The Brother Stellaire Innov-is XV is now discontinued and now replaced with the New XJ2 or EV1
You're serious about sewing – and now, with the Innov-is XV, you can invest in your talent. Everything's easier, faster and more intuitive than ever. See exactly where the needle will drop. Convert scanned images to embroidery data in just a few seconds. Add stippling embroidery where you like. This is the machine on which you'll perfect your skills.
My Design Center
My Design Center allows you to create your own embroidery designs quickly and easily, directly on the Innov-is XV touch screen. This powerful and unique feature allows you to create your own embroidery designs from clip art image les or draw directly on the large touch screen.
Powerful editing features
The many built-in embroidery designs can be customised to your preferences – combine them, change their size, rotate them, repeat them, add lettering and change colours.
Line art recognition
Prepare to be amazed. An inspiring new feature on the Innov-is XV is its ability to recognise line art. That means you can automatically create beautiful embroidery from hand-drawn designs, such as gra ti, pattern templates or even your signature. You simply use pen and paper to draw the outline, then put the paper on the scanning frame. The camera scans and recognises it. It’s then automatically turned into embroidery data on the Innov-is XV. You can also trace graphics with a pen to create running embroidery just like free-motion quilting. The Innov-is XV will convert a scanned image to data in seconds. Free-motion quilting normally takes lots of practice, but we’ve made it foolproof.
Autopunch
With the autopunch feature, you can now automatically turn scanned images or clip art les into embroidery data. Simply import a clip art image with the memory stick, or use the scanning frame to scan an image. The Innov-is XV will recognise the illustration and automatically translate it into embroidery data.
No computer required
Your sewing machine won’t need to be hooked up to a computer. It’s fast, fun, simple and convenient.
Stippling
With the Innov-is XV, you can easily add stippling embroidery wherever you like. You’ll achieve uniform results (unlike free-motion stippling, which relies on having a good technique). Simply hoop the fabric and choose the area where you want the stippling e ect to appear. Select the stippling stitch and watch as your chosen area automatically lls with your stippling pattern. With the Innov-is XV, you’ll enjoy professional results every time.
Colour Shuffling
The enhanced Colour Shuffling function makes it easy to choose new colour schemes for embroidery designs. Select from Random, Gradient, Vivid and Soft styles and a range of colour combinations will be displayed on screen. Simply select your preferred option and embroider the design. Now you can also choose your preferred starting colour and the Innov-is XV will generate complementary colour combinations based on your favourite colours.
Autopunch
With the autopunch feature, you can now automatically turn scanned images or clip art les into embroidery data. Simply import a clip art image with the memory stick, or use the scanning frame to scan an image. The Innov-is XV will recognise the illustration and automatically translate it into embroidery data.
Truly professional sewing
New sewing features give you consistent stitch length, laser-straight lines and uniform edge stitching. Tie-o stitches at the touch of a button, feed denims and silks with ease and customise your stitching directly onto the screen.
Lock stitch key – at the touch of a button, tie-o stitches can be sewn at the beginning and end of the stitch. When pressing the lock stitch key while sewing a decorative stitch, the machine will stop automatically after completing the motif.
ICAPS – helps to ensure consistent stitch length on all fabric thicknesses by keeping the presser foot pressure consistent, regardless of fabric thickness.
Laser line guide – next-generation laser-line guide system projects a perfect straight line onto your fabric. Simply guide your fabric along the line for straight sewing. Ideal for hems, piecing, pin tucking or cording.
Direct dual-drive – this advanced foot allows you to feed an array of fabrics such as denims or silks with ease. The motor-driven dual-drive foot can be directly adjusted from the touch screen to accommodate di erent fabrics.
Ultrasonic pen – works with sensors in the Innov-is XV to set the straight stitch needle position, to set the start and end point for your stitches and can also be used to adjust the width of zigzag and decorative stitches.
My custom stitch – allows you to create your own stitch designs directly onto the LCD touch screen. Includes more than 40 built-in stitch templates.
