ZOJE ZJ5821A · Touchscreen buttonholing
A considered finish.
Buttonhole after buttonhole.
The ZOJE ZJ5821A electronic eyelet buttonhole machine brings touchscreen control and automatic thread trimming to industrial garment production. Also known as a keyhole buttonholer, it is designed for buttonhole work in menswear and womenswear.
Closed-loop control supports accurate patterns, while the long-thread-trim arrangement leaves tails available for controlled finishing.

Precision in the detail
Built around the finishing stage
- Repeatable patterns: closed-loop control helps maintain buttonhole accuracy.

- Automatic trimming: upper-thread trimming with a long-cut lower-thread arrangement.

Plan your workroom setup
The right configuration for your garments
This is the long-thread-trim ZJ5821A. Choose it when longer thread tails suit your finishing process, rather than a short-trim result straight off the machine.
Compressed air is required. Electrical versions vary by market. Confirm the supplied voltage, phase and connection requirements with Direct Sewing before installation in New Zealand.
