Summary

Web Tension Control Overview

What is Web Tension Control? Web tension control improves uniformity in coating applications and material lamination while decreasing the incidence of rewind defects such as crushed cores, starred rolls, edge curl and telescoped rolls. When web tension is under control it can enable processes to run at higher speeds while reducing scrap, delivering a rapid return on investment that boosts producers’ long term profitability.
