What are the families of stringing machines?

Manual Stringing Machines

A weight is placed on the machine's lever. To achieve a certain tension, the weight is moved to a specific location on the lever (the reading is taken from the left of the counterweight). The string is attached to a clamp at the base of the lever. The lever is then tilted to pull the string. To reach the correct tension, the lever must be in a horizontal position.

For a number of reasons, manual stringing machines are not recommended for professional use. The most significant problem is that the exact tension is only achieved when the resting weight is in a horizontal position. However, manual stringing machines are perfect for personal use and will quickly pay for themselves.

Electronic Stringing Machines

An electronic stringing machine is a machine that relies on an electric motor. The electric motor applies tension until the string is stretched to the reference tension, then you must lock the string with the clamp and pull the trigger.

The success of electronic stringing machines comes from the fact that they are both easy to use and precise.
