Brother USB Floppy Replacement For Embroidery Machines

The FUSB simulates a floppy drive to the embroidery machine (or any other equipment that uses a standard floppy drive) and uses the standard floppy power and data cables. The machine thinks a floppy drive is still connected but, in fact, you now have a standard USB interface on your equipment now. You simply format your USB flash drive with the enclosed software to the correct floppy size and copy your embroidery files.

The operation of your embroidery machine is no different than before. You use the same menus and commands to load designs as you do now but you won't hear that grinding sound you're used to hearing from your old floppy drive. Instead, your machine will quietly load the embroidery design and you're ready to go.

When using the USB flash on your computer, it will look like another drive that you simply copy embroidery files to or save them directly from your software. It's quick and simple and, best yet, USB flash drives can be used over and over (rated at over 100,000 uses). And, while the capacity of flash disks continues to grow, the less expensive flash drives that you see at the checkout counter at the grocery store for $5 is even more capacity than you will need so you can keep a collection of flash drives for very little cost and you can get them almost anywhere.

The FUSB Standard works with most Tajima, Happy, Barudan, SWF, Melco, Toyota, Brother, and other commercial embroidery and textile machines that use a floppy drive. Some machines have a bezel over the floppy drive with a wide narrow slot for a disk to slide through that may not have space for a USB flash drive. In such a case, it is necessary to modify the bezel or remove it.

We are preparing new documentation and retail packaging for the FUSB and are selling these through eBay at this price until our packaging is ready. At that time, we will offer these at full retail price so we don't compete with our wholesale customers. This is a great opportunity to get a USB drive for about the same price as a replacement floppy for your machine. If you are an embroidery machine dealer or do machine maintenance and installations, we offer these in bulk at wholesale rates and would be happy to set up a special auction just for you.
