aurora 430 – The one for everyone and every application.

The aurora sewing machine is a sensation, making sewing easier than ever before. A wealth of new functions and the greatest possible ease of operation make the aurora a sewing machine for everyone and every application. Like the aurora 440 – a superb quilter – the aurora 430 is an outstanding sewer, with numerous practical and decorative stitches, several alphabets, buttonholes, and oodles of other BERNINA functions which make sewing easier as well as a true pleasure. Thanks to the optional embroidery module, the BERNINA ArtDesign software, and the unique embroidery control via PC, the aurora 430 can be transformed into a full-fledged embroidery machine.

Start/stop button



Start/stop button

The aurora’s start/stop button is especially practical, rendering the use of a foot control unnecessary and making quick sewing positively relaxing. The aurora’s separate bobbin winder is new, practical, and incredibly convenient. With the aurora, you can fill empty bobbins during the sewing, embroidery or quilting process, without interrupting your work.

Speed control

Speed control

With the help of the easily accessible speed control, the sewing speed of the aurora can be adapted to the project at hand – slow for precision work, faster for general sewing work. This function can also be used for bobbin winding.

Needle Threader
