Identity and compatibility badges
Identity families, physical traits, and OEM accessory groups stay separate. A group badge applies only to its named program and domains.

BERNINA 5 Series
The clever sewing experts
We developed the BERNINA 5 Series for ambitious modern creatives.
These machines are the perfect size and offer lots of advantages. All
the models can be conveniently operated via the large colour touch
screen. The smart models in this series make sewing, embroidery and
quilting even easier thanks to their practical functions. The all-rounder
of the 5 Series is the B 590, as this sewing and embroidery machine
comes with the new high-end Embroidery Module M with Smart
Drive Technology (SDT). If you only want to embroider, the B 500,
Dossier review completion means every tracked facet received a disposition; it does not mean every machine fact or compatibility axis is known.
Supported public fields (8): machine type, model codes, oem program groups, part relationships, physical identity, preferred official name, presser foot, series
Unresolved fields (5): aliases, bobbin, lifecycle market, needle, product line
Review controls checked (2): source documents and publication/conflict handling are process receipts, not additional machine facts.
Review pass complete — not “all known.” Every tracked field has a recorded disposition; the unresolved fields above remain unknown.
