CoverPro 1000CPX
Achieve professional garment hems, flexible activewear seams, and decorative coverstitching with the Janome CoverPro 1000CPX! Designed to bring industrial-quality coverstitching to home sewists, this high-speed machine stitches up to 1,000 stitches per minute and features Janome's luxury Seam Tightening System™ (STS) spring mechanism to prevent looper thread slack. Boasting an extra-large 4" x 5.5" sewing bed, vertical needle action to protect delicate materials, a built-in free arm, and color-coded reference charts, the 1000CPX makes professional edge finishing effortless.
Uses a spring instead of the looper thread tension dial to lessen slack, creating tight, flat, sturdy stitches on thick fabrics and looser stitches on materials requiring flexibility.
Adjustable differential feed ratio (0.5 to 2.25) eliminates stretch-knit rippling, alongside variable stitch length from 1mm to 4mm for basting and gathering.
Straight vertical needle movement maximizes penetration power, preventing fabric shifting, material damage, and needle deflection.
One of the largest bed spaces available (4" x 5.5") for coverstitching mid-garment, plus a removable bed unit exposing a slim free arm.
Professional Finish
Seam Tightening System™
Janome's luxury Seam Tightening System™ uses a spring instead of the looper thread tension dial to lessen the slack in the looper thread. This creates tight, flat, and sturdy stitches on thick fabrics and looser stitches on materials that require more flexibility.
Guess-Free Setup
Quick Reference Charts
Stationed on the front of the machine for easy access is a full-color reference guide that helps you adjust for a soft or tighter stitch without checking your manual. The chart shows available stitches and displays the optimal tension settings for both loose and tight seams. Also, on the machine, in the looper area, is another color-coded threading chart that makes threading the machine guess-free and easy.
Total Control
Variable Stitch Length & Differential Feed
The CoverPro 1000CPX offers you more control of your stitches with its variable stitch length and differential feed. The differential feed allows you to control the speed at which your front and back feed dogs move and has a differential feed ratio of 0.5 to 2.25. This will help when sewing stretchy fabric and prevent rippling. The variable stitch length is also adjustable from 1mm to 4mm for different techniques like basting or gathering.
Quick & Easy
One-Hand Thread Cutter
Quickly and efficiently cut your thread tails in one easy motion with the built-in thread cutter. Best of all, you can do it one-handed!
Tight Spaces
Free Arm
The CoverPro 1000CPX makes it super easy to finish sleeves, cuffs, waistbands, and other hard-to-reach seams with its free arm. To access the free arm, remove the auxiliary bed on the machine, and you are ready to sew. Once you are through, you can snap the bed back into place.
Protects Materials
Vertical Needle Drop
Like a traditional sewing machine, the CoverPro also has vertical needle action. This up-and-down motion allows for improved stitching. Slanted needles tend to shift/push fabrics, and that may damage your materials. This up-and-down movement protects your materials and helps to prevent needle deflection.
Room to Work
Ample Work Space
The 1000CPX has one of the largest sewing spaces available on any coverstitch or serger. The bed measures 4" by 5-1/2". With this much space, you can actually make a cover stitch in the middle of a garment.
Match the Stitch to the Fabric
Stitch Variety at a Glance
From a delicate 3mm double needle cover stitch to a sturdy 6mm triple needle cover stitch, the 1000CPX's 1, 2, or 3 needle configurations let you match the stitch to the fabric. Use one needle for a durable chain stitch, two needles for a 3mm or 6mm double needle cover stitch, or three needles for a bold 6mm triple needle cover stitch — perfect for hemming, topstitching, and decorative finishing across activewear, knits, and wovens.
