Groz-Beckert Size 18 Industrial Needle Suk 110/18

Crown Jewel III

Model number: BLCJ18-3

With an 18-inch throat space, the Crown Jewel III is the most popular size in longarm quilting machines and is ideal for quilters looking for more workspace and software. This feature-rich machine sews at an impressive 2,200 stitches per minute, while its built-in stitch regulator and Precision Stitch mode ensure smooth, precise stitching, even after hard stops and pauses.

The Crown Jewel III also includes a new quick-set tension that allows you to easily adjust upper thread tension and view your settings on the digital LCD readout. Additionally, its enhanced LED light ring better illuminates the needle area – where you need light most.

Features

18" Workspace

As a longarm machine, the Crown Jewel III’s larger workspace allows you to stitch freely without worrying about limitations.

Back and Front Handles

Effortlessly control the motion of the Crown Jewel III from either end of the machine with the comfort-grip handles. Options are right at your fingertips with push-button controls. Change the stitching speed, start and stop the Crown Jewel III, or place the needle up or down with buttons directly built into the handles.

LCD Display

Set and easily read Stitch Control Features with the large, color LCD displays on both ends of the machine. Change settings, lighting and speed with minimal scrolling. You can set your preferred needle speed for the Manual Stitch Mode. Plus, a digital readout allows you to monitor upper thread tension settings.

Built-In Stitch Regulator

Stitching has never been smoother than with the Crown Jewel III. The Precision Stitch mode allows you to make hard pauses without interruption and regulates the selected stitch length. The Cruise Stitch regulated mode allows the needle to immediately begin stitching at the precise speed chosen while regulating your stitch length.

Large "M" Class Bobbin

Enjoy fewer bobbin changes with the largest bobbins available in quilting (up to 40% larger than a standard bobbin). Plus, the low bobbin estimator warns you before your bobbin runs out. And with the variable speeds on the electric bobbin winder, you can easily wind thread of different types and weights.
