Product OverviewThe XWDGM Pillow Block Tension Transducer is a high-precision web tension measurement device engineered for slitting, rewinding, printing, coating, laminating, flexible packaging, paper converting, textile processing and lithium battery electrode coating lines. Designed with advanced strain gauge sensing technology and a robust pillow block structure, this tension transducer delivers reliable and accurate tension feedback for demanding industrial web handling applications.
How it worksThe transducer continuously measures force applied to guide rollers and converts mechanical force into precise electrical signals. These signals are transmitted to tension controllers to enable automatic closed-loop regulation of brakes, clutches and drive systems for constant web tension during production.
