The TI17C and TI18C tension indicators have had their internal components upgraded and ruggedized over previous generations of tension measurement electronics. Thorough testing shows that they deliver exceptional output stability, accuracy and signal integrity. (read more)

The compact WebHandler™ 3 Tension Controller from Dover Flexo.

This Tension Controller combines automated closed-loop process tension control with an easy-to-use keypad interface. The WebHandler™ 3 maintains a pre-selected tension set point on a web machine or press by measuring web tension from a tension transducer. (read more)

The THN (thin) transducer from Dover Flexo is a strain-gauge sensing device used for measuring tension in web processes. Based on the design for the company's popular Model C tension transducers, but thinner, at only 2.4 inches wide, THN transducers work in pair and are mounted onto opposite ends of an idler roll shaft (dead-shaft or live-shaft).

New Brake Meets High-Torque Challenge - The 3000 series Dual Disc brake was designed to meet heavy industrial demand, particularly from the paper industry, and has been added to DFE's range of brake products as the largest brake the company manufactures. (read more)

For monitoring tension in any zone on converting and printing web machinery, Dover Flexo Electronics, Inc. introduces the TI17B True Tension™ Indicator. The TI17B is a 3 x 5 inch transducer amplifier card packaged in one of three convenient compact configurations for mounting in a cabinet or control panel. (read more)

TensionManager™ Control Module, a DlN-rail mountable digital tension controller supported by a family of option modules. The modular concept of the TensionManager™ product line was developed to reduce auxiliary equipment costs for OEMs and System Integrators who need to incorporate a stealthy, low-cost tension controller into a web press or machine design. (read more)

THN is a strain-gauge tension-measuring device used in pairs that mount opposed in a machine web path. Each end of an idler roll shaft fits easily and securely into a THN transducer coupling to create a tension-sensing idler roll. (read more)

The compact signal amplifier takes the trouble out of interfacing the 0-to-500 mV tension signal from sensors mounted in a machine's web path to a drive, PLC or other control device which operates on a 0-to-10 VDC input. (read more)

Tension controls manufacturer Dover Flexo Electronics, Inc. announces the release of the 6/1 Series dual disc brake, the smallest pneumatic brake in a range of five sizes. (read more)

Turret Rewind Splice & Tension Control -

For manufacturers using a continuous web process which employs either an electric clutch or an AC/DC motor drive on a turret rewind station, this multi-function control unit automates a flying splice sequence while maintaining a preset tension setting. (read more)

Dover Flexo Electronics, Inc. (DFE) has just released two new products: the MAC MultiAmplifier Card and the IMUX Tension Multiplexer, which combined allow multi-point tension monitoring at a considerably lower cost than using multiple single-channel indicators to perform the same task. (read more)

The new VNW transducer from Dover Flexo Electronics (DFE) is a compact tension-sensing device for measuring process tension in narrow web or ribbon (up to six inches wide) or filament. Employing a design that combines the robust beam housing of DFE's popular shaft-end transducers with a choice of mounting styles and wheel options from RFA-style cantilevered transducers.

(ROCHESTER, NH, USA--September 13, 2001) The TrueTension™ TI-14 Indicator from Dover Flexo Electronics (DEE) is a low-cost, industrial measurement device for monitoring tension or continuous process or winding machinery. The compact TI-14 amplifies the tension signal from a pair of tension transducers in the web path and reads out actual tension on a large analog (or digital) tension display. (read more)

(ROCHESTER, NH, USA—September20, 2001) Dover Flexo Electronics, Inc. (DEE) announces the release of the NWI Narrow Web Tension Transducer, a cantilevered, bearing-mounted idler roller with two built-in tension sensing elements. The NWI transducer is offered with an optional digital LED tension display to read out tension at the roll end. (read more)

Most industrial devices that interface and amplify the milliamp level signals put out by strain-gauge tension transducers are single channel, allowing for tension and display output from a single sensor point only. Dover Flexo Electronics, Inc. announces the release of the MAC MultiAmplifier Card, an electronic device for amplifying the signals from up to eight sets of tension transducers. (read more)

Dover Flexo Electronics, Inc. (DFE) has released a new tension transducer, called SUPB, with extra-robust performance characteristics to replace the company's standard UPBV-style transducers in high load (800 to 5,000 lb) web applications. The SUPB transducer measures process web tension accurately in industrial winding and converting applications. (read more)

Dover Flexo Electronics, Inc. offers printers and converters RFA tension transducers, sensing devices for measuring process tension on very narrow web (six inches and under), ribbon, filament, or wire. (read more)

The FireGuard™ measures web process tension while offering peace of mind against explosion to converters, printers, coalers and laminators whose machines and operators may be exposed to flammable solvent vapor. (read more)

Tension controls manufacturer Dover Flexo Electronics, Inc. introduces the 60 Series dual disk brake, the smallest pneumatic brake in a range of six sizes. The 60 Series brake, named for its six-inch diameter disks, works in high- and low-speed unwind applications in a torque range from 1 lbs-inch up to 1,000 lbs-inches. (read more)
