50 Years of innovation

The vision of two employees of a Japanese industrial overlocker manufacturer led to the world's first overlock machine developed and built for  home sewing.  Home sewing was revolutionised!

baby lock machines are hand-built in the  factory in Japan in limited quanities each year. Each machine is extensively tested by baby lock's trained sewers, who stitch 30 different seams to guarantee the highest quality before delivery. Every looper is polished, inspected, tested and fine-tuned by hand.

baby lock are so confident in their product they offer a 2 year warranty which the new owner can extent to 4!

Air-threading closed looper system

Insert the thread into a looper port, push the lever or button and,  with a shot of air, the looper is threaded  automatically through the enclosed looper tubes.

This innovative system has eliminated looper threading and stitching problems.

Baby lock was the first to bring you air-threading overlockers, cover stitch and combaination machines.

Never be outwitted, frustrated or bamboozled by your loopers again!
