This is how machine embroidery works via an embroidery programme

EmbroideryManufactory the blog

The embroidery programme is created strictly according to the template

For embroidering caps, shirts and polo shirts, your sample artwork (usually your company's logo, a signet or a label) must be available as a vector graphic or very high-resolution image. Based on this graphic, the puncher (embroiderer) converts your design into individual stitches, the data of which is then combined in an embroidery programme . Each movement of the later embroidery design must be precisely planned in advance and "traced" as it were. This also makes the upfront costs of embroidery somewhat more expensive than textile printing. The drawing made by the embroiderer is the basis for the so-called punch or embroidery programme. This programme controls and steers the embroidery machine, which transfers the design template to the textiles by needle and thread.

In the machine, the programme for the embroidery is played out to several embroidery heads simultaneously

Similar to a printing machine, there are various sizes and designs of embroidery machines. The most modern machines have up to about 50 embroidery heads - producing 50 objects at a time. An embroidery head usually has about 12 to 15 needles. However, most embroidery programmes only use about 6 to 8 needles at a time.
Incidentally, the colours are not embroidered at the same time. This is because many punch programmes overlap the colours and the thread must also be changed manually for each colour. Loading the needles with thread is quite time-consuming. Most embroiderers load their needles with the common standard colours and only use the embroidery programme to load the needles whose colours are currently needed. You can find a small selection of thread colours for all caps from our category "Custom-made" here.
