I was given a Rex 11-155r fairly recently and this is my first industrial sewing machine of any sort. I've been trying to find more information about the machine and what it can handle as far as leather goes, but I'm not really pulling up much at all. First thing I did is put a servo motor on it, now I'm just trying to find out what I can do with it and what all I need to make this work properly. I'd really appreciate any information about the machine :)

Welcome to the forum. I think you'll find with anything like this it's always a good idea to post a couple of photos, that way people may have a better idea of just what the machine might be.

Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500.

Chinese shoe patcher; Singer 201K (old hand crank)

I found your machine in 30 seconds using Google Search. Here are the search results.

In a nutshell, this is a dual feed walking foot machine meant for upholstery or garment leather, or webbing, or vinyl, or heavy cloth. It is not designed for veg-tan leather, bridle leather, or any leather that memorizes markings. The feet and feed dog have aggressive teeth needed to transport the material.
