The LS266/LS266TD series represents the pinnacle of heavy-duty zigzag sewing technology, specifically engineered for the most demanding materials in the sailmaking and industrial textile industries. Featuring a powerful penetration capability and a professional-grade bottom feed system, this machine is designed to handle thick threads and rigid materials with absolute precision, ensuring structural integrity for safety ropes, tents, and marine sails.
Available in two versatile configurations, the LS266 provides essential high-performance zigzagging, while the LS266TD upgrades the workflow with pneumatic presser foot lift and pneumatic reverse sewing. Equipped with a large shuttle hook and high-torque motor options, this machine optimizes production efficiency for manufacturers dealing with leather, upholstery, and extra-heavy technical fabrics.

Specifically designed for hard materials, providing the raw power needed for sailmaking and heavy industrial leather.
The KSP-204 big shuttle hook increases bobbin capacity, reducing downtime for thread changes during long runs.
Supports extra-thick threads including 1500dx3, V415, V462, T-500, and 1.4mm hollow or upholstery threads.
The TD version offers pneumatic foot lift and reverse sewing to reduce operator fatigue and increase precision.
Connecting rod pick-up thread system ensures consistent zigzag quality even on the thickest materials.
Choice of 380V 3-phase clutch motors or precision servo motors with fixed needle position functions.
Seamlessly processes tents, sails, leather, and seat cushions with bottom-feed stability.
Optimized for either high-torque clutch motors or energy-efficient servo motor systems.
Connecting rod pick-up ensures flawless synchronization for zigzagging thick ropes.
Integrated pneumatic controls for foot lift and reverse sewing in the TD model.
Large shuttle hook capacity minimizes thread replacement frequency in production.
Spacious 320x185mm working area allows for easy maneuvering of large fabric panels.

The LS266 is specifically designed for heavy-duty materials including boat sails, industrial tents, climbing ropes (up to 16mm), thick leather, sofas, and heavy-duty bags.
The LS266 is the basic high-performance version. The LS266TD includes added pneumatic functionality for both the presser foot lift and the reverse sewing mechanism.
Yes, it is designed for thick threads such as 1500dx3, V415, V462, T-500, and even 1.4mm hollow or flat upholstery threads.
The LS266TD can be equipped with either a traditional clutch motor or a modern servo motor, which includes a needle position fixed-up function for better control.
By using the KSP-204 (Durkopp Adler style) big shuttle hook, the machine can hold significantly more bobbin thread, reducing the frequency of stops for reloading.
The machine offers a maximum zigzag width of 12mm and a maximum stitch length of 10mm, providing great flexibility for various heavy-duty joining tasks.
