In continuous web and wire
processes, controlling the tension in the moving web is often critical in
producing a quality product. In printing, coating, laminating, slitting,
extruding, and other converting processes baggy edges, slack web, or tight web
all create an undesirable product. Web tension transducers (load cells) are
mounted to tension rollers in critical sections of the line to measure the
amount of web tension. This measurement is then utilized by other devices such
as controllers, drives, brakes, and clutches to control the tension. Good
control relies on good measurement, and proper selection and application of the
tension transducer (load cell) is necessary to insure superior web tension
control.

The CMC® Cleveland-Kidder® Slim Cell
Transducer (load cell) measures and monitors precise tension on web
process or wire machinery that utilizes either rotating shafts or dead
shaft rollers. It is especially beneficial in load cell applications where
space is tight, web tensions are typically low, and the environment is
demanding. With a low profile design, the Slim Cell reduces the
side-frame-to-side-frame width requirements of the machine. With a
maintenance-free solid lubricant bearing with very low friction, it is
ideal for low tension applications, extending usable tension ranges of web
machinery by measuring both low and high tensions. |

The CMC® Cleveland-Kidder® UPB Washdown-Duty
LC measures and monitors precise tension on web process or wire machinery.
With a completely sealed design (corrosion resisting and chemical
resisting), this under-pillow-block style load cell is an ideal solution
for demanding industrial environments, such as in the production of paper,
steel, textiles, roofing shingles, linoleum, rubber, foil, and food
products. The UPB Washdown-Duty LC is designed for use with pillow block
bearings and rotating shaft installations. It has a compact low-profile
block design that can be mounted at any angle and used for retrofit or for
new machinery. |
