This chat searches only class 867 materials and technical documents
One platform for many materials and operations
The 867 uses bottom feed, needle feed and alternating feet together. The layers move evenly without shifting, including when material thickness changes or the seam crosses bulky areas. A 335 × 125 mm working clearance and a slim head make large workpieces easier to handle.
The class covers basic ECO machines, automated Silverline and Goldline versions, automotive KFA configurations, 700 mm long-arm machines and a special twin-needle version with disconnectable needle bars.
What class 867 can sew






Which version is right for the operation
Basic universal operations
For a stable range of products where manual backtacking, foot lift and thread cutting are acceptable. The simplest and most economical entry into the 867 platform.
867-190020 / 190040 / 290020 / 290040 →Serial production with basic automation
Automatic thread trimming, backtacking and presser-foot lift reduce auxiliary time. Choose it when the operator repeats the same operation throughout the shift.
867-190122 / 190142 / 290122 / 290142 →Changing thickness and seam parameters
Adds a second stitch length and thread tension, quick stroke adjustment, LED light and maintenance indicator. Best for complex products with transitions between different materials and seam sections.
867-190322 / 190342 / 290322 / 290342 →Automotive seats and process reliability
A short thread trimmer leaves about 5 mm, the thread nipper keeps the seam start clean, and lockable controls prevent accidental changes. Optional NSB minimizes thread on the underside at seam start.
867-190125 / 190145 / 190425 / 190445 / 290445 →Large-area workpieces
The 700 mm arm provides room for bulky covers, upholstery, technical products and large panels. ECO and CLASSIC versions are available with one or two needles and L or XXL hooks.
Show long-arm versions →Decorative corners without crossing lines
Either needle bar can be switched off during sewing. This keeps twin-needle topstitching parallel and produces clean corners on leather and upholstery.
867-490322 →Automation grows with production requirements

Basic automatic functions
Thread trimmer, automatic backtacking, automatic foot lift and adjustable foot stroke.

Two sewing modes at hand
Switch the stitch length, thread tension and foot stroke without stopping to readjust the machine.

Short, repeatable thread ends
The KFA package is optimized for car-seat operations and minimizes manual trimming after sewing.

Independently controlled needles
Twin-needle flat-bed machine for high-quality decorative topstitching and corner work.
