Lockstitch comparison
MAQI LS202Ft vs MAQI Q7Ls: 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 garments, wovens.
MAQI LS202Ft
MAQI's LS202Ft is an electronic (computerized) top-and-bottom-feed lockstitch machine with a large hook and hand wheel and a round-knife thread trimmer, built for heavier feed work than a standard lockstitch head.
