SEAMATIC SC8

Our speed queen

The innovative Seamatic SC8 is a new development for high speed seaming. This new machine design is not intended to replace the SC5 series of automatic seaming machines, but to add greater depth to our vast repertoire of seaming machines and peripheral equipment.

The SC 8 was designed specifically for high speed seaming of rather narrow seams and perfectly woven and heat set fabrics; only then can the SC8 reach its maximum speed and give you an efficiency never reached before in your seaming production.
