The Slim Line 2 Chassis
The heart of the Slim Line Clamping System is the Clamping Chassis. This is how the top and bottom windows are loaded to hold the fabric and backing to be embroidered. The single lever opens, closes and locks the windows, sandwiching the fabric and backing in between the top and bottom windows. The clamping windows mount to the base and clamp arms and the mounting adapter attaches to the sides. All this in a package that is only 1” high.
Window Sets
Window Sets for the Slim Line 1 come as a 2 piece set. There is a base adapterwindow that fits into the base of the clamp chassis, and a top clamping window. The window sizes are quickly and easily changed by hand I seconds with no tools required.
There are (7) different window sizes to choose from with the Slim Line 2 Clamping System.

Mounting Adapters
The SLIM LINE Clamps attach directly to the drive bar/drive rail of the embroidery machine and because each machine is different, we make mounting adapters to fit specific machines. Adapter styles are available for nearly all major industrial embroidery machine manufacturers and machine types.
