AutoPilot Mach 3 is Grand Format Embroidery compatible! Now you can turn your INNOVA into a hoop free embroidery system!

Building on INNOVA’s ability to sew 3000 stitches per minute, the maximum travel speed is 15 inches per second with an average travel speed of 8 inches per second. The AutoPilot® Mach 3 operates under true servo control, the same as found on our large format industrial quilting machines. Our robotics system controls the speed of the sew head and carriage. Through a complex mathematical program, AutoPilot® looks ahead at the pattern path being sewn, calculates its position, and maximizes its speed to maintain accurate stitches per inch and pattern quality.
