www.images-magazine.com ETC Supplies: Mighty Hoops ETC Supplies stocks the complete range of Mighty Hoops to fit all the different brands of embroidery machines. “We have seen a huge increase in sales of the Mighty Hoops over the last year for industrial embroidery machines as they will do the job that other hoops cannot do,“ reports ETC. “A lot of companies are investing in regular orders with us to build up their stock of them.“ Due to an increase in the number of Brother PR and VR machines being sold in the UK, explains ETC, Mighty Hoops now manufactures a range of hoops to fit these machines. “The uptake of these for the Brother PR and VR machines has been great,“ says the company. “People tell each other in forums just how good they are and we get orders by recommendation from satisfied customers.“ Mighty Hoops has also developed the Tubular Hoop Support, which ETC says is a “great addition to the range“ as it supports the weight and size of the Mighty Hoops, allowing the machine to run smoothly. Also from Mighty Hoops is the Hoopster framing station, which ETC says allows users to position the embroidery in the correct place for each and every garment in an order. The framing station has a fixture to hold the hoop in place, and the kit includes a standard adult board with frame support, portable base, T-Square and freestyle arm. www.etcsupplies.co.uk Amaya Sales UK: Melco EMT16 Plus Modular Embroidery Machines The Melco EMT16 Plus is the latest of Melco’s modular embroidery machines. Amaya explains: “More and more embroiderers are realising that the Melco modular system drastically improves their efficiency and production. A big advantage of this system is that you can add on more production as you need it or split your production up to suit your ever- changing orders. Add to this its automatic thread tensioning and laser alignment, and you can see why it is one of the easiest embroidery machines to operate.“ Another benefit, says Amaya, is that because the operating software is PC-driven, any new advancements can be fed straight into the embroidery machine‘s ‘brain‘. “This makes the Melco EMT16 the most up-to-date embroidery machine in terms of technology and ease of use,“ says Amaya. “We believe that this system is the most flexible embroidery multi-head available and at the same time gives you the highest level of production possible.“ www.amayauk.com The Tubular Hoop Support works with the Mighty Hoops The modular Melco EMT16 Plus is available from Amaya Largest range of Embroidery Consumables in the UK * Exclusive distributors for major USA frames manufacturers: EMS Hooptech Mighty Hoops Allied Hoops Hoopmaster Durkee * Machine parts for every make & model of embroidery machine * Bespoke cutting facility for embroidery backings * Fast & low cost shipping * Expert Technical Help & Support ETC Supplies sales@etcsupplies.co.uk www.etcsupplies.co.uk 0141-550-1188
