That the first multihead embroidery machine was created by Barudan of Japan? Since then, Barudan continues to be one of the leaders in sales and quality with both their single head embroidery machines and multihead embroidery machines.

Single Head VS Multihead

Did you know several single heads can often outperform multi-head machines?

Single heads can be more productive because when a single-head machine stops (for example, for a thread break) only one head stops. On a multi-head machine when one head has a thread break (or stops for any reason) all of the heads stop which brings production to a halt.

Head for head a single-head machine will outperform a multi-head embroidery machine.

Embroidery Tip of the Day

There are several different types and sizes of Embroidery Needles. Most any Embroidery Needle will work for any Industrial/Commercial Embroidery Machine. There are several different needle sizes and needle tips. There are also needles made of different materials for strength and machine speeds.

A 75/11 Sharp is recommended for general use.

A different needle might need to be used depending on the fabric or the material being embroidered on.

Generally it's not necessary to go to the extremes of changing needles out unless the operator experiences excessive thread breaks, needle breaks, or just poor quality embroidery.
