Industrial Sewing Machines for Sale: Types, Categories, New, Used, Refurbed - Which Makes Sense?
By James E Hunter
Industrial sewing machines are heavy-duty sewing machines that are designed to be used continuously for many years in applications where the main business purpose of the plant is sewing.
Industrial sewing machines for sale can include new machines, used machines, or refurbished machines. Many of the manufacturers are from outside the United States and have sales offices here and manufacturing plants abroad. Many of the new equipment manufacturers will take used equipment in trade or arrange for a broker to buy the used equipment so that the purchaser can then buy the new equipment. Refurbished equipment might be available either from the original equipment manufacture or a dealer that has had the equipment refurbished. Used equipment typically does not carry a warranty but new equipment and refurbished equipment are generally warrantied, though not for as long as new equipment. Dealers in this area tend to specialize in a particular type of equipment or a particular manufacturer's products. Rarely would you find a dealer that made an inventory and specialized in all the above categories of equipment irrespective of manufacturer.
If you are interested in a new industrial sewing machine you will be dealing directly with the representative of the manufacturer whether that is an actual manufacturer's representative or the US sales office of the equipment manufacturer. However, if you are looking for used equipment the landscape changes somewhat. Used equipment can be controlled by several different types of people. A broker is simply a middleman who buys and resells and does not inventory or warrant the product. A dealer buys the equipment and may or may not refurbish it prior to reselling. In theory a broker does not specialize in a particular manufacturer or category of machine because they are trying to simply buy low and sell high. A dealer typically specializes either by category or manufacturer and may well also stock parts for the equipment they are dealing in. Another issue to be aware of is that of financing. New equipment dealers will have some sort of equipment financing lined up to facilitate the equipment sale. Brokers and dealers and used equipment specialists typically leave the sales financing to the buyer to arrange.
Another quirk on used equipment is the location of the equipment. As the needle trade moved offshore to lower-labor-cost countries over the last few decades, the equipment followed. In many cases US-made equipment was exported to third-world countries that began manufacturing the same goods at lower prices due to the lower cost of labor. As the equipment has aged and become out-of-date technologically, it makes less financial sense to re-export it back to the US. So the location of the used equipment should be taken into consideration.
