No, the Necchi Supernova sewing machine was not designed or marketed as an industrial sewing machine. It was designed for home use. However, it is significantly sturdier than some modern machines containing plastic parts, and it will sew better due to being designed better.

NEEDLE
You will need a double-needle sewing machine to sew two lines at once. Some basic sewing machines have the capability to do double-needle sewing, but most do not. Most double-needle sewing machines are commercial or industrial grade and are quite expensive ($600-$2,000+). For some examples of double-needle sewing machines, click the 'related links' below.

I don't know how to date a specific Necchi machine but the Nova BU was made in the 1950's as far as the couple that I have owned. At least that's what the dates in the manuals were.
