• Output brakes that optimise yarn tension throughout the weft insertion process,
ensuring the correct level required for both loom performance and fabric quality.
• Input brakes for ensured weft accumulator functionality, and to help equalize yarn
tension variations between different bobbins.
• Weft detectors that can recognize yarn defects, for example knots, and prevent
these defects from entering the fabric.
• Precise lubrication devices to increase the quality and performance of yarns that
may benefit from the application of lubricants.
• A range of the most technologically advanced speciality devices for the most
demanding of applications.
• Customized solutions for the most challenging yarns to weave.
In this brochure we would like to share our expertise with recommendations for many
different woven applications to help create perfect fabric.

UNI-BRAKE MODELS
There are different models of the Uni-Brake available. Each one is
designed to help our customers achieve perfect fabric.
The Uni-Brake is design and patent protected.

USER FRIENDLY
Simple “lever operation” for thread-up and cleaning, coupled with
an improved regular cleaning schedule due to the flexible long
tension leafs, makes the Uni-brake extremely user-friendly.

PERFORMANCE PERFORMANCE
The combination of the long braking surface and the flexible
tension leafs of the Uni-brake, means knots and yarn irregularities

Uni-Brake
are handled far more effectively than was previously possible,
resulting in reduced yarn stress caused by tension peaks.
The Uni-brake is more universal than other tensioners thanks
to its compact design and diverse tension range, requiring less
Traditional Leaf Brake space to give better performance compared to traditional leaf
tensioners. For example, the new “Single” Uni-brake applies
tension equivalent to a traditional Double “Four-leaf” Tensioner,
making the Uni-brake extremely versatile.
