AE Sewing Machines

Today we are wishing a very happy birthday to Ellis! 🥳 Ellis works in sales, marketing, on the website, and often chips in to help in the warehouse too. We hope he has a great time celebrating and enjoys his gift box from brewery! 🎈🎂🍻

They’re here! 🥳 Keep your sewing tools, needles and bobbins organised and within reach with the NDR sewing machine drawer. This high-quality, British-made injection moulded drawer features comes with 2 plastic runners to mount to a table and spacious storage for all your sewing needs. Say goodbye to clutter and hello to efficient sewing with this must-have accessory, yours for only £8.95+VAT! 😎

Pre-order alert - our sellout Advance AE-03 electric handheld upholstery foam cutters are coming back! 😎 With excellent performance and a much lower price tag than their name brand alternative, it’s no wonder we can’t keep these in stock. To make sure nobody misses out, they are now available to pre-order via our website. Go go go! 🏃

Today we are wishing a very happy birthday to Karen! 🥳 Karen is our lovely cleaner, she keeps the offices in tip top shape and brightens the room up with her smiles. We hope she has a lovely day celebrating and enjoys her trip away this weekend! 🎂🎈🥂

Sneak preview! 😎 This bespoke Juki PLC-2760-7-700 has been extended to provide the ideal solution for sewing oversized and bulky items. We’ll be posting an in-depth video demo on Monday so keep your eyes peeled 👀

We’re hiring again! There are two roles available to apply for, this time both entry-level positions, one in sales, and one as an office/warehouse assistant. This is a great opportunity for motivated individuals with limited experience, but a keenness to learn, to launch a futureproof career. 😎

An overview of the roles:

Sales support:
We are looking for a personable and motivated individual to assist our existing sales team. The role will involve sending information and quotes out to customers who have enquired about certain products and generating leads. We would over time expect you to build and maintain ongoing client relationships in line with our exceptional standard of customer service.

Office and warehouse assistant:
We are looking for a confident and motivated individual to join our office team. Training will be provided, so previous office work experience is preferred but not essential for the right candidate. The role will involve a range of general administrative duties including data inputting, answering phones, and generally assisting our parts and spares department with everyday tasks.

You can apply via Indeed or email a CV and short cover letter to [email protected]
We look forward to hearing from you!

We are one of the UK’s largest suppliers of industrial textile equipment and ship our bespoke automation technology to customers all around the world, but we are still a family business at heart. This means more to us than just having members of the family making up part of our team. For us, it’s personal. It means we genuinely care about the quality of the equipment we supply, and always aim to provide the best possible customer service. It also means the third generation may occasionally pay a quick visit and get very excited about the big truck our latest machine builds are being sent out on! 🚚

You can browse a selection of equipment and spares on our website or contact the team directly for personalised recommendations. 😎

We had another team member birthday this weekend! 🥳 John is the founder of the company, an expert in the textile industry, and a familiar face to most of our customers. He is always brightening up the office with his jokes, impressions, and (sometimes quite chaotic) enthusiasm. We hope he is enjoying his cruise around the Mediterranean and gets good use out of his new swimming shorts! 😎🥂🚢

Latest sewing machine head delivery! 🤩 We’ve restocked our warehouse with a wide variety of machines covering multiple applications including:

Models from Juki such as the DDL-8100e, DDL-7000A-7, DU-1181N, DDL-9000C, DLN-9010A, LU-2810-7

Global machines including the WF 3995 AUT, WF 9245, WF 1335 and SK 111

Our team of technicians are already working on getting them built with the usual top-quality components. Many machines are available to order directly from our website, with prices including everything you need to get started plus free delivery! 💪

This custom Juki LU-2810 with extra-tall stand was delivered to our customer Carpet & Binding Online, based in Stanley in the Northeast of England. 😎 We hope they're very happy with their new machine!

