INTRODUCTION
The MAGPOWR TLC-B Load Cells are extremely accurate devices
used to measure tension in any unwind, rewind, or intermediate
web processing application.
The load cells are to be mounted in a machine supporting an
idler roll in a part of the machine where measurement of web
tension is desired.
The low-profile design minimizes space requirements for the
load cells inside the machine frames, thus maximizing the
potential for web width. Additionally, the load cells can be
mounted on the outside of the machine frame, eliminating any
machine space dedicated to the load cells on the web side.
TLC-B Load Cells also offer the flexibility of mounting on top of
frames, using additional brackets and other accessories.
MAGPOWR TLC-B Load Cells are ruggedly constructed from steel
with mechanical overload stops in both force directions to
eliminate load cell damage and the need to recalibrate even after
extreme overloads.
A full Wheatstone bridge arrangement of four foil strain gages is
used in each load cell for the most accurate means of measuring
web tension with very low temperature drift. In addition, all load
cells incorporate a dual beam construction design to ensure
linear output under all loading conditions.
TLC-B Load Cells can be mounted to the machine frame directly
on a vertical surface or horizontally using pillow block brackets
(MAGPOWR Part No. TLCB-PBK).
TLC-B Load Cells couple to the customer's idler roll journals
using internal self-aligning bearings supplied by the customer or
purchased from MAGPOWR as an accessory (Part No. 30A23-7).
