About this machine

The JUKI DNU-1541S is the safety-mechanism version of the DNU-1541 series. It uses system 135x17 needles, a double-capacity horizontal-axis rotary hook, up to 9 mm stitch length and a maximum listed sewing speed of 2,500 stitches per minute.

What the S means here

JUKI explicitly labels the DNU-1541S as the version with a safety mechanism. That is the useful distinction from the base DNU-1541.

Do not borrow the -7 trimmer

The automatic thread trimmer belongs to DNU-1541-7. The 1541S shares the same basic unison-feed family and 135x17 needle system, but not that automation package.

What this machine is used for

  • Heavy multilayer materials
  • Upholstery-class work
