YLM
Yarn Length Meter

In the textile sector, yarn control instruments are essential to guarantee product quality and obtain a uniform and high-quality knit. By precisely controlling various parameters such as yarn length and tension, it is possible to produce a knit with specific resistance and surface weight. Regardless of the type of processing - whether it be standard or elastic yarns - the YLM - Yarn Length Meter allows for the determination of every parameter in a fast, simple, and reliable manner. This system, originally developed by the company Barth-Tex, a leader in the sector, is specifically designed for application in circular knitting. Its simplicity of use makes it a versatile tool, ideal for both large-diameter circular machines and hosiery machines. As of 2024, following the acquisition, the production of YLM instruments has been entirely moved to Italy, in our laboratories at our headquarters. The new line of YLM instruments, not only Made in Italy, but also CE - UKCA certified, maintains and ensures high quality standards.
