CB block style load cells provide an ideal solution for detecting high laminate tension in unwinding, rewinding, or intermediate processes. Engineered for foot-mounted installation, these robust load cells maintain precision and durability in challenging environments with heavy mechanical loads, vibrations, and potential overloads, ensuring reliable performance over time. Depending on the required load capacity, CB load cells are constructed from either aluminum or steel, balancing superior strength and long-lasting resilience. The built-in foot-mounted bearing support simplifies installation and maintenance, reducing downtime and overall operational costs. While perfectly suited for paper calenders and rolling mills, they also excel in applications where the laminate needs careful handling, offering consistently accurate laminate tension detection. Covering load ranges from 150 N to 30.000 N, CB load cells are available in various models to meet a wide range of applications. When integrated into a web tension control circuit, the CB series detect real-time laminate tension on the roller, which is then amplified and relayed to a tension controller. The controller processes these signals, adjusting brake torque as needed to enhance process efficiency and minimize material waste. Designed to optimize productivity and maintain product quality, CB block style load cells deliver precise web tension control in some of the most demanding industrial setups. Their reliable construction and versatile design make them an excellent choice for achieving accurate tension measurement in critical applications, improving process stability and overall output.
