The BERNINA S-500E, Made especially for embroiderers
The extended freearm offers 8.5″ right of the needle. Enjoy a large embroidery area of 15.75″ x 5.9″ to bring your embroidery ideas to life.
With the Enhanced Editing Functions you can realize your ideas directly on screen and use your creativity to create new designs.
Use Pinpoint Placement to position your design precisely: select two points and match them with the markings on the hooped fabric.
The automatic thread cutter operates with two steps in one: cuts the thread and lifts the needle.
The Thread Away Mode pulls the threads down to the underside for clean embroidery results on the top.
The BERNINA Hook keeps the stitches consistent and precise with a maximum speed of 1,000 stitches per minute.
