New Thread Take Up for W - and WT - series

The new tension less thread take up was introduced to improve sewing conditions on light weight and sensitive fabric. The needle plate has a thickness of 3,3, mm, needle thread take up and looper thread take up were improved to minimise thread tension and to avoid or reduce the bridge effect.

To differentiate from standard production following Y-numbers were introduced:

W500 - series Y1400
W600 - series Y1401
WT - series Y1402

Please also refer to TC-D0022 on this subject, informing about the changes in parts. New style thread take - up and thread guides are used. The introduction of the new subclasses is delayed.
