ELASTIC METERING
WITH NEW MOTORS
Distributors and customers
should be aware of two motors now available which are unable to control
the electric metering devices on Union Special® FS/CS Series
machines. However, there is a simple work-around solution.
When running a Union Special®
MD-1, -2, -3 or -4 electric motor-driven elastic metering device, any
installation incorporating the new Efka AB60D motor or Juki SC-380 motor
must have the new motor synchronizer located on the lower main shaft
pulley. Then the synchronizer (Union Special part number
670-M10A) which is supplied with the sewing head is to be mounted to the
handwheel using the K74487 Handwheel Adapter, and plugged into the
metering device control box.
Anyone replacing an old motor
or assembling an installation with one of these newer motors can purchase
these two parts from Union Special Corp. to continue controlling the
elastic metering:
-
K74487 Handwheel
Adapter
-
K74478 Stop Bracket for
Synchronizer
-
(K74478 includes the
following: Synchronizer Stopper K74588, Screw SS6122030SP, and Spacer
50374K.)

This installation shows the parts
necessary to operate
Union Special® electric metering devices
with Efka AB60D and Juki SC-380 motors.
