The Inventors obtained a US-Patent in 1929 (US1707263A) - so if you want to find out how it works or build your own, you can download the fulltext here: http://v3.espacenet.com/searchResults?locale=en_V3&NUM=US1707263A Anyway - embroidery machines are pretty awesome. If jacquard-looms were the first raster graphics devices, then this machine is the mother of scalable vector graphics :-) The automatic embroidery machine was invented by Franz Josef Gahlert and Max Bretschneider in the 1920s, and was produced by the Company Würker in Dresden.
