JUKI DDL-8700A-7 - Production Support Functions

– 25 –
The production support function consists of three different functions (six different modes) such as the produc-
tion volume management function, operation measuring function and bobbin counter function. Each of them
has its own production support effect. Select the appropriate function (mode) as required.

Production volume management function

arget No. of pcs. display mode [F100]
Target/actual No. of pcs difference display mode [F200]
The target number of pieces, actual number of pieces and the difference between the target and actual
number of pieces along with the operation time are displayed to notify the operators of a delay and ad-
vance
in real time. Sewing machine operators are allowed to engage sewing while constantly checking
his/her work pace. This helps raise target awareness, thereby increasing productivity. In addition, a delay
in work can be found at an early stage to enable early detection of problems and early implementation of
corrective measures.
