What are the steps to make a rolled edge with the Juki MO-2000QVP?

Prepare the machine

• Turn off the machine and raise the presser foot.
• Install the necessary threads. For a rolled edge, generally use 3 threads : a needle and two loopers.

Remove the mesh finger

• Open the looper plate and remove the standard stitch finger (or lower the finger depending on the model configuration).
• This reduces the stitch width and creates the rolled effect.

Select the rolled stitch

• On the Juki MO-2000QVP LCD screen, select the program dedicated to rolled stitch .
• The system will indicate the optimal settings (tension, length, differential, etc.).

Adjust the stitch length

• Decrease the stitch length to about 1 to 1.5 mm to achieve a tight rolled edge.

Adjust the cutting width

• Reduce the cutting width so that it fits snugly against the edge of the fabric. This helps achieve a fine, even finish.

Configure wire tensions

• Adjust the tensions according to the machine's recommendations:
• Needle: slightly reduced
• Upper looper: normal
• Lower looper: slightly increased

Use a suitable fabric

• Rolled is ideal for fine and light fabrics .

Position the fabric under the presser foot

• Place the edge of the fabric flat under the foot.

Sew slowly to begin with

• Move forward gradually to ensure that the feed dogs properly grip the fabric.
• Watch for regularity of the stitch.

Check the result

• Check the quality of the rolled edge: the edge of the fabric must be well rolled and neat, without gathers or loose threads.

Make adjustments if necessary

• Adjust the tension or stitch length if the result is not yet perfect.
