Detailed Description

SAI was born in collaboration with Tajima from the voices of JUKI customers. Bring color to your world with JUKI SAI by Tajima! The TAJIMA SAI is a compact, easy-to-use embroidery machine packed with advanced technologies allowing users, including non-professionals, to achieve professional quality embroidery. With JUKI SAI, embroidery enthusiasts and professionals alike will enjoy an 8 needle operation that allows for multi-color creations with fewer thread changes. With the addition of 800 stitches per minute, your designs will quickly become a reality! This model offers high-quality finishing and durability with the production power of an industrial embroidery machine condensed into a compact body.

JUKI’s decision to collaborate with Tajima on the SAI was in response to many requests from home and commercial users of long-arm quilting machines who need high-quality, high-performance embroidery machines that can be used with large, intricate quilts. Under the slogan, “Making industrial-level technologies available to general consumers,” JUKI offers household sewing machines that are more sophisticated in quality and performance than others on the market. The same approach applies to the sale of TAJIMA SAI. JUKI aspires to enhance the creativity and artistry of users by providing truly useful embroidery machines.

All you have to do now is push the start button. And even better, when you connect it to a PC using the Writer software included, you can embroider names in an instant! The fantastic operability of not only the machine itself, but also the software, has been developed out of Tajima's design sense that has been honed in the real-world of embroidery. So, switching up to more powerful, higher-level machines is smoothly accomplished. Your initial experience will not be wasted, nor will the development of your business be held up.

Wonderfully Bold, Yet Subtle Design

SAI's distinguishing silhouette was created by Toshiyuki Kita, the designer of the first-generation AQUOS that kicked off the history of LCD TVs. He came up with a color and design which fit effortlessly into various environments. For instance, if you run the machine in a location where it is visible from outside your shop, it gives the shop a sense of movement and inspires interest in passers-by. What's more, Tajima added little twists here and there, such as arranging the thread cones vertically, to achieve the surprisingly compact form. In city centers, in particular, a shop is a valuable space not an inch of which can be wasted. It is a compact machine designed with consideration for your space as well.

Tajima's Expert Manufacturing

Tajima has a history of manufacturing embroidery machines for professional use. In developing SAI, Tajima prioritized making sure it had the durability to earn customers' confidence, and making sure it can be used for many years. The basic mechanism follows the same engineering ideas as Tajima's flagship group of products, which have been successful around the world. For example, they adopted highly durable parts in motors and timing belts so that they endure long periods of use with ease. Besides this, they incorporated functionality that only a specialized manufacturer could, such as a tension indicator, laser marker, anti-dust finishing at the part-level and so on.

Tajima Writer Plus Software Included

Tajima Writer PLUS converts text to embroidery data, or creates embroidery data by combining registered designs and text. Editing tasks like changing the color of embroidery threads, position adjustments etc., and thread color management in synch with the machine are also possible. By connecting Tamija Writer PLUS and SAI via a LAN, the created embroidery data can be transmitted directly to SAI, and it can start embroidering right away. Imagine having access to a treasure trove of embroidery designs at your fingertips. Tajima’s software, Writer Plus, offers a diverse array of intricate patterns and motifs spanning various themes. The options are as vast as your imagination, from majestic animals to pretty flowers! For animal lovers, the Tajima Program offers various designs featuring creatures big and small. You can find butterflies, dogs, and even wild animals like bears for your next project! Space enthusiasts can explore the cosmos without leaving the comfort of their stitching corner. Galactic marvels like planets, stars, and more await, ready to adorn your creations with an otherworldly charm! Rev up your sewing projects with designs inspired by the world of cars and racing. From fun family cars to exciting off-road vehicles, these designs add a dash of adrenaline to any fabric canvas. The Tajima Software also offers a lineup of sports-themed patterns encompassing various athletic pursuits. Football, basketball, soccer, tennis – you name it.
