Frequently Asked Questions- What is a Cantilever Tension Load Cell? A force measurement device used to monitor web tension in slitting, rewinding, printing, coating and converting machinery.
- How does a Cantilever Tension Load Cell work? The load cell measures force applied to a guide roller and converts it into an electrical signal that a tension controller uses to maintain stable web tension.
- Difference vs Through-shaft Tension Sensor? A cantilever load cell is flange-mounted with a cantilever structure; a through-shaft tension sensor is installed through the roller shaft. Both provide accurate measurement but suit different machine designs.
- Is the load cell suitable for high-speed production lines? Yes. The sensor provides fast response, high accuracy and excellent stability suitable for high-speed web processing equipment.
