Embroidery pattern positioning

The hardest part of embroidery can be making sure you embroider in the correct place, especially if you’re new to machine embroidery. With the PR-Series there’s no such problem – we’ve provided a built-in camera to help you position your design exactly where you want to embroider it, all in real-time!


Live camera

Position your design exactly where you want to embroider it, all in real-time!


Position scanning

Scan projects in the hoop and display them on the large screen, so you can easily position the design before you start to embroider. Patterns can be re-sized, edited and the angle adjusted as required to suit the garment or project.


Camera positioning sensor

Rotate and position the embroidery exactly where needed, thanks to the built-in camera and the snowman sticker system.

PR-Series Embroidery-machines-features-led

LED pointer for positioning

Use the built-in LED pointer on the PR and VR embroidery machines to help you start your embroidery in exactly the right spot. The LED pointer shows you the needle-drop position. Just another user-friendly feature we’ve designed in to help you perfectly position your embroidery designs.

Video tutorials and help guides

Our machines all come with on-screen video tutorials and several built-in help guides that will guide you through any embroidery question you may have. Whatever your query, we’re always at your side.

PR-Series Embroidery-machine-features-fonts

Variety of built-in fonts and designs

The PR and VR embroidery range comes with a generous amount of built-in fonts, so personalising items with names and phrases is child’s play. Simply enter the text your customer wants onto the colour touchscreen, select the size, even choose to curve or extrude the letters – all in a few easy steps.
