Single Needle Cylinder Bed Compound Feeding Lockstitch Sewing Machine

The Highlead GC2268 Series is a versatile range of cylinder bed compound feed lockstitch sewing machines, purpose-built for heavy-duty applications in the bag, luggage, footwear, and leather goods industries. With its classic Mitsubishi-style cylinder design, this series provides excellent maneuverability for sewing tubular, curved, or cylindrical items such as handbags, backpacks, suitcases, and sports gear.

Equipped with a compound feed system, the GC2268 ensures smooth material handling, strong needle penetration, and consistent stitch quality, even when working with thick or multi-layered fabrics. The series offers multiple configurations, including standard single needle, direct drive for energy savings, and models with a triple-capacity hook (1B) for longer thread runs. For larger production needs, the 2B double needle version supports wider needle gauges (standard 6.4mm, special 3.2mm or 9.5mm), making it suitable for reinforced seams.

With cylinder bed diameters of 71mm (GC2268 & GC2268-1B) and 83mm (GC2268-2B), this series is highly adaptable to various material sizes. Durable, reliable, and efficient, the GC2268 Series is a trusted choice for manufacturers demanding precision and productivity in leather and heavy-duty textile applications.
