Final Logo Design ready for Embriodery
Importing the design into the Digitizer Software for creating a Digital Stiching file.
Digitizer embroidery software is a specialized tool that converts digital images and vector graphics into stitch patterns
for embroidery machines, facilitating the creation and editing of intricate designs. It supports various stitch types, lettering,
and monogramming, offering extensive customization options and compatibility with multiple machine formats. Key features include image conversion,
stitch preview, and advanced tools like auto-digitizing, making it ideal for hobbyists, professionals, and educators. Popular examples include Wilcom Embroidery Studio,
Brother PE-Design, and Hatch Embroidery, enhancing efficiency, precision, and creativity in embroidery design.
Launch the Digitizer Software
Open File to load a fresh file
Select the Hoop as per your design size, in my case I have used 140*140 mm
Select Auto-Digitise from Artwork
Click the Select tool option on the Top left Corner
Select the image and click the Click to Fill option from the side tab
Now if all the colour in the logo are not visible clearly, then click the image and adjust the settings
Now you can adjust the colour setting till all the colours are visible
Now you can select each element to be stiched so it will be visible like this
Image Preview
Lets Save the design and export to drive for sending to machine
Click write to file
Write to the specific file and destination
If you wish you could rename the file
Finallt save the design in EMBD folder
Giving the command to Embriodery Machine to Stich the design
Pre-Stiching Setup
Making the Hoop ready with Canvas and Cloth attached to it.
Take the cloth on which you need the designed to be Embrioderised
Take a canvas fabric for strenght and support to our cloth.
Now put the Canvas under the cloth as such the Cloth will be on the top facing to the machine needle
You can Iron the cloth and canvas toghether to remove the wrinkles
Now lets mount the Cloth and canvas in the hoop
You should strech the cloth from all the sides to make it set properly without wrinkles
Finally the hoop is ready to mount on the machine
Push the black lever at side of the hoop to unlock
Mount the hoop on the machine bed and release the hoop lever to lock.
For sewing machine to operate its mechanism you need a thread on the top and a bobin thread at the bottom
To refill the bobin roll
Remember the Bobin refill colour must be as same the on mounted on the top thread roll.
Loading the file on the machine
Plug the the Drive which has the exported file of stiching.
Select the file from the USB Drive, visible on the screen
Select and set the origin frame position
Put on the Thread into the carriage on the top of the machine
Now lets put the thread on the machine mechanism.
Follow the 5 steps as marked on the machine and follow the path
At last insert the thread into the needle head
Place the bobin roll at its place
Now select the design that we adjusted and press OK
A new message will appear on the screen, to "Raise the presser foot"
So you have to raise the lever at the back of the machine
Now again a message will appear to lower the presser foot, so then press that same presser down
Once the setup file and machine is ready for job work, press the start button the machine
Design process started
Once the first colour pattern is done the machine will stop stiching display a meassage to change colour
Insert new thread colour into the thread carriage, and repeat the same steps for inserting thread into the needle.
So finally after changing the thread 5-6 times I have acheived the final logo Embrioderised design
Problem and Solution
- Sometime the thread break in between the stiching process so we have to again insert the thread into the needle.
- The cloth if not fixed well then the design will be misalligned and the stiching will not be done good.
