Hi All.

I am doing a project involving pulling 2km of string using a motor, however, the torque applied is going to vary, therefore the tension of the string before winding into the motor varies (effect of angle and diameter of wheel). Is there meter/machine out there that can do variable (tension/time) tension measuring?
