My experience is pretty much the same. I have run 3 machines since June
last year. (2 pre XT & 1 XT). I have changed digitizers, threads,
needles, bobbin styles and still cant manage to get better than an
average 6800 stitches between thread breaks.
I would be interested to hear the average from other users

Subject: [amayausers] thread breaks
Hi folks - I'm about 5 million stitches in with
my 2 AMAYA XTs over the past few months and can't
seem to shake recurring thread breaks, even on
simple text or Dakota designs. There are two
main issues I'm trying to solve before calling in
the tech. They happen on both machines that were
set up at the same time.
1) frequently after a thread cut, the needle
doesn't pick up the bobbin. I'd say this happens
on about 10% of the cuts and at different points
in the pattern when I do multiple runs.
2) I also get upper thread breaks about every
7500 stitches on average and most of the time
there is a snapping or popping sound which to me
means a tension issue, although I could be wrong.
Like I said, I'm ready to call in the techs but
want to see if there is a simple solution I can
try first. I'm ready to go into volume
production mode once I get these issues resolved.
If it helps, I have the "pre-release Red and
White XT's bought around New Years. Any help is
greatly appreciated.
thanks
