Web tension measurement and control applications impact numerous industries; pulp and paper, converting, roofing, mining, conveying, and strip mills. Tension classifications are typically divided into two categories, high (500 pounds and above) and low (up to 500 pounds). High-tension applications satisfy paper, roofing, and conveying machine requirements with wide webs and heavy rolls. Low-tension installations apply to converting equipment where thin film, filament, wire, cable, thread, and tape products are produced.
