The buying decision for professional stringing machines is profoundly different than for personal models. One of the biggest concerns an individual will have when looking at a machine is likely to be the price.
Not the case with professional grade stringing machines. While price may be a factor in the buying decision, it is less of a factor than to an individual, because no matter what professional machine you buy, it's still going to cost several thousand dollars. These machines must allow you to string numerous racquets quickly to handle the demands of your customers and be reliable since down time costs you money. Durability is also important, since you want to get the most bang for your buck over the life of the machine.
Tecnifibre
The Tecnifibre TF 8000 is a high tech stringing machine that has much to offer. Its string measuring device allows you to accurately measure out the string you need for a job, thus reducing string waste and costs. It has a pre-stretch feature that allows you to stretch the string during tensioning and reduce tension loss. A keypad allows for accurate digital control of tension from 9.7 to 88 pounds with tension increase and decrease keys. The clutchable tension head lets you work with short strings. Five speed traction provides greater control and makes tightening knots easier. The TF 8000 also has proven experience as the official stringing machine for the French Open and several other tournaments.
If the TF 8000 is a little above your budget, the TF 7000 and TF 6000 stringing machines come at less of a cost. You won't have the string measuring device or pre-stretch and will have to settle for three traction speeds instead of five, but you will still get a superior professional grade machine in either model.
Babolat
Four years of research went into the the Babolat Sensor and the end result was an advanced ergonomic design, making it one of the best professional grade stringing machines on the market. It has a very user-friendly six point mounting system, dual action quick release string clamps and a quick-release tension head, allowing you to maintain accurate string tension throughout the stringing process. Tools are included with the unit. The round turntable with lock down, adjustable stand and tool bay are only a few of the many features that make the machine easier to use and a favorite among many professional stringers.
Prince
The Prince 6000 stringing machine shares many of the characteristics of the Babolat Sensor. It has a six point mounting system to lock the racquet frame securely, a tension head noted for its quiet operation and a superior clamping system. The model comes with tools that you can conveniently store in the tool tray and you can adjust the machine's height. The quality of the machine is backed by a 5 year limited warranty.
Today's professional grade stringing machines have evolved into advanced machines that take full advantage of digital technology and ergonomic design. As a result, professional stringers can string more racquets in less time than before.
