A good rule of thumb would be about 40 hours of continuous use, but there are many variables, starting with what types of fabric you are using. Also, if you run a lot of jobs that only use a few needles, and you always start with needle #1, your low-numbered needles will wear out before the higher-numbered ones. So, if you're trying to get the most out of your needles, you might want to skip around to get even wear across all of them. For me, I've been running these machines long enough that I can just hear them sounding different when they start to get dull. It's kind of a "thump" that they start to make when they aren't poking through cleanly. When that happens, I just change all the needles in the machine at once, because it's easier than trying to keep track of which ones I changed and when. Needles are pretty low-cost, really.

我也要好好的來去清潔一下我的機器
I just bought my first embroidery machine, an MB7. How often do you change needles? Is there a way to know how many stitches there are on each needle?
