Tension control is required in a wide variety of processes, from simple winding and unwinding applications to more complex multi-zone systems. High closed-loop control quality is essential for the quality of the product produced. With mapp Web Handling, B&R offers a solution that makes it easy to implement closed-loop tension control solutions and adapt them to the respective process.
