Baby Lock Acclaim Overlocker

Overlocking changes the way you sew. The Baby Lock Acclaim changes the way you overlock...! It is the first in the Babylock range with a Revolution-Air threading system for needles and loopers and also the Wave Stitch.

Baby Lock has put overlock serging in a whole new light to make it a friendly and effortless way for everyone who wants to sew. You've got it made with the Baby Lock Acclaim sergers. Because of the new patents, it seams perfect. Baby Lock decided to completely redesign the serger, which is why patents were necessary. This machine is so revolutionary, it's almost unfair to call it a overlocker.

What is REVOLUTION-AIR Threading

It completely eliminates all of the difficulties with threading an overlock. The Acclaim has the ability to air thread needles and loopers, just the twist of a level and the press of a button, and you are threaded up ready to go. The New needle threading system is so much fun, the revoultion-air system literally sucks the thread through the needle, you don't even have to get close up. It does the job for you. Needle threading is quick and easy. A turn of a lever and a push of a button automatically threads the eye of each needle. 

Baby Lock Acclaim is the world's first overlocker with "Revolution-Air Threading" and "Automatic Thread Delivery". One twist of a lever and push of a button automatically and instantly jet airs thread through the tubular loopers. turn the lever the other way and bring down the rubberised needle threader, push the button, and effortlessly thread the needles. So simple, so fast, so easy.

The patented tubular looper threading and needle threading systems protect and control each thread as it travels through the needle or looper eye. And, best of all, the Baby Lock Acclaim eliminates threading confusion because it threads in any order. Use the power of your finger to thread the loopers, with a quick button press.

Does The Acclaim Have Thread Tensions?

The Babylock Acclaim has the Automatic Thread Delivery (ATD) system. This removes the problems found with thread tensions on an overlocker, no, the Acclaim does not have thread tensions like a regular overlocker, thanks to ADT, no tension problems.

The ADT will only allow the correct amount of thread to be delivered to form your desired stitch. In conjunction with custom stitch length and width settings, the ADT does away with the headaches of puckering, stretching, or using heavy, bulky, or sheer fabrics, it also creates the wavy seams. The Acclaim takes the guesswork out of selecting tension settings.

The Acclaim handles special and decorative threads as easily as standard cone threads, which means you can effortlessly embellish your creation with the fanciest and finest threads. The Acclaim also has a decorative wave stitch.

Key Acclaim Features:

Differential Feed Adjustment

Complete fabric manipulation is possible on the Acclaim because of Baby Lock's full-featured differential feed. The feed system works with all fabrics and in multiple sewing applications. It prevents seams from waving, fabrics from stretching, and wovens from puckering. Yet, it delivers a true 2 to 1 ratio for gathering. 

Heavy-Duty Cutting System

No matter what the fabric weight, the Acclaim blades cut through it like butter. A twist of a dial engages and disengages the blade. Lock the blade and it becomes a sewing guide. Unlock it and it trims the fabrics as you sew. The Acclaim also has an extra high 6mm Presser foot lift height.

Stitch Length and Rolled Hem Dial

A single dial delivers automatic rolled hems, rolled edges, and stitch length adjustments. A turn of this dial switches the Acclaim from three-thread stitching to a narrow rolled hem. Long and short stitch lengths can be dialed without stopping the machine for any stitch, 4, 3, or 2 thread, flatlock or rolled hem. Customize the stitch length to fit every sewing project, from overedging to seaming as well as decorative overlocking.
