The VERITAS Florence is mainly operated via a mobile app for smartphones and tablets. Basic sewing functions can also be carried out directly on the machine.

Green: The machine is ready to sew or embroider. If the upper thread is broken or the bobbin is almost empty, the green light flashes three times and then lights up continuously.

The machine offers 120 stitch programs and a 1-step buttonhole program

The VERITAS Florence is compatible with a variety of embroidery file formats, including *.zhs, *.pes, *.dst, *.jef, *.xxx, *.hus, *.exp, *.pec, *.pcs, *.sew, *.vip and *.vp3. This allows users to import and use embroidery designs from different sources without having to worry about compatibility issues.

The VERITAS Florence is supplied with two embroidery hoops: a larger hoop measuring 120 x 180 mm and a smaller hoop measuring 50 x 70 mm. These different sizes make it possible to implement both smaller and larger embroidery projects and to adapt flexibly to the respective requirements.

1. preparation:

- Select embroidery design: Select an embroidery design from the app and adjust it in size, color and position if required.
- Send design to machine: Send the selected embroidery design to the machine.

6. start the embroidery process:

Yes, the VERITAS Florence is very well suited for the production of individual patches or patches. You can either use embroidery motifs from the app, import them or design them yourself using the appropriate programs. A sturdy patch fabric and often an additional stabilizer are used to create patches. After embroidering, the patch is cut out and either sewn over with a zigzag stitch or covered with iron-on foil so that it can be ironed onto textiles. Appliqués, where pieces of fabric are embroidered onto another piece of fabric, are also possible. The machine can also embroider border patterns for patches, or the border can be sewn with a zigzag stitch.

The automatic sewing function makes it possible to lock the start and end of the seam by sewing several times in the same place, creating a knot that secures the seam. This function eliminates the need to sew forwards and backwards several times at the start and end of a seam.

Yes, the machine has a sensor that indicates when the upper or lower thread breaks or runs out.

Yes, the thread tension is basically automated, but can also be adjusted manually. The basic setting is “4”. There are separate settings for sewing and embroidery

The “MyPatterns” app is required to control the VERITAS Florence and can be downloaded here:

All settings, selecting stitch patterns, customizing embroidery motifs and starting/stopping the sewing or embroidery process are controlled via the app. The app can also be used to import embroidery files, adjust colors and edit designs.

The connection between the machine and the mobile device can be established via a direct WLAN connection (point-to-point) or via an existing WLAN network (router mode). This enables flexible and modern control of the machine.

An active WIFI connection is required to use all the functions of the VERITAS Florence and to control the machine from a tablet/smartphone. It is also a prerequisite for carrying out software updates.

The VERITAS Florence offers two options for connecting to a smartphone or tablet:

• Point-to-point connection: This direct wifi connection enables communication between the mobile device and the machine without an internet connection. Here, a separate WiFi connection is established that begins with EMB_FN.
• Router mode: In this mode, the machine is integrated into the existing Wi-Fi network, which means that Internet access is maintained on the mobile device and the app can therefore also use other functions such as importing new embroidery files.

When setting up for the first time, it is important to use the correct Wi-Fi password and to ensure that the machine firmware and the app are up to date.

The VERITAS Florence comes with a comprehensive set of accessories suitable for both sewing and embroidery work. Here is a detailed list of the accessories:
All-purpose presser foot, zipper foot, buttonhole foot, satin stitch foot, button presser foot, blind hem foot, overlock foot, darning/embroidery foot, 3 bobbins, edge/quilting ruler, bobbin holder (large), bobbin holder (small), felt pad for bobbin pin, second bobbin pin, 5x quality needles, L-screwdriver, screwdriver, seam ripper / cleaning brush, thread net, embroidery hoop (120 x 180 mm), embroidery hoop (50 x 70 mm), CD or bonus DVD with additional embroidery motifs, straight stitch plate, embroidery bobbin case, protective cover, VERITAS starter kit (includes: 2 embroidery threads for bobbin thread white, 11 embroidery threads for upper thread colored, embroidery scissors, tweezers, stabilizer, instructions)

The satin stitch foot is a special presser foot developed for sewing satin stitches and other decorative stitches. It is characterized by a continuous notch on the underside. This notch allows the foot to glide easily over the thickness of the stitch shape created by closely spaced zigzag stitches and to feed the fabric evenly.

The blind stitch foot is a special presser foot that has been developed for sewing invisible hems. It is used to sew hems so that the seam on the right side of the fabric is barely visible or not visible at all.
