    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stringing_machine

    The tension mechanism will ensure the string tension remains correct at all times, making stringing more consistent and accurate, as string stretching is taking into account. Lock out electronic stringing machines are similar to crank machines as they will pull to the desired tension but no longer monitor any reduction in tension over time.

    Badminton strings for racquets are thin, high-performing strings with thicknesses ranging from about 0.62 to 0.73 mm. Thicker strings are more durable, but many players prefer the feel of thinner strings. String tension is normally in the range of 80 to 160 N (18 to 36 lbf). Recreational players generally string at lower tensions than ...

  9. Stretched tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stretched_tuning

    In an ideal plain string, vibration over half the string's length will be twice as fast as its fundamental vibration, vibration over a third will be three times as fast, and so on. In this kind of string, the only force acting to return any part of it to its resting position is the tension between the string's ends.
