Web tension radio transmitter FMS Force Measuring Systems AG

● RTM System
The FMS Radio Transmitted Tension Monitoring System (RTM) is designedto monitor tension of individual wires or cables in rotating applications. This system sends all the collected data via radio transmission and operates on battery power so that it does not require slip rings. The RTM System is a complete
tension monitoring package designed to easily retrofit onto older machines.
It is ideal for upgrading existing machinery to state-of-the-art tension
measuring technology.

● Functional description
All individual tension sensor (load cells)data is collected over a BUS system
mounted on the rotating portion of the machine. A dedicated unit on the bus system transmits the information over radio frequency to a PC nearthe machine. A Bluetooth® USB stick receives the tension data on the operator side. Values of all of the individual tension sensors can be monitored real-time on the screen.
They can also be viewed in a continuous rolling screen format and can be stored on a hard-disk. Power options: For machines without 24 V supply on the rotating portion of the machine, the RTM offers a power pack that keeps the whole system
running for one full shift utilizing battery power. The battery power pack voltage can be monitored on the screen and a warning is displayed when the battery power gets too low. The battery pack can then simply be exchanged for a fully charged one within seconds. A battery charger is included with the RTM System.
