The new BABY LOCK BLS3 Victory overlocker – made in Japan and exceptional, like all BABY LOCK machines.
What makes this overlocker so special?
Can you imagine sewing with a machine that uses four threads at once, but where you don't need to adjust the tension of each thread separately, because the machine does it for you? And it makes no difference what threads or fabrics you are sewing with.
All this tricky work is done for you by the patented Automatic Thread Delivery System™ (automatic thread tension system), which sets the correct thread tension itself when sewing any type of fabric. The only thing you need to do is choose the sewing operation you want with a single dial. And that's not all this unique machine offers. The biggest problem when sewing with an overlocker is threading correctly in a particular order. Miss a hook and the machine won't sew, skips stitches, tangles threads, breaks needles, etc. With the BABY LOCK BLS3 Victory you can stop worrying about such problems, because you no longer need to thread the loopers – all this is done for you by the patented ExtraordinAir Threading System™ (compressed air system): just press a lever and the threads are drawn into the loopers by a jet of compressed air.
Finding it hard to thread the needles? Maybe on your old overlocker, but not on the BABY LOCK BLS3 Victory, because this overlocker has a patented threading system even for the needles – the Needle Threading System™. It is an exceptionally precise threading system that lets you thread both needles quickly and easily without any fuss.
Another exclusive feature of BABY LOCK overlockers is the vertical needle system, designed to ensure stable fabric penetration and prevent the needles from deflecting, which very often happens with overlockers from all other manufacturers. As a result, needles break or bend when they hit the loopers or, worst of all, break the loopers themselves.
This model also stands out for its presser foot lift, increased to 6 mm.
We could go on listing all the outstanding technical features of this great machine, but suffice it to say that it incorporates as many as 10 worldwide patents, and no one will doubt that it is one of the best overlockers ever made.
Jet-Air Threading™ Threading
The unique patented Jet-Air Threading™ Threading system and top-quality steel tube loopers – threading has never been this easy, because the machine threads itself. The loopers are threaded by a jet of compressed air – no more tweezers, no threading sequence, no complicated threading diagrams or colour-coded markings – just press a button and the thread threads itself. Threading is so simple and convenient that you will want to do it even when you don't need to.
Enjoy this machine before you even start sewing, because no one apart from Baby Lock has ever made machines like this.
Baby Lock Victory – the most popular and best-selling Baby Lock overlocker in the world. Baby Lock sells more of these than of any other machine in its range.
The machine features the Automatic Thread Delivery™ System (ATD), an automatic thread tension system perfected to the highest precision, which works flawlessly whatever you sew – the finest silks or the thickest fabrics. You will never again have to think about how to balance and adjust the threads to get a beautiful seam. With this system your seams will always be perfect.
With the Baby Lock Victory your possibilities will never be limited, and whatever you do, you'll always be a winner.
Baby Lock Victory machine features:
-
Jet-Air Threading™ looper threading system
No more struggling with tweezers while studying confusing diagrams to thread the machine. Simply insert the end of the thread into the port and press the button. That's it! The threads are exactly where they need to be. Unbelievable, but it works perfectly.
Automatic Thread Delivery (ATD) system
Stop worrying about how to adjust the threads to get a beautiful seam. Just sew, and the Enlighten Automatic Thread Delivery (ATD) automatic thread tension system will do everything for you so perfectly that you won't believe it's possible. From now on sew anything – the finest silks or the heaviest denim. The result will always be the same – a perfect seam.
Presser foot lift height up to 6 mm.
On the Victory, the presser foot lifts as high as 6.0 mm. From now on, no problems even when sewing thick items
Bright 2-LED lighting
See everything clearly. The new-technology bright LED lighting system always illuminates your work perfectly and gives you extra comfort and safety while working.
Differential control of the fabric feed system
The Baby Lock Victory fabric feed system is unique. Unlike other manufacturers' machines, it has a single feed dog system, which ensures more stable fabric feed and differential control.
Needle Threading system™
Patented needle threading system. Threading the needles is easier than easy. Simply lower the threading mechanism and hook the thread. Release it and in a moment the thread is in the needle eye.
Knife system
Patented knife system – fabric edge trimming, fabric feed and needle action are synchronised (worldwide patent). The knives themselves are made of top-quality hardened steel coated with a special ebonite layer.
Convenient combined stitch length and rolled hem adjuster
On the Baby Lock Victory, the stitch length dial is in a very convenient position and is very versatile. Use it to adjust the stitch length, and if you need a fine, dense seam, simply turn the dial to the Rolled Hem position.
Vertical needle bar system
All Baby Lock machines have an exclusive patented needle bar system that is vertical rather than slanted as on other manufacturers' machines. This system protects the needles from breaking, provides greater penetration force and works better with the looper system, which prevents skipped stitches.
Some examples of stitches sewn by the Baby Lock Victory:
4-thread overlock stitch for knits
3-thread overlock stitch, wide
2-thread decorative stitch
3-thread overlock stitch, narrow
