Web Tensioner Load Cell

Web Tensioner Load Cell

Monad electronics combines precision strain gauge force transducers with dead shaft mounting options to produce the highest accuracy for direct on line sensing of tension in moving paper, films, foils, wires and cables.

Monad transducers, developed for web tension applications, incorporate a differential bending beam design with a full Wheatstone Bridge strain gage configuration.

This design provides stable, accurate, and repeatable measurement over a wide range of operating tensions while virtually eliminating temperature drift. All capacities are equipped with mechanical overload protection. Available with a mounting configuration for dead shaft applications (with horizontal or vertical support surfaces).

Monad Load Cell for Web Tension measure web tension forces applied across a roll, using integral horizontal and vertical axis sensors. This innovative and exclusive two-dimensional approach to web tension force measurement enables accurate determination of the true resultant force, as well as the applied angle. Not only does this permit installation and measurement at any mounting angle or roll orientation, it also combines to form an expert diagnostics system that produces the highest level of web tension measurement confidence available today. The Load cell is machined from a high strength corrosion resistant stainless steel to yield a low profile single piece construction that incorporates tubular sensing sections at each end.
