Well, I don't know how practical in your production but in our
production.......
I have 4 12 heads, 1 18 head, 8 Melco Single heads, and 4 Amaya XT's and we
run both Rayon and Poly depending on the job.
We use Rayon about 95% of the time, it's a matter of quality embroidery, and
our customers expect it.
If you want quality... You must use Rayon, if you want production and don't
care too much about longevity of machines then use Poly.
And our XT's run very well at high speed on Robison Anton Rayon.

Ernie,
I switched to Poly 2 years ago. Its not practical to try and run both rayon
an poly in production.
The amaya cant run ryaon anyway. Too may thread brakes at high speed.

Anand, you guys in Australia can get the best Rayon in the world from Japan
and Southeast Asia, we in the US cannot. They cannot be imported in.
I had a distributor here in Los Angeles that was bringing thread in from
Japan and from Malaysia and they got slammed by Customs, I used their thread
exclusively for many years.
This is the rule of thumb for thread use Rayon vs. Polyester
Rayon is used for fine embroidery and for more shine on regular garments.
Poly is used for mostly items that will be commercially laundered.
Poly is very hard on machines, it will cut up most thread guides 10 times
faster than cotton and probably 50 times faster than rayon. But it is more
forgiving to badly timed machines and bad designs that tend to make the
machine break thread a lot. It also requires heavier tensions that will
pucker the embroidery after a while.
Rayon is very delicate specially black and white, machine must be in top
condition and design must be well digitized. It's not very forgiving to
outdoor use, to heavy laundering. But will look best specially on fills.
This is from my own personally experience.
I've heard other reason pro and con for both threads, but we've been doing
automated machine embroidery for 24 years, and for 30 years before that with
manual Zig Zag embroidery machines. And we repair our won machines except
for the new Amaya XT's that we just got.

Thanks every one. Unfortunately the Australian distributor stocks only
rayon.
