Focus on slitter-rewinders – do you know the winding tension of all of your single rolls?

30.03.2021 The segFORCE measuring roller from FMS Force Measuring Systems AG (Oberglatt, Switzerland) offers producers and machinery suppliers in the converting industry the possibility to precisely measure the web tension of individual slit webs.

Scheme of two measuring rollers in a slitter-rewinder.

Especially with very thin and stretchable materials and in compact machines, this places the highest demands on the technology.

Deviations in tension become visible

The scheme above shows two measuring rollers in a slitter-rewinder. The offset of the individual segments from one measuring roll to the other is clearly visible. Minimal deviations in tension between the individual web sections quickly become visible.

The advantages of the FMS-segFORCE measuring rollers at a glance:

- Tension monitoring of each individual web section

- Highest flexibility in terms of number of segments, widths and position

- Quick detection of faulty winding or differential friction shafts

- Clear display of different tension values of the individual webs

- Tension monitoring of up to 40 individual web sections

- Fast quality assessment of the delivered parent roll
