consistent stitch quality. Its extension plate with seam guidelines helps improve accuracy, making it easier to sew straight, even hems and finishes.
