Sensormatic free-motion

Activate to set the machine in Sensormatic free- motion mode for presser foot 6A. The feed dogs will lower automatically.

When sewing free-motion at low speed the presser foot will raise and lower with each stitch to hold the fabric on the needle plate while the stitch is being formed. At higher speed, the presser foot floats over the fabric while sewing. The fabric must be moved manually.

To adjust the presser foot height in Sensormatic free-motion mode, long touch the icon (D) and make adjustments in the pop-up.

Note: Make sure that the IDT is disengaged.

Spring foot free-motion

Activate to set the machine in Spring foot free-motion mode. The feed dogs will lower automatically. A spring foot will raise and lower with each stitch to hold the fabric on the needle plate while the stitch is being formed.

Note: Make sure that the IDT is disengaged.

The open-toe free-motion feet are optional and can be purchased at your local authorized PFAFF® dealer. Do not use if Sensormatic free-motion is activated, since the needle might damage the presser foot.

The open-toe free-motion feet, or any spring foot with light grey plastic housing, can also be used for embroidery.

One of the standout characteristics of Pfaff embroidery machines is their innovative IDT (Integrated Dual Transportation) system. This technology ensures that both fabric layers are fed evenly through the machine, eliminating common issues like fabric shifting and puckering. This is particularly beneficial for intricate designs that require multiple fabric types and layers.

Another remarkable feature found in many Pfaff models is the large touch screen interface. This user-friendly display allows for easy navigation through various embroidery designs, settings, and adjustments. Users can easily resize, rotate, or mirror images, providing a customizable experience that enhances creativity. The interface also often includes advanced editing capabilities, so users can tweak designs to their preference directly on the machine.

Pfaff embroidery machines are equipped with a variety of built-in designs and fonts. These machines typically come with hundreds of embroidery designs, ranging from decorative to practical. Additionally, many models offer the capability to import designs from external sources, which expands the creative possibilities significantly.

The quality of stitching is another hallmark of Pfaff embroidery machines. With precision stitching technology, users can expect consistent results and stunning details. Features like automatic thread tension and the ability to use specialty threads ensure that every piece is finished beautifully, regardless of the complexity of the design.

Moreover, advanced models also feature a large embroidery area, which allows for bigger designs without needing to reposition the fabric frequently. This is ideal for large projects and commercial use, where efficiency and quality are paramount.

In conclusion, Pfaff embroidery machines combine innovative technology with user-centric features to deliver an exceptional experience for embroiderers of all skill levels. The integration of advanced technologies, including the IDT system, intuitive touch screens, and a vast library of designs, positions Pfaff as a leader in the embroidery machine market.
