JUKI PLC-2710NVS-70BBZ Industrial Single Needle Digital Direct-Drive Post-Bed Unison-Feed Lockstitch for Heavy Materials with Large-Capacity Hook & SC-952AD Control Box

JUKI PLC-2710NVS-70BBZ — Digital 1-Needle Semi-Dry, Direct-Drive Post-Bed Unison-Feed Lockstitch for Heavy Materials with Large-Capacity Hook & SC-952AD Control Box

Built for seats, sofas, and structured bags, the JUKI PLC-2710NVS-70BBZ combines a tall post bed, true unison feed, and a vertical-axis 2.0-fold capacity hook to guide thick, 3D stacks smoothly. Its semi-dry, direct-drive digital head lets you set/store key parameters and clone them for line-wide consistency, while automatic thread trimming and on-head controls streamline handling. Up to 2,500 stitches/min, 12 mm max stitch, and 20 mm auto presser lift deliver stable pitch over step-ups for consistent premium-looking seams.

Please note: product offered on this listing is the 1-needle version of the machine. The video featuring the 2-needle type is included for informational reference.

What Sets JUKI PLC-2710NVS-70BBZ Apart

• Digital Sewing System
  Digitally set and store stitch length, sewing speed, presser-foot pressure, alternating vertical movement, and active needle-thread tension; reuse conditions per style and lock them down with password control for repeatable quality.
  
  

• Preset Steps, Automatic Transitions
  Register the sequence and stitch lengths once, then let the machine auto-switch straight runs, corners, and curves in one pass for fewer stops and cleaner transitions.
  
• USB Port and Contactless Transfer
  The head’s panel includes a standard USB port for data backup/updates, and supports two-way, contactless communication (NFC) with JUKI Smart App so you can clone parameters and check machine status across the line quickly, improving setup consistency and stabilizing product quality.
• Operator Aids On-Head
  A 4.3″ color touch panel, jog dial (needle up/down), touch-back reverse, and a multi-functional 6-key switch pad put one-touch controls at hand for smoother handling.
  
  
• Direct-Drive Motor — High-Torque Control on Heavy Stacks
  The in-head, high-torque direct-drive motor is tuned for heavy materials, giving faster response and strong needle penetration through multi-layer sections; it supports high-speed operation while keeping handling precise on 3D work.
  
• Semi-Dry Head (Tank System)
  A semi-dry head keeps oil away from the sewing area while a tank supplies lubrication to the hook; the anti-backflow design maintains a consistent oil feed even at low speed, cutting stain risk and stabilizing stitch formation on demanding goods.
  

• Multi-Layer Section Detection
  The machine can auto-switch to a pre-registered set of parameters (pitch, tension, pressure, alternating lift) when a thickness change is detected, stabilizing stitch quality over step-ups.
  
  

• Large 2.0-Fold Capacity Vertical-Axis Hook 
  Latch-type large-capacity hook for longer runs on heavier thread with stable loop formation on dense stacks.
  
  

• Upholstery-Grade Clearances
  Higher presser-bar lift up to 20 mm (auto), alternating lift 0.5–9.0 mm, long reach 347 mm, and 170 mm post height support bulky, three-dimensional work.
  
  

• Built-In Arm Bobbin Winder
  Integrated on the machine arm so operators can wind a new bobbin while sewing, reducing stoppages and keeping thread supply consistent without separate equipment.
  
  
• Top/Bottom Feed Tuning
  Adjust bottom-feed rise/drop and the upper-to-lower feed ratio; feed-cam eccentricity is adjustable to keep pitch tidy on different materials.

How It Improves Your Workflow

• Line-Wide Consistency, Less Training
  The digital head saves stitch length, speed, foot pressure, alternating lift, and active tension; clone settings via USB/NFC so every station sews the same.

• Cleaner Seams on Bulky 3D Parts
  True unison feed with electronically controlled 0.5–9.0 mm alternating lift keeps layers aligned through step-ups and tight curves.

• Shorter, Tidier Cycles
  Direct drive and automatic thread trimming cut handling. Continuous sewing (cycle/polygon/custom pitch) lets you pre-register steps and stitch lengths so the machine switches them automatically in one pass, minimizing stops and button presses for faster, more consistent seams.
  

• Fewer Stops Mid-Run
  Large 2.0-fold vertical hook and built-in arm winder extend run length with heavy thread and simplify bobbin management.
  

• Lower Defect Risk on Premium Materials
  Semi-dry head (no oil at needle bar/take-up) and reliable low-speed lubrication help prevent stains and keep stitch quality stable.
  

Included in the Package

• SC-952AD Control Box 
  High-stability direct-drive controller with digital parameter storage (stitch length, speed, foot pressure, alternating lift, active tension) and data I/O for quick cloning of settings across machines, improving consistency and cutting changeover time.

Who Benefits Most

• Upholstery & Furniture Shops
  Seats, sofas, armrests, quilted panels, and decorative topstitching on padded assemblies.

• Automotive & Transportation Interiors
  Car seats, bolsters, door/trim panels, RV and bus seating with heavy threads and long runs.

• Marine & Outdoor Upholstery
  Helm seats, cockpit cushions, covers, and heavy vinyls/coated fabrics that demand stable feeding.

• Bags & Leather Goods Manufacturers
  Structured shells, handles/straps, piping/welts, and long decorative seams around 3D shapes.
