Lockstitch machines are the most common industrial and domestic sewing machines, producing a strong stitch using a single needle and a bobbin thread. They are versatile for garment production, upholstery, and general fabric joining. Available as mechanical, clutch-driven, or servo/brushless motor models, lockstitch machines vary by speed, feed type, and needle system, making them suitable for light to heavy-duty sewing tasks.
Inspect stitch quality, needle bar and hook timing, bobbin case condition, motor type (servo vs clutch), and any signs of wear or corrosion. Ask for running tests, maintenance records, and photos of the head, feed dog, and needle plate.
Secure the machine in a sturdy crate or pallet, remove loose parts, lock the needle bar and presser foot, and stabilize the head. Use a carrier experienced with industrial sewing equipment and insure the shipment for its full value.
Daily cleaning of lint and dust, regular lubrication of the hook and moving parts, periodic timing and tension checks, timely needle and belt replacement, and annual professional servicing depending on usage.
