ADVANCED KNITTING TECHNOLOGY The MLT WESCO is an electronic tester for measuring the speed of running yarn. It uses the speed measurement to calculate yarn length. The meter also displays the Normal, Average and Peak values for yarn tension. The MLT WESCO also displays the machine speed. All test values are shown on an easy to read back-lit LCD display. This battery-powered, hand-held tester is easy to use and is ready for immediate use. ADVANTAGES ■ A single unit to measure the yarn consumption, yarn speed and yarn tension of any knitting system ■ The MLT WESCO makes it easy to comply with fabric specifications and repeat these later, even on different machines ■ Shorter setup times because existing items can be called up and repeated ■ Uniform stitch length ensures a uniform fabric structure ■ Yarn length is easy to calculate accurately
