Industrial Embroidery Safety

Software

Machine stitch files in the Barudan format can be loaded into the embroidery machine's memory from a USB key. Wilcom TruSizer software can be used to convert from most embroidery machine stitch file formats to the Barudan format. This software will also convert Wilcom embroidery design file formats (.emb and .art) to the Barudan machine stitch file format. There are three versions of TruSizer:

  • Web: browser-based, free
  • Desktop: Windows only, free
  • Pro: Windows only, $49

The Pro version is available at Maker Nexus.

To create your own embroidery files, embroidery digitizing software is required. Maker Nexus has one copy of Wilcom Hatch Digitizer. The Hatch software creates design files in .emb format which can be converted to Barudan stitch format using TruSizer.
