Features No Other Commercial Embroidery Machine Can Touch:
MULTI-HEAD FLEXIBILITY
Imagine a scalable embroidery system that allows you/your business to your embroidery production as-needed. The BERNINA E 16 grows with YOU! This modular embroidery system is simply better than a standard multi-head embroidery machine, because you can add single-heads to the system at any time. You also have the freedom to configure your embroidery machines to match your production needs. Even when in multi-head configurations, individual heads can be setup for embroidering on different products. FOR EXAMPLE: you may have three heads running baseball caps and one running a polo shirt.
LASER ALIGNMENT
Embroidery positioning is easy & accurate with Laser Alignment.
THREAD SYSTEM
The BERNINA E 16 PLUS delivers the precise amount of thread needed at any given time, resulting in the highest quality stitching at the fastest speeds possible.
SMALL, CYLINDRICAL LOWER ARM
Embroidery on socks, shirt pockets, golf club covers and other tight spaces is possible due to the small size of the lower arm on the BERNINA E 16 PLUS.

Section 179 is a tax code created to help businesses.
By allowing businesses to deduct the full amount of the purchase price of equipment (up to certain limits), Section 179 is a fantastic incentive for businesses to purchase, finance or lease equipment this year. To qualify for a deduction, equipment has to be placed in service by December 31st.
I attached a Section 179 flier which has a section to enter the customer’s equipment cost which then figures their potential tax deduction if they proceed with that equipment. This could be a helpful sales tool
