Regulated stitches while you guide the quilt
The integrated BERNINA Longarm Stitch Regulator helps maintain stitch length as the machine or fabric moves. Three regulated modes and a manual mode let you choose the response for the quilting technique. Adjust settings on the touchscreen rather than through an external tension assembly. Digitally adjustable thread tension provides a numerical setting that is easy to revisit when changing threads or projects.
Controls and threading within reach
The colour touchscreen includes built-in maintenance tutorials, a stitch counter and five user profiles. The forward threading path and accessible spool holders simplify setup, while the on-board bobbin winder lets you wind bobbins at the machine. Electronic presser-foot lifting and a front handwheel support needle positioning and fabric handling. Fifty LEDs illuminate the free arm and needle area.
Guide the machine from the front
Adjustable handles put frequently used quilting functions at your fingertips. Change their position for edge-to-edge work or detailed custom motifs, and set the frame height for your preferred working position. The machine can be operated from the front, with front and rear handwheels available for manual needle positioning.
