I want to express to everyone a BIG THANK YOU for your messages and prayers during my down time with Covid and then pneumonia. I am feeling a whole lot better now and getting back to going to customer locations. Thank you Scott and Jonathan for continuing to do what we do and again, Thank you to everyone else for your patience and support 😀 😊

Finally!!! After 3 days of moving, leveling, unboxing/unwrapping, setting up, checking adjustments, and loads of laughs and sarcastic comments the 12 head is installed and running!!! Yea!!! Now on to the next customer. 💕

15 Heads all setup and running. #barudanamerica #barudanembroiderymachine #barudan #barudanembroidery #southernexposuretech

Had to come back to a customer today as their machine couldn't sew structured caps after I did a Yearly Service on it. I learned a lot about this model as it took me back to the "Old School" days of machine timing and things of the like. Glad it is running better now. But yes, even this Tech gets to have recalls ever so often. 🙄😁

Gotta love the old ones. 2001 4 head. fully serviced and ready to roll

PSA!!!! No Spray Grease inside your machine please!!!

The Southern Exposure Story

Southern Exposure Technical Services (SETS) began in 1999. Scott Marshall saw the need for independent certified technical service as the "big guys" began cutting their service staffs and continually raised pricing for commercial embroidery machine repair. Having cut his teeth as a service technician for Barudan, owning a 39 head, 14 employee embroidery/digitizing shop and doing service and sales for Hirsch Intl., Scott put his knowledge to work and SETS was born. With exposure to the industry since 1988, there is rarely machine situation he hasn't seen. Scott soon recognized the factory trained, "old timer" technicians were dwindling and began searching for an apprentice to personally train. In 2014 he found John.

With his finger always on the pulse of the embroidery industry, Scott strives to add products and services to meet a large number of "geriatric" machine needs. Scott also makes himself aware of the latest trends, common machine issues and continuing education to keep SETS up to date and knowledgeable. John has become the wiz kid on machine installs, trainings and the latest Barudan software. Together they are minimizing the service wait times and getting customers back up and running.

Under the critically watchful eye of Scott, SETS also sells refurbished embroidery equipment, hoops, hard to find mechanical and electronic parts as well as the Gator Clamp. The Gator Clamp may just be the answer to your tricky hooping needs!

We service Barudan, Tajima, and most Toyota 9000 and 9100 commercial embroidery machines. Give us a call today to discuss your embroidery situation and we will do our best to get your embroidery machines up and humming~
