AdjustaTense

The AdjustaTense is a permanent magnet strand/yarn tension control.

Features:

• Holds consistent tension at any speed.
• Tension is applied by a magnetic field which will not deteriorate due to wear, time, tension, or heat.
• Tension is simple and repeatable by rotation of housing and tightening the lock screw at desired tension mark.
• Calibration of each AdjustaTense assures unit to unit tension output uniformity.
• Numbered or color coded tension markings enable fast and accurate tension adjustment +/- 5% full scale.
• Cushioned yarn carriers are part of the unique patented pulley system which gently grips the yarn.
• Yarn is transported around the pulley wheel and released without filament snagging, pinching, or scuffing.

Applications:

• Cabling

• Winder creels
• Warping creels
