02 March 2022, Mumbai:
On February 21, 2022, Japanese sewing technology pioneer JUKI introduced the AC-172N-1790AN, a computer-controlled buttonholing indexer for buttonholing top center plaits.
The sewing machine, according to JUKI, automatically sews continuous buttonholes, such as those found on men's shirts. The indexer also sews buttonholes at predetermined intervals and is equipped with a stacking device that arranges the completed materials automatically.
"When compared to single buttonholing machines, the AC-172N-1790AN guarantees greater buttonholing position precision as well as increased production," JUKI says. The "operation panel" on the new AC-172N-1790 AN improves operability for establishing sewing patterns such as buttonhole sewing method, number of buttonholes, buttonhole interval, and so on.

The whole operating panel has been replaced with a color LCD display that allows touch controls, rather than the traditional button-operated kind where settings are made using the up and down buttons and numeric keypad.
Furthermore, thanks to the hierarchical organization of the functions, it is now able to quickly pick sewing patterns and complete different parameters such as stitch size and density.
The main body of the sewing machine has also been modernized with the installation of the LBH-1790AN digital sewing machine/high-speed lockstitch buttonhole sewing system.
"As a consequence," JUKI writes in a newsletter, "easier maintenance and quieter performance during operation are obtained."
