Re: Tajima Vs Melco - Amaya Xt
There is a sensor that monitors the tension of the thread. If the thread is pulled too tight it will tell the machine to feed more thread. If it gets too loose, it will reduce the amount of thread fed.
I will admit, these can be frustrating at times. However, if you have a good design and proper settings, they run well. I notice that at the shows they have the Amayas cranked up to show how fast it can go and I have noticed that you can't run them wide open, especially on hats. Flats can be set pretty quick but hats need to be slowed down. BTW- What part of NC are you in??

Re: Tajima Vs Melco - Amaya Xt
I have used both and dealt with both tech supports. Melco Amayas are pure garbage. That thread feed system without the ability to adjust thread tension is the death of that machine. The machines are never consistant. Tajima is the way to go. Perfect everytime, without the kind of daily maintainance that an Amaya needs. Stay away from Melco.
