Lockstitch comparison
JACK H5K vs MAQI Q5Tt: which lockstitch machine should you buy?
A side-by-side look at two lockstitch machines from our catalog: the specifications each one lists, where they differ, and which kind of production each suits. Both are used for wovens, garments.

JACK H5K
Side-cutter synchronous heavy-duty lockstitch with a separated cutter for a neat cutting edge and strong durability.

MAQI Q5Tt
MAQI's Q5Tt is a two-motor ("two-drive") step-motor smart sewing machine with 0.1mm-precision electronic needle-pitch control and nine built-in stitch patterns. MAQI states a wide material range — from light gauze and stockings up to thick stacked material (quoted as up to 120+ layers of A4 paper or 16 layers of denim).
