The Eltex Tension Monitor (ETM) is an on-line device for industrial sewing machines that monitors thread tension and also acts as a thread break detector. It enables the operator to keep the thread tension within the specified tension range to ensure a quality seam. Common applications are automotive airbag and automotive upholstery sewing machines.

Our most recently developed tension monitor features a miniature sensing head. Thanks to the small head it is optimal for use on twin-needle machines since the sensing heads can be placed side-by-side without disturbing the thread path.

Another advantage of the small head is that it creates much less deflection of the thread path along the sewing machine’s head.
