Have you ever heard of a floppy disk drive to usb emulator? No? Well read on because it could be just what you are looking for.

Unfortunately some people work with machines that solely rely on floppy disks. As floppy disk s become more archaic they become harder to purchase from retail stores. This is where the floppy disk to usb emulator comes in.

Thanks to modern technology this floppy disk drive to usb emulator allows you to use a usb like a floppy disk. All you have to do is select the correct floppy disk to usb emulator that is right for your machine. The rest is simple, there are no tedious steps involved an no level of engineering skills required. Just disconnect the old floppy disk drive and reconnect the floppy disk to usb emulator. It really is that simple. Once you have completed the swap over you will be able to use a usb as a floppy.

The magic of this device is that your floppy drive will read the usb drive that is connected and process the information as a floppy, which means all the data that gets transferred to your machine will be transferred in the same way as a standard floppy. Basically your equipment will never know that it is not reading a floppy disk.

The benefits of using a floppy to usb device are:

-   A usb can hold as much information as 100 floppy disks therefore you will not need as much storage space -   Since you will use 1 usb for 100 floppy disks you are saving money and helping the environment -   Floppy disks are affected by items which generate a magnetic effect like mobile phones -   Floppy disks are severely affected by dust, a usb does not suffer as much from dust -   A floppy disk is more easily worn out by mechanical movement -   The ratio of good to bad when buying a box of floppy disks is 7:3 on first use

For compatibility purposes there are 2 different types of floppy disk to usb emulators available. The first one is the standard 34 pin full height interface version which comes with 3 different format versions - .44mb, 720 kb double density and 1.2 mb formats. The second form of emulator is the 26 pin Ziff type interface with half height slim version which has 2 different versions - 1.44, 720 kb double density versions.

If you don’t think your machine will be compatible with the floppy to usb emulator here are some embroidery machines that have easily been configured to use this technology: Tajima, Melco, SWF, Lasser, Saurer , Happy , Barudan and Brother.

Other machines that can be upgraded are: Medical Equipment Machines, Knitting Machines, Textile Machines, CNC Machines, EDM Machines, Wire Cutting Machines, Robotics from ABB+ to musical instrument Machines from Yamaha and Korg.

If you are someone who owns a machine that has not been able to keep up with modern technology do some research into this product as it could save you a lot of time and money.
