Artista 640 Versatile Expertise. The artista 640 is a highly developed sewing computer with a comprehensive range of utility and decorative stitch patterns.

Key Features

BSR – BERNINA Stitch Regulator (Optional)

Introducing the sensational world-first that makes freemotion quilting easy: the BERNINA Stitch Regulator, or BSR for short. This presser foot ensures uniform stitch length, even at variable sewing speeds. The highlight of the 730’s presser foot: the BSR foot can even sew zigzag stitches.

FHS Free-Hand System

Unique to BERNINA, the FHS raises and lowers the presser foot while releasing thread tension and lowering the feed-dogs, leaving your hands free to guide your project.

USB interface and BERNINA USB Memory Stick

Use the USB interface to expand your embroidery library. You can even transfer designs using the optional Memory Stick.

Multi-function buttons

Sewing and embroidery made especially easy: The multi-function buttons let you adjust stitch length and width. In the embroidery area you can infinitely scale, position and rotate designs, as well as working with them in the tutorial. With the new user interface, all settings are instantly visible.

Infinitely adjustable presser foot pressure

Stepless control of presser foot pressure lets you optimize the even fabric feed. This helps you achieve the perfect seam with all thicknesses of fabric, from coarse to delicate.

Cool Fluorescent Light

With BERNINA's built-in CFL you can illuminate the sewing area around your needle with bright-as-day, shadow-free light.

Setup

A stroke of genius: Security Program, brightness and color of the touchscreen can be adjusted to your own personal needs.

Separate winder motor

The speed-adjustable winding device helps you save time: with the artista you can fill bobbins as you sew, embroider or quilt, without having to interrupt your work. Winding speed can be adjusted via the multi-function buttons or the touch screen.

Start / stop button and speed control

Ideal: The start / stop button and the speed control: two enormously useful features. Now you can sew without a foot control – a real help with long seams and quilting work. The speed control lets you adjust sewing speed to your personal requirements.

Stitch animation

The stitch animation lets you follow each sewing process stitch by stitch on the color screen, and the pattern end is also indicated.

Built-in Design Library

The extensive Design Library includes 80 beautiful designs and 5 fonts so you can create stunning embroidery compositions.

Large, color touch screen

The touch screen displays all the vital information in each menu: stitch width and length, presser foot pressure, feed dogs and needle position. Animations in the user interface enable easy and intuitive operation.
