More economic Web Tension Measurement system
Thermo Nobel announce a new Web Tension Unit, the TU-2, an addition to their range of Shear Force Load cell based Web Tension Measurement systems.
The material can for example be cable, paper, plastic, film, foil, tape, wire, labels or filaments.
Precision accuracy and long term reliability are assured through the LTT differential bending beam design and the installation of strain gauges connected into a full Wheatstone bridge configuration.
Each unit is temperature compensated and factory calibrated to permit on-site push-button calibration and eliminate the need for on-site test weights.
Accurate tension signals are provided when small wrap angles, high roll weight-to-tension force ratios, and wide ranges of operating tension are used.
This means that this low-tension transducer is not limited by difficult applications.
FM approved for intrinsically safe use the LTT is compact in size and with high overload capability.
It is available with a roller for narrow webs of up to four inches wide or a standard pulley can be used for wire/filament applications.
Its design also allows for the installation of customer-supplied rollers or pulleys. Request a free brochure from Vishay Nobel ...
