IMAGINE... High quality computerized quilting
with your sewing machine, mid-arm, or long-arm for $2995!!! You can design your own patterns using scanned images or you can download quilting patterns from our website or from friends.
The PC Quilter (PCQ) is a quilting
robot. It replaces/augments the free-motion carriage on your machine
quilting frame. The PCQ works with all midarms and longarms and with almost all quilting frames. There are two versions of the PCQ. One version allows you to simply put your sewing machine on top of the
PCQ. With the other version, you place the PCQ next to your sewing machine carriage. In either case, the PCQ
then moves your sewing machine around on your quilting frame just like you do when you
are free-motion quilting (only a lot more accurately)!
The BIG difference is that the PC Quilter
is controlled by your home computer and is amazingly accurate! It
comes with all the software you need to run the robot and digitize
your own patterns. Even better is that there are now over 3,000
individual quilting patterns available for the
PC Quilter - some free, and even
more available at less than the cost of a quilting stencil.
What it means is no more "stressing" out over not being able to follow
a line with a stylus perfectly. No more back, neck or shoulder aches
by hunching over staring at a laser light or other stylus.
IT MEANS the PERFECT pattern, museum quality, accurately stitched on
your quilt every time!
THE
REAL THING – BUILT LIKE A TANK TO LAST FOR A DECADES. THE PCQ IS MADE
IN THE USA BY A COMPANY WITH A PROVEN TRACK RECORD OF SUPERLATIVE
RELIABILITY.
We
have built PC Quilters since 2001. They are built to last 10 - 20 years
with minor adjustments or rarely a repair. And if a
PCQ needs repair, we can send the parts
and instructions to you to save round trip shipping. Or you can return
it for our experienced technicians to promptly diagnose and repair.
There are thousands of PCQ’s all over the world – they are on every
continent except Antarctica! In the past year or so, some look-alike,
“me too” products have come on the market.
BEWARE OF OVERPRICED IMITATIONS
Some
of the “me too” products lack adequate features – quilters buy them
and then later are disappointed. Some products use smaller, much
cheaper geared motors. We use expensive, hefty, direct drive motors
only. Some products do not connect to your PC – you must copy files
from your PC and take them to the robot. That means that you will not
have the full power of your PC and all the needed software features to
manipulate patterns in real time right at your quilt frame. Initially
hooking up the PCQ to your existing home
computer may take a bit longer but you will have a much more powerful
system in the long run.
DON’T
BE TRICKED BY PHONY COMPARISONS
Some
vendors post comparisons that are misleading. They compare our most
expensive PCQ with our most expensive
options to their product which does not at all have similar
capabilities. Our least expensive model would be a more correct
comparison and is everything that most customers need. The misleading
comparisons are to make someone’s product seem competitive and to
justify the much higher price (double or more).
DON’T
GET LOCKED IN TO A SEWING MACHINE
An
important advantage of the PC Quilter is that it works with almost all
sewing machines and quilting frames. If you later wish to purchase a
sewing machine with a larger throat, or a different frame, your
investment in robotics can transfer to your new setup. We build all
our products to be upgradeable. We always have. Others mostly do not –
if you change the frame or sewing machine, your robotics investment
will be down the drain (or must be sold at less than half what you
paid for it). This is by design to increase their profits. We have a
different more customer friendly business model – many of our
customer’s have inexpensively upgraded their
PCQ’s when they get a different frame or sewing machine.
Planned obsolescence built into some of the “me too” look-alike
products will cost you the customer a lot of money in the long run.
WHY
DOES OUR PRODUCT COST SO MUCH LESS?
Some
vendors believe in the principal that if they charge more (like
double). you will think it is a better quality product. Not so. The
PCQ is extremely well built and much copied. Engineers are very
impressed with our product quality. The look-alike products, in
general, are not nearly as well built. You are just paying for a
higher overhead and higher profits. We have sold more quilting
robotics than all the other companies put together. We have an
efficient US factory and almost 10 years of experience doing this.
Sure, most of the look-alike products sew well but there is a lot more
than sewing quality you need to know about – such as software
features, upgradeability (and the track record of the company in that
regard), quality inside, proven reliability and more.
DO
YOUR HOMEWORK TO BE SURE YOU PURCHASE THE RIGHT PRODUCT, NOT JUST THE
ONE YOU SEE AT A QUILT SHOW.
Our
sales are primarily by internet – you are buying directly from the
manufacturer. That saves you thousands of dollars. We also have
representatives who can demonstrate The PCQ
to you. And there are videos on our website of the
PCQ doing its thing - quilting of course
