Choose the Control Mode
Compare the characteristics of each category, then explore its models. Each photo shows one representative product.
Feedback-driven adjustment
Uses measured tension feedback to adjust output as operating conditions change, helping maintain the set tension during production.
Suitable for applications needing continuous correction. Available feedback, calculated open-loop and taper functions depend on the model.
Calculation-based adjustment
Calculates output from roll diameter, speed signals or material settings, following changes during unwinding and rewinding.
Suitable when the machine can provide the required calculation inputs. Setup and calibration are needed; tension is estimated rather than directly measured.
Operator-set output
Lets the operator set the output to a brake or clutch. Current, voltage or power adjustment is available depending on the model.
Suitable for straightforward applications with operator adjustment. Changes in roll diameter or process conditions may require the output to be readjusted.
Identify tension sensors, dancer signals, encoders or speed signals already available. Different models accept different input combinations.
Identify the brake, clutch, inverter or servo drive. Confirm its voltage, current and command input against the controller specification.
Share the unwind or rewind section, target tension range, speed and diameter changes, and whether taper control is needed.
