With its appropriately named SUMMIT embroidery system, embroidery industry leader Melco is aiming to take its game to a whole new level through a combination of performance and ease-of-use.
Capable of sewing up to 1,500 stitches per minutes and equipped with 16 needles, the SUMMIT offers a 10.1-inch HD resolution touch screen, built-in barcode scanner, automatic thread tensioning with Acti-Feed, and an ultra-responsive operating system.
According to the company, “By automating tedious tasks, the SUMMIT frees you to take on more projects, expand your business and unleash your creative potential.”
Additional features include:
- A compact lower arm, allowing operators to easily embroider smaller areas, like pockets and sleeves
- A 16.1-inch-15.5-inch sewing field
- A self-sharpening carbide cutter capable of providing years of trouble-free performance
- A laser alignment system that takes the guesswork out of design placement and avoid costly mistakes with registration, and tracing.
Integrated Barcode Scanner, Ultra-responsive OS
The SUMMIT’s easy-to-use touch-screen interface gives you all the information you need at a glance, including automatic maintenance reminders, access to a variety of step-by-step, on-screen guides to ensure your machine is running at its peak, and 30 days of on-screen tracking.
The system’s built-in barcode scanner quickly loads designs and design settings via the Melco’s proprietary OFM file system. The system’s cutting-edge software also allows you to quickly load hoop settings.
