Some of the most profitable and impressive designs achievable in embroidery tend to be the larger, much more detailed products. This can include rugs, banners, ponchos, throws and duvets. These are specialised products that require a more complex production process and equipment that is designed specifically for embroidering onto them.
So, if you’re a manufacturing or embroidery business that already works with these types of products and wants to upgrade or expand your range, you’ll require the correct machine to do so.
And if you’re working with specialised products, the key to an industry-leading and efficient solution for your projects is technology and machinery. This means constantly future-proofing yourself and your processes by investing in the latest tech and machines with the right capabilities for your output.
For those of you who are interested in this type of embroidery, we have the perfect solution for you.
The HappyJapan HFR-W1502-120
This wide area embroidery machine is perfect for production projects that require a much larger embroidery area for the stitch heads to work on – and is perfect for businesses that manufacture more intricate products with complex embroidery designs.
The Happy Japan HFR-W1502-120 also has a flatbed embroidery area which is much larger than standard multi-head machines. The embroidery area stretches from one side of the stitch heads to the other – giving the machine freedom to move the embroidered product around and accommodate large designs with millions of stitches.
The Key Features
1. LCD Touch Screen Panel
The HFR-W1502-120 has a 10.4inch colour LCD touch screen control panel built into the embroidery area, conveniently placed so that operators have easy access to operations reports and live feeds of job progress. This includes current stitch speed, colourations of the design and status updates of any issues within the job or software.
How This Impacts Your Business:
The touch screen panel comes standard with all HappyJapan machines – something that competitor ranges can’t boast – and gives your staff the peace of mind to do their job safely and efficiently. It also provides useful reports of operations to managers of capacity levels, design details and information regarding maintenance requirements. These types of data are crucial for a production line that’s complex and specialised, as your operators can’t be at every machine all the time. So, having a quick method to analyse how things are running is invaluable.
2. Maximum Speed of 1000 RPM
Want speed and efficiency with your wide area embroidery process? The HFR-W1502-120 has got you covered. It’s speed of 1000 RPM is impressive compared to its competitor counterpart. As with all wide area machines, the expanded embroidery area forces you to sacrifice some speed – but for specialist jobs that require a unique amount of stitch space, there is really no other choice.
How This Impacts Your Business:
The quicker your stitch speed is, the lower the lead time on projects – plain and simple. No other wide-area machine with such a large flat bed area can achieve the speed this machine can. Is it a niche machine when compared to its other multi-head compatriots? Yes. But it’s ability to reach 1000 RPM while covering unmatched levels of embroidery area is a huge benefit to any business that produces embroidery on items like duvets, towels, rugs or banners.
3. Try Before You Buy
All HappyJapan machines, including the HFR-W1502-120 are available for you to try for a limited time before you make a purchase, so you can be 100% certain you’re satisfied with the quality of work produced. That’s how sure we are that you’ll be happy!
This is something no other embroidery machine manufacturer offers. Need we say more?
How This Impacts Your Business:
This one is self-explanatory really – embroidery machines are a big investment, even for a larger company; so being sure that you’re getting a quality piece of equipment for your money is crucial. This is much easier to test if you choose to try a HappyJapan machine before you buy it.
This is especially true for businesses that require wide area machines specifically; as the products tend to be more specialised and expensive per unit, so getting a quality job every time is incredibly important.
4. One Touch Operations
Every feature of the machine is one touch of the screen away. This provides an unparalleled level of accessibility for your operators. Got a complex production line that needs to minimise machine complications? This is the machine for you.
How This Impacts Your Business:
One touch operations save time and money on training. The easier the machine is to use, the easier it is to pick up and create products. Resulting in decreased lead times with less time spent training new operators – especially on larger production runs that might require more staff. Plus, having machines that are easily picked up by new operators creates a frictionless onboard when increasing your machine capacity with newer models.
So, What Size of Business Should Buy It?
As the HFR-W1502-120 is a flat-bed wide-area embroidery machine, it’s perfect for businesses that require a more specialised type of embroidery. If you have a gap in your production line for projects that require a very large embroidery area, like duvets or banners, then we would recommend this type of machine over a similar standard multi-head machine.
The HFR-W1502-120 is a two head, 15-needle machine, so naturally it can complete 2 designs at a time. So if you’re looking to produce products en masse, you’ll be struggling to find a wide area machine that can perform the tasks you’re after. This machine is perfect at producing highly detailed, large projects, so the jobs tend to be unique or to order.
