CHECK•LINE LM Digital Consumption Meters accurately measure the amount of
yarn being fed from a textile machine feeder to a take-up device during one or more
cycles or rotations of the machine cylinder.

LM units are ideal for comparing yarn consumption from feed to feed and machine
to machine on circular and flat bed knitting machines, and for other textile processes
where yarn length is to be accurately measured.
