Machine settings (A)

Owner’s name

Touch the icon to get a pop-up where you can enter your name.

Twin needle

Touch the icon to open a list for twin needle width selections. When a twin needle size is selected, the width of all stitches is limited for that needle size to prevent needle breakage. The setting is kept until you deselect the twin needle width.

When a twin needle size is selected, a pop-up is shown when turning on your machine. Another warning pop-up is shown when selecting a stitch that is too wide for the set twin needle size. The stitch width of those stitches is automatically adjusted to fit the twin needle. Deselect twin needle to go back to normal sewing.

Stitch width safety

Select this function when using a straight stitch needle plate or a straight stitch presser foot to lock the center needle position for all stitches to prevent damage to the needle, presser foot or needle plate. When turning on the machine with this setting activated and for every stitch selection that is not a straight stitch, a pop-up informs you that it is set to straight stitch. Deselect stitch width safety to go back to normal sewing.

Note: Twin needle and stitch width safety cannot be used at the same time.

AutoSave current state

When AutoSave current state is selected, the machine will save current state periodically while embroidering and also when you stop embroidering.

The information about the embroidery will be saved even after switching the machine off.

Note: If AutoSave current state is selected it can take longer to go from Embroidery edit to Embroidery stitch- out.

Embroidery Machines specifications

Pfaff embroidery machines are renowned for their precision and quality in the world of textile and craft creation. Designed for both the enthusiastic hobbyist and the professional embroiderer, Pfaff offers an impressive range of models, each packed with unique features and advanced technologies.

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.
