SDGs-conscious Development Technology

Energy-saving technology

Controlling and optimizing various motors to reduce power consumption

This technology optimizes power consumption through JUKI’s proprietary tuning technology that takes advantage of the characteristics of various motors to maximize performance without waste.
Many energy-saving technologies are employed, including a circuit design that shuts down the power circuit when the machine stops and then quickly restarts it when the machine is up and running.

Drying technology

Maximizing trace amounts of lubricating oil to prevent oil stains on sewn items and reduce environmental load

This technology minimizes the amount of lubricating oil, an essential consumable for industrial sewing machines that rotate at high speed to dry the face plate portion.
This proprietary mechanism searches for optimum conditions for sewing machine operation. The needle bar is coated with a unique, ultra-hard DLC coating that will never damage machine parts, along with a small amount of “JUKI grease,” a semi-solid oil used to prevent wear.

Bird’s nest preventing/Shorter-thread remaining technologies

Eliminating the work of picking threads and improving sewing quality on the fabric backing

This technology prevents the thread from tangling in a bird’s nest at the beginning of sewing and cuts the thread to the shortest possible length at the end of sewing.
The thread gripper grabs the needle thread at the beginning of sewing and grips it firmly until the end of sewing.
After the normal thread-trimming operation and sewing operation are completed, the knife trims the needle and bobbin threads at the end of the stitch and the needle thread at the beginning of the stitch, and the remaining threads are sucked in.

Operator-friendly technology

Equipped with features that provide comfort during use and reduce the environmental load

As industrial sewing machines are operated by “people,” we are working to develop “people-friendly products and equipment” that reduce worker fatigue and maintain a clean and stress-free environment with reduced noise/vibration and a mechanism to collect thread and fabric-edge dust.

We are also developing products that reduce power consumption to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 and designing circuits that maximize performance without waste by harnessing the characteristics of the various motors used.
We also turn to recycling as a principle means of “Reducing/Reusing” JUKI products and reducing waste.

The “j” in JUKI is designed using the logomark design colors for development goals No. 8 and No. 12 from the 17 SDGs.

The core design aim for “JUKI Sustainable Products” is to make progress towards goal No. 8 “Job Satisfaction and Economic Growth” and goal No. 12 “Responsibility to Create and Use.”
The new design for the “j” in JUKI expresses our commitment to achieving these two goals.
The gold medal motif in our design for the ENERGY SAVING mark, a testament to a product’s success in achieving a 25% reduction in power consumption, expresses the confidence and pride of JUKI’s advanced technology in achieving its goals.

Depicting the letters “e, c, o” as a pie chart

The “green” area, which expands as it moves to the right, expresses JUKI’s determination to further grow its lineups of environment-friendly JUKI products and its desire to return the earth to its original, green state.
