Leigh Harris Engineering have been building quality fabric measuring machines for over thirty five years.
Leigh Harris have machines in operation in retail, wholesale and manufacturing businesses throughout Australia, New Zealand, The Pacific and South East Asia.
The purpose of the machine is to provide an inexpensive method of accurately measuring relatively short pieces of fabric up to 99 metres. In order for the measurement to be carried out accurately, the machine operates at a slow rate to ensure that the fabric winds on neatly.
The machine has only one "Driven Roller" which is covered in a soft "rubber" type material to provide grip for the fabric. The v-belt drive train between the electric motor and this driven roller is totally covered and protected.
Our range includes two standard (50mm rollers) types of machines both measuring fabric up to up to 1.8m wide. These are Lightweight and Upholstery (Upholstery being a stronger more robust design built to be able to handle heavier "take off" rolls of fabric.)
Our range also includes custom made Heavy Duty machines ( with 76mm rollers) in varying widths up to 3.2m wide.
On all machines we offer the option of high inspection rollers, fabric inspection lights and manually operated electric cutter in track.
