KARL MAYER’s yarn tensioners reliably guarantee a constant yarn tension over the entire length and width of the warp when yarn drawing-off during the warp preparation process – from the first metre to the last. They protect the yarn material and ensure a long service life. The yarn tensioners are also extremely wear-resistant, even in the face of the high loads exerted by yarns that can be fast running and even aggressive.
