What it is

A single-head 15-needle embroidery machine with a 360 × 500 mm tubular field, an 86 × 360 mm wide cap frame and frames for finished products up to 380 × 438 mm. This page also covers the compact CAII, the 1200 mm V1200 and the drop-table CII.

Who it's for

Uniform rooms, embroidery shops and personalisation studios in the UAE, the GCC, Ghana, Kenya and Ethiopia, and multi-head factories that need a machine for samples and names.

Why this model

Choose it for short runs and samples on caps and finished garments: it stitches at up to 1,300 rpm on tubular work and needs only a single-phase socket.

A single head beside your multi-heads

Many embroidery rooms run a BEKT next to their multi-heads for samples, names and rush orders. We set it up with the frames your products need.

What the BEKT-S1501CBIII does on a factory floor

Barudan BEKT automat name drop screen separating names in a design

Name drop

Embroider each name in a list on its own

Name drop separates the names in a multiple-name design, so each one can be viewed and embroidered on its own. The name list shows every name with its stitch count, and the thumbnail list lets the operator pick the next one.

On the factory floorName drop separates the names in one design, so the operator picks each name from the list and every team kit or staff uniform carries its own name.

Barudan new trimmer and narrow cylinder arm

New trimmer and narrow cylinder arm

Deeper into finished products

A smaller-diameter cylinder arm and the new trimmer let the BEKT-S1501CBIII embroider deeper into confined areas of finished products. The new tensioner makes thread tension easier to set and thread breaks more reliable to detect.

On the factory floorThe smaller cylinder arm and new trimmer reach deeper into confined areas, so designs go on finished products a wider arm would not fit into.

Barudan laser pointer marking the needle position on the garment

Laser pointer and LED light

See where the design will land

A laser pointer marks the needle position on the garment, and an LED back light lights the embroidery area under the head. The automat has an 8.4 inch touch screen and holds 100 designs and 70 million stitches.

On the factory floorThe laser pointer marks the needle position on the garment and the LED light shows the area, so the operator checks the logo position before stitching starts.

Ask on WhatsApp

Is the BEKT-S1501CBIII the same as the BEKT-S1501CB3?

Yes. CBIII and CB3 are the same third-generation BEKT-S1501CB single head. The BEKT continues in 2026 with its 8.4 inch automat while Barudan's multi-heads move to the L series.

What is the price of a Barudan BEKT-S1501CBIII in the UAE?

It depends on the model, the number of heads, the embroidery field and the frames. Send us your products and monthly pieces on WhatsApp or through the enquiry form and we send an AED quotation for the machine, frames, delivery and installation.

What is the price of the Barudan BEKT-S1501CBIII in Ghana, Kenya or Ethiopia?

It depends on the model, the frames and the delivery to your city, for example Accra, Nairobi or Addis Ababa. Send us your products and your city on WhatsApp and we reply within one working day with an AED quotation for the machine, frames, delivery and installation.

Which older Barudan single head does the BEKT-S1501CBIII replace?

It is the third generation of the BEKT-S1501CB. Before the BEKT, Barudan's single heads were the BEXT, such as the BEXT-S1501CBII and BEXT-S1501CAII, and before those the BEVT-Z1501CB. If you run one of these, send us the model and serial number and we will confirm parts and service.

Which BEKT single head should I choose?

The CAII is the most compact (250 × 400 mm). The CBIII is the all-rounder (360 × 500 mm, 1,300 rpm). The V1200 adds a 360 × 1200 mm field for banners and flags. The CII has the largest field, 450 × 520 mm, on a drop-table frame.

Does the BEKT embroider caps and hats?

Yes. The CBIII and V1200 take an 86 × 360 mm wide cap frame, the CII a 79 × 360 mm frame and the CAII a 72 × 360 mm frame. Caps run at up to 1,000 rpm.

What power does a Barudan single head need?

A single-phase 100-240 V supply; it draws 0.225 kW. No three-phase connection is needed.

Do you install the machine and train our operators?

Yes. Our technicians install, level and test-run every Barudan we supply, complete Barudan's installation check sheet and train your operators on the automat, hooping, thread tension and daily care.
