Yarn Consumption & Yarn Length Meter

The Yarn Consumption & Yarn Length Meter precisely measures yarn feed from a textile machine feeder to a take-up device during one or more cylinder rotations. The LMI/LMC Yarn Consumption Meter offers accurate readings in centimeters for reliable performance. It allows users to compare yarn consumption between feeds and machines on circular and flat-bed knitting machines. The instrument also supports other textile processes that require precise yarn length measurement.
