• Actual web tension display for the operators benefit
• Exact tension set point, for accurate setting
• Soft start ( to provide smooth operation)
  
  The system comprised two pneumatic "load cells". these are mounted onto a fixed shaft web path roller, and provide an air pressure signal accurately proportional to the web tension.
