Application

The machine can be operated independently of PC software and offers advanced features such as rotating, mirroring, scaling, and splitting embroidery designs. The stitch density can be adjusted as needed to ensure the embroidery always matches the fabric and the project. Users can add and reshape lettering and create complex borders from simple embroidery designs. The Bernina B500 cuts jump stitches automatically and features an adjustable cutting length, while independently sewing the interfacing points for a clean stitch appearance. The thread monitor stops the machine if it runs out of thread, and the embroidery sequence control makes it easier to start stitching at the desired location. With free point positioning, users can select two points for precise positioning of the design, going beyond the usual four corner points or the center point.

  • PC-independent operation with advanced design functions
  • Flexible editing of embroidery patterns: rotating, mirroring, scaling and splitting
  • Adjustable stitch density for different fabric types and thicknesses
  • Automatic cutting of jump stitches
  • Individually adjustable cutting length for jump stitches
  • Independent sewing of interfaces
  • Thread monitoring with stop function in case of thread shortage
  • Embroidery sequence control for precise positioning
  • Free point positioning for precise pattern placement
