EPZ Lockstitch Sewing Machines
Industrial single-needle lockstitch machines built for precision, speed and automation — double step motor power for heavy materials, or integrated single step speed for light fabrics.
The Single Needle Lockstitch and Its Function
One needle carries the top thread through the fabric while one bobbin supplies the bottom thread — the two interlock inside the fabric to create a strong, secure stitch that looks the same on both sides. It is the go-to machine for neat, straight seams in garment construction.
Which Lockstitch Is Right for You?
Both machines deliver enhanced control and operational efficiency — the difference is the motor system and the materials each is built to sew.

- Automatic thread trimming function
- Automatic presser foot lifting function
- Automatic reverse feeding function
- Dual-moving knife trimming — thread ends only 3 mm
- 9 settable stitch types for multiple applications
Inside the EPZ-F7M2
Four engineering choices that make it cleaner, quieter and more durable in daily production.
✂️
Dual-Moving Knife Trimming
Stepper thread trimming and an optimized cutter structure leave thread ends just 3 mm — shorter, more secure, no manual trimming.
🧵
9 Settable Stitch Types
Dual stepping delivers stable trimming and multiple stitch options — simple, stable and easy to maintain.
🛢️
Oil Pan Design
Sealed oil tank keeps oil off your fabric and reduces noise while the machine is working.
⚙️
Through-Shaft Drive
Reduces the torque of the whole machine for stable operation — light, fast sewing and greater durability.
For Light Materials
Integrated High Speed Single Step Motor Lockstitch — EPZ-F6C
Built for light materials, the EPZ-F6C reaches up to 5000 stitches per minute. Its close stitch lock needle and short thread head improve seam quality, thread consumption and finishing aesthetics.
- Automatic thread locking — no thread trimming needed at seam end, and no thread running out
- Stores 9 different stitch programs at the same time
- Condensed reinforcement before and after the seam for varied techniques
- Sews thin and thick materials — crosses seams easily and conveniently
- Reduces bird's nesting to improve seam quality
- Hand-touch LED light with 3 adjustable brightness levels
- Automatic switching between seam and reverse-seam reinforcement


Decorative Stitching
Pattern Sewing — Fashionable and Beautiful
Pattern sewing, enabled by the intelligent high-speed lockstitch platform, transforms garments by adding intricate, decorative elements with industrial-grade precision — moving between plain seaming and decorative work on one machine.
Quieter Operation
Step Electric Control System
Built around a stepper (single-step) motor — a significant upgrade from older motor technologies, improving both efficiency and the working environment.
- Stitch length — maintains a stable, exact stitch length
- Needle positioning — the needle consistently stops in the correct up or down position
- Fabric feeding — smooth, consistent movement that minimizes material friction, noise and vibration
