Strip tension measurement Analysis and Measurement

Strip tension transducer

VBZ, HBZ, PFN, PFP, VBZ-P, BME

The tension in the strip (steel, paper, etc.) is measured by means of force measurements at the roller bearings.

Main cell models :

  • VBZ, VBZ-T, VBZ-P - Vertical component measuring cell
    HBZ - Horizontal component measuring cell
    HVBZ - Combined horizontal and vertical force measurement cell
    BME - Cell for measuring frame
    CADRE - Measuring frame with BME cells, mainly for measuring kiln rollers, where the axial force of the roller is significant
    PFN, PFP - Cell for measuring vertical and horizontal components at high loads (up to 15 times the nominal load)

Modular Digital Measuring Amplifier

BrandTronic DMM

Modularly structured, processor-based, multi-channel hybrid digital measurement system for transducers in strain gauge technology.

Configurable in hardware and software.

Our core competencies are measurement and control of belt tension.

Our measurement systems can also be installed in existing systems.

Modular Digital Measuring Amplifier

DCX

Multifunction controller for control and calculation tasks.

Multifunction controllers can be used for voltage control or other control or correction tasks. Their key features include

  • Specification of measurement range
  • Voltage control
  • Angle correction
  • Multi-channel amplifier
  • Modular measurement amplifier
  • Multifunction digital controller

Digital Measuring Amplifier

DMA3

The Digital DMA amplifier is designed for use with resistive bridge transducers and special strip voltage cells.

It can be mounted on a DIN rail or directly on a cabinet front panel (front panel mounting is available as an option).

In particular, the DMA makes commissioning and maintenance much simpler:

  •     Pre-set amplification (selectable from MENU)
  •     Plug-in terminal blocks designed for pre-wiring
  •     Zero and push-button settings
  •     Actual force display (as a percentage of nominal force or actual value)

Strip tension measurement and control is our core competence. The range includes all common types of load cells for measuring strip tension in the steel and paper industries.

Our measurement systems can also be installed on existing systems.

Continuous measurement of the tension in a strip during production and finishing; processing of measurement signals and transmission of data to the process.
