Highlead GC0518A-D3

Needle feed industrial sewing machine with auto thread trimmer

Factory Rated

The GC0518A-D3 is the needle feed version of Highlead's single needle industrial sewing machine with automatic thread trimming system.

The needle bar and bottom feed mechanism move in time: to combine into a more stable motion which helps prevent uneven material feeding & ply shifting etc., and results in a precise stitched seam.

Stitch length variations are greatly reduced when sewing and changing between high & low speed or forward & reverse feeding.  This can be of use when you are hemming or sewing in long runs at high-speed (i.e. bed sheets, curtains, blinds, banners, covers etc.).

The combined dual action feed motion allows this model to handle heavier and/or more difficult to feed materials when compared with a standard drop feed machine (i.e. work-wear, uniforms, rain-wear, outdoor wear, technical textiles etc.).

The machine is equipped with an automatic thread trimmer which is mounted under the needle plate for quick & accurate cutting of thread at the end of a sewing cycle. This saves considerable time when compared with manual cutting of threads using scissors etc.

The position of the needle is controlled by an electronic needle position motor & controller.  This will automatically put the needle in an UP or DOWN position at the end of a sewing cycle: reducing the need to use the manual hand wheel. 

The Highlead GC0518A-D3 is a feature packed time served machine and as well as needle feed & automatic thread trimming; it comes as standard with programmable auto back-tack, auto reverse, auto thread control wiper, knuckle quick reverse and built in digital stitch count program module.

It is fitted with a full sized premium quiet & energy efficient electronically controlled AC servo motor, which only runs when you are actually sewing; If you pause or stop: the motor stops immediately and is almost silent. 

The Highlead GC0518 series is in use by clothing and textile manufacturers around the world. Its robust construction & time proven design offers users a versatile factory rated production tool.
