Used Embroidery Machines

Many embroiderers go for secondhand or embroidery used machine than buying a new one. There are a lot of used embroidery computerized machines that are for sale, because many embroiderers and home sewing machine owners struggle with the decision to move into more industrial embroidery machines. You only need is to know where to find them. Sometimes looking for an embroidery business for sale in the paper is a good way to start or going with pre-owned embroidery machine.

More used computerized embroidery machines options are available today than ever before and it's important to know these options before you start your embroidery business. There are many factors to consider when buying used embroidery machine, let’s take a look at just a few.

First, ask to yourself these questions before buying an Used Embroider Machine:
  1. How old is the used embroidery machine your looking to buy?
  2. Are there new or used parts available in the market?
  3. Do you currently own and operate an embroidery machine, same brand or maybe this is your first machine?
  4. Is the machine still under factory warranty and if not is it being sold through an authorized agent of the brand?
  5. Are you more or less mechanically inclined, will the machine be installed by a factory technician? Do not buy used embroidery machine from sellers that do not offer any warranty or guarantee except you are confident in your technical skills.
Many sewing machine dealers get used machines in, have their service department refurbish them and then re-sell them for a much lower price than new. Quite often used embroidery machines comes with a 1,6 and12 month guarantee, in case anything goes wrong.

There are also available used embroidery machines can be purchased through internet with additional and optional warranties, embroidery software, embroidery designs and training as if purchased with a new machine. You really shouldn't consider buying online, even if it will save you a few bucks. Checking out a machine in person is more important with embroidery machines than others. it's important to test-drive these embroidery machines and sit with a dealer who can show you all they can do. Unless you know exactly what you are doing, and aren't going to need help figuring out your machine.

It's a good idea to see an in-store demonstration of each model you're considering. With a local shop, you can always get help, a local sewing machine dealer will also allow you to try out several machines and really see the differences between them and  also offers private training with your machine for as long as you own it. These embroidery machines entail a learning curve, and it's important to see the embroidery process in action. If you get a model that can take advantage of downloaded designs, you'll need a computer, software and perhaps a scanner.

If you are realy new to the embroidery business or adding this to another business but have no prior embroidery experience, make sure the used machine you purchase can be sold with a "new" machine start-up package and support.

Different types of computerized machines use different types of embroidery file formats so it is necessary to know the file format of the machine to download desired patterns from websites. Some of the embroidery file formats used by most of the machines include ART, EMB, PES and SEW. The embroidery designs can be digitized through the computerized machines as there are a number of companies that offer design digitizing services. Designs can be downloaded from the websites too. You can download a lot of free embroidery designs on the net and ones on Ebay for a reasonable price. The machine embroidery designs can also be edited with the help of digitizing software. The embroidery digitizing software helps to edit, crop, copy, sketch, and move the designs accordingly.

Consider the long term costs associated with a used embroidery machine that has either a limited or non-existent warranty as it may very well cost you much more than a new machine in the long-run. You can reduce your risks by buying from a company that sells the same brand new or has a good reputation for supporting what it sells, offers set-up as an option and can give you a meaningful warranty. Some of top-end embroidery machines are the Husqvarna Viking, Brother, Baby Lock and Janome. Most embroiderers are satisfied with the top-of-the-line combination embroidery and sewing machines. In addition, you can reduce your risk further by buying an embroidery used machine that has been gone through and warranted by an authorized agent.

Lastly, if you are new to embroidery, the most important thing is to be certain that the company will continue supporting your embroidery machine and its software.

What is Embroidery


Embroidery is the art or handicraft of decorating fabric or other materials to transferring a design onto a material by stitching on strands of thread or yarn using a needle. The origins of embroidery are unknown. According to records in The Book of History, such a rule as "Decoration effects on clothes with embroidery" was prescribed by awarded dress system existing 4000 years ago and an article embroidered with dragon and phoenix patterns made in the Warring States Period was unearthed from the Chu tomb in Changsha. It is the most ancient embroidered article among those being discovered so far and has a history of over 2000 years. The others stich embroidery found in ancient Egypt and also during Iron Age Northern Europe. There are several different forms of embroidery, many with rich cultural histories dating back hundreds and even thousands of years. Nowadays, embroidery continues to be a popular craft and is often featured on clothing and decorative housewares. 

origins of embroidery are unknown

In free embroidery, designs are applied without regard to the weave of the underlying fabric. Examples include crewel and traditional Chinese and Japanese embroidery. Cross-stitch counted-thread embroidery. Tea-cloth, Hungary, mid-20th century. By using a needle, thread or yarn is sewn on to a base material or fabric to create a pattern, embroidery can be classified according to whether the design is stitched on top of or through the foundation fabric, and by the relationship of stitch placement to the fabric. Embroidery may also use other materials such as metal strips, beads, pealls, and sequins. Sewing machines can be used to create machine embroidery.

Learning how to embroider is fairly simple. One piece of equipment recommended for beginners is an embroidery hoop. This is a simple wooden frame often formed in a circle, composed of two rings of wood that fit together. By slipping the fabric between the rings, it can be tightly stretched and held still and flat to ease embroidering. But being mastery in embroidery can take years and an untold amount of patience, not to mention pricked fingers. 

Machine embroidery, arising in the early stages of the Industrial Revolution, mimics hand embroidery, especially in the use of chain stitches, but the "satin stitch" and hemming stitches of machine work rely on the use of multiple threads and resemble hand work in their appearance, not their construction. In machine embroidery, different types of "fills" add texture and design to the finished work. 
Sewing Machine embroidery

Much contemporary embroidery is stitched with a computerized embroidery machine using patterns "digitized" with embroidery software. With the advent of computer technology, in just few moments, digital embroidery machines can stitch a logo or other design in what would take someone days to do by hand. Embroidery has become streamlined and even more profitable than in the past. Embroidery machines are now computerized with design software that can generate almost any embroidery design that we can imagine.
