Felt and Wire Tensioners
Belt Tension Controller DC 042, DC 242 (control panel)
for Felt and Wire Tensioners
Constant tension of the closed loop con-
veyors is decisive for troublefree produc-
tion processes in paper machines and
coaters. This is where felt and wire ten-
sioning systems make a cutting-edge
contribution.
Belt tension controller
Digital belt controllers already comprise a
control structure to activate the felt and
wire tensioners. Constant web tension
stands for uniform quality and for a long
working life of the felts and wires.
Sensor
Further, load cell sensors which are either
integrated into the felt and wire pass line
or into the felt and wire tensioners per-
manently detect the actual web tension
within the felts and wires.
Network
All functional modules of the Digital Con-
trol System DCS have a CAN bus inter-
face through which they are networked.
Thanks to this setup it is very easy to
adjust the E+L control system to the re-
quirements of new tasks. Interference im-
munity is very high and cable complexity
reduced to a minimum.
