Maximum
The Acti-Feed Maximum sets an upper limit for the Acti-Feed. It allows the machine to adjust the amount of
thread fed as needed, but it will not allow feeding more than the specified amount. It is uncommon to need
to limit the maximum for the Acti-Feed.
Acti-Feed Suggestions
The Acti-Feed Suggestions can provide a guideline for where the minimum should be set.
Tapping any fabric/garment suggestion populates the slider and Acti-Feed Minimum to a mid-point
suggestion for that material. As even the same type of garment can vary in thickness, you may wish to adjust
the Acti-Feed Minimum a bit more.
Material Thickness
Material thickness is a determining factor in the amount of thread fed for each stitch. The perceived material
thickness is displayed as the current feed value in the Feed Chart.
Material thickness is measured in points. In this and many embroidery software applications, a point is used
as a fine unit of measure representing a tenth of a millimeter.
