Your Brilliant Combo Machine for Overlock, Coverstitch, Chainstitch and Combination Stitches

The Bernette 68 AIRLOCK is a versatile combo machine combining overlock, coverstitch, chainstitch and combination stitches in one powerful machine. Whether you are working with jersey, denim, stretch fabrics, or other favourite materials, the b68 provides the flexibility needed to create professional-looking seams and finishes.

With 31 different stitches, automatic air threading for the looper threads, a spacious 130 mm working area, integrated freearm, five bright LEDs, Micro Thread Control, and a convenient knee lifter, the bernette 68 AIRLOCK is designed to make a wide range of sewing projects easier and more enjoyable.

Features That Make the Difference

  • Colour-coded threading paths for easier threading

  • 31 different stitches

  • 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-thread stitch options

  • 130 mm / 5-inch space to the right of the needle

  • Large slide-on table included

  • 5 bright LED lights for excellent visibility

  • Sewing speeds of up to 1,300 stitches per minute

  • Micro Thread Control (mtc)

  • Integrated freearm for cuffs and tubular projects

  • Knee lifter included

Automatic Air Threader for Easy Looper Threading

Threading the loopers is made considerably easier with the automatic air threader. Simply place the thread into the appropriate air-threading nozzle and activate the system to guide the looper thread through the machine.

The colour-coded threading paths also make it easier to identify the correct threading route when preparing the machine for sewing.

31 Stitches for Versatile Sewing

The Bernette 68 AIRLOCK offers 31 stitch options, giving you the flexibility to work with different fabrics, techniques, and finishing requirements.

The available stitch options include:

  • 2-, 3- and 4-thread overlock stitches

  • 3-thread super stretch stitch

  • 2- and 3-thread flatlock

  • 3-thread narrow seam

  • 2- and 3-thread rolled hem

  • 2-thread wrapped overlock

  • 4-thread coverstitch

  • 3-thread wide and narrow coverstitch

  • 2-thread chainstitch

  • 4- and 5-thread safety stitch

  • Combination stitches

This broad selection makes the b68 suitable for everything from everyday overlocking and seam finishing to coverstitching and stretch-fabric projects.

Spacious 130 mm Working Area

With 130 mm / 5 inches of space to the right of the needle, the bernette 68 AIRLOCK provides a generous working area for larger sewing projects.

The additional space is particularly useful when working with coverstitching, heavy fabrics, garments, and projects that require comfortable fabric handling in front of and behind the needle.

Super-Large Slide-On Table

The included large slide-on table provides additional workspace and makes fabric guiding more comfortable.

The rounded working surface allows fabric to glide smoothly across the machine, while the matching coverstitch insert extends the sewing area and works together with the slide-on table.

This is particularly useful when handling larger sewing projects.

5 Bright LEDs for Excellent Visibility

The bernette 68 AIRLOCK features five bright LED lights positioned around the needle and working area.

The well-lit workspace makes it easier to see your fabric, needles, and looper area while sewing. It also provides better visibility when threading and changing settings.

Micro Thread Control (mtc)

The Micro Thread Control (mtc) system helps save time while maintaining consistent stitch quality.

Once the thread tension has been set, the mtc system allows you to maintain the desired stitch quality even when changing the cutting width or working with different fabric thicknesses.

This makes fine-tuning your overlock stitches more convenient.

Convenient Knee Lifter and Freearm

The included knee lifter allows you to lower or temporarily raise the presser foot using your knee, keeping both hands free to position and guide the fabric.

The integrated freearm is especially useful when sewing tubular projects such as cuffs and other smaller, curved areas.

High-Speed Sewing

The Bernette 68 AIRLOCK can sew at speeds of up to 1,300 stitches per minute, allowing you to complete seams and finishing work efficiently.

Combined with its wide selection of overlock, coverstitch, chainstitch, and combination stitches, the machine provides the flexibility needed for both everyday sewing and more demanding projects.