Contact our team directly to find out more about bespoke machine builds or visit our website to view our vast range of standard ready-to-order sewing machines! All machines are full built, set up, and tested by our technicians before they leave our site to ensure they're ready to use upon delivery. 💪

It’s that time of year again here at AE - Matty will be back at work tomorrow after a trip to Dublin for his birthday! 🥳🍻 We hope he had the most amazing time (and that he won’t be too hungover when he gets back!). Matty is our parts and spares manager and is responsible for making sure your orders are sent out with the fastest possible turnaround time. 💪

Calling all banners, signs and print manufacturers! 📣

Our premium white PVC Keder/SEG comes in a 200m roll. It is 3mm thick and 14mm wide, so is ideal for all standard applications. This is available to buy online now! 😎

Flat Keder/SEG is stitched onto the edges of tension-framed graphics. It ensures that the textile can be clamped into the aluminium profile and stretched into the frame to create a neat, crease-free finish. 👌

One example application is promotional graphics in cinemas. This method ensures that the frame can be re-used for multiple posters with no mess or hassle. 💪

If you use a large amount of Keder/SEG regularly and want to make things easier, speak to our team about setting up a regular subscription order and we’ll be happy to help! ✅

We had two team birthdays last week! 🥳

Gary is one of our service engineers, and you may see him out and about on the road during the week as he fixes and installs machines across the whole of the UK. 🛠️

Nia helps Fay out with the accounting, answers phone calls, and assists Matty in the parts department packing parcels and palleting machines to make sure our turnaround time is as fast as possible. 🏃‍♀️

We hope Gary and Nia both enjoyed their time off and had fun celebrating!🎂

One of the best things about having a team of technicians in-house is that we can custom-build machines for our customers to meet their exact requirements. This Juki LU-2810 has an extra tall stand to suit the operator’s preferences. Contact our team to discuss bespoke options and find out how we can create the ideal setup for your workplace! 😎

Happy National Sewing Machine Day! 🥳 We are celebrating the occasion by finishing off yet ANOTHER installation of our iconic conveyorised sewing machines for the print, signage and graphics industry. This week alone we have completed two delivery and installations, one in the UK and one in Poland. Massive thanks to Lewis and Piotr Polska for their continued support. We're very excited about the growing popularity of these machines and it wouldn't be possible without amazing customers like these! 💪

British-made sewing machine drawers now available to pre-order! 😎 Drawers might not be the most exciting part of your sewing machine setup, but they’re an essential tool for keeping spares and needles close at hand. There are many cheap and poorly made options out there, but our drawers are the highest quality and offer excellent value to boot! These will retail at £8.95 + VAT per set (1x drawer, 2x runners) with discounted trade prices available for MOQs of 50pcs or more. Contact us directly for more information 💪

Today we’re wishing a very happy birthday to our commercial director Rhys who turns 31 this Sunday! 🥳 Rhys has been an important part of the company from the beginning, from evenings helping his dad after school to implementing cutting-edge sewing and robotics projects to businesses around the world! We hope he has an amazing day celebrating and enjoys his gifts from the team 😎

A few snaps from our latest delivery and installation today! A few of our technicians were in North London assembling a 5m x 1.8m Rexel SK-3 table with additional underbed shelving and a fabric roll holder. These cutting room tables are very durable and have an excellent reputation after being tried and tested in the industry for many years now. We can supply any size table to suit your space and application, contact us directly to find out more! 😎

The big lights are back in stock! These Keqids DS-28K sewing machine lights are always popular and don’t tend to stick around for long, and there are a few reasons why! 😎

1. They’re very easy to set up – simply plug in, attach the G clamp to the tabletop, and you’re good to go.

2. There are 9 different levels of brightness to suit your personal lighting reference.

3. The flexible arm can be bent in any direction to freely adjust the lighting angle.

4. They save approximately 90% of energy compared to traditional lights.

5. They’re very affordable at only £30+VAT!

Shop Keqids sewing machine lights on our website or contact our team directly if you have any further questions and we’ll be happy to help.

The Juki DDL-8700 is a single needle lockstitch with exceptional high-speed sewing performance, peaking at 5,500 sti/min! It is also highly reliable and easy to operate, which explains why it is such a popular choice. It is ideal for sewing medium-weight materials thanks to the 13mm presser foot lift height and stitch length of up to 5mm. Additional user-friendly features include a light touch stitch dial and a throat plate with marker grooves that can be used as a guide for seam allowance. 😎
