Check your presser foot height. Not the needle depth but height of the foot. Is the needle to close to the presser foot?
Barudan Needles breaking
i'm currently running a barudan bensme zn machine and i'm having issues with it breaking needles.
on head #4, needle #3 is constantly breaking needles. all the other needles on head #4 are working just fine. i checked the tension on it and it looks like it is alright. i switched out bobbin and it will still break needles. i checked the presser foot to make sure it wasn't bent and it is not. not exactly sure what the issue is.
i would be eternally grateful if anyone will share their thoughts as to what might be causing the problem. i greatly appreciate it. thanks.

i will check the height of the presser foot. the needle is right in the center. doesn't come close to either side of the presser foot, but i will check the height of the presser foot. thanks for the suggestion.
you're sure its not the design or the garment? we had a certain type of cap that was breaking needles like crazy.
positive it is not the design or garments as i have ran out 3 different logos on different garments. one was performance fabric, another was pique and the last one was twill. all of them broke needles on the same needle #.
i'm starting to wonder if maybe it is a bad spool of thread that might be causing it.?.?.?
It would fray a lot if it was. Check your thread path make sure nothing is caught.i'm starting to wonder if maybe it is a bad spool of thread that might be causing it.?.?.?
