Background The Juki PM-1 is a compact industrial/semindustrial sewing machine introduced by Juki in the 1980s–1990s era as part of its smaller, consumer-friendly line. Built with a metal frame and a design focused on durability and straight-stitch performance, the PM-1 earned use in home workshops, small tailoring shops, and by hobbyists who wanted a workhorse that could handle heavier fabrics than typical domestic machines.
