Load Cells & Tension Readouts

Products Include:

• MAGPOWR TS Load Cells

  These rugged load cells are extremely accurate devices used to measure tension in any unwind, rewind or intermediate web processing application. The unique low profile design minimizes space requirements inside the machine frames, thus maximizing the potential for web width. TS load cells are designed with mechanical overload stops in both force directions to eliminate sensor damage and the need to recalibrate even after extreme overloads, while also offering the flexibility of a variety of mounting styles and coupling options.
• MAGPOWR Global Load Cells

  Two GTS Load Cells should be used, one for each side of the sensing roll, thereby accurately measuring the total web tension force acting on the roll, independent of web width or location. The flexible cable connector eliminates the need for left and right models, as each GTS load cell can be mounted on either side of the machine.
• MAGPOWR CL Cantilevered Load Cells

  MAGPOWR’s CL Cantilever Load Cells are designed to support cantilevered idler rolls in processing machines that have just one side frame. They then accurately measure and control tension in a narrow moving web and are typically used on paper, film, foil, wire, fiber, fabrics or any materials used in the label, tag, tape, printing or converting industry.
• MAGPOWR TSU Under Pillow Block Load Cells

  Ruggedly constructed to stand up to mill duty and with built-in mechanical overload stops in both force directions, MAGPOWR’s TSU Under Pillow Block Load Cells can be bolted under your present roll support bearings and they will accurately measure the tension forces on the machine sensing the rol
• MAGPOWR Low Tension Load Cells

  Lightweight single strand applications including wire, fiber optics and filament textiles face the requirements of tension measurement. For various reasons, lighter, thinner, finer materials are now demanded, and manufacturers require tension controls that can help facilitate those demands.
• MAGPOWR Load Cell Amplifiers

  When performance matters, the TSA and LCA Load Cell Amplifiers from MAGPOWR are head and shoulders above the competition, especially in the areas of drift and linear performance. These load cell amplifiers can measure tension in any moving web, wire, or strand.
• MAGPOWR Intrinsically Safe Load Cell Amplifier

  Safety is the key to any operation, that’s why the MAGPOWR IS-2 Intrinsically Safe Load Cell Amplifier is so valuable and important. The Model IS-2 amplifier provides intrinsically safe circuitry for UL Listed MAGPOWR load cells.
• MAGPOWR Digital Tension Readout

  Is your operation running with the right amount of tension? How do you know? The only way to be sure is with a precise tension readout, and in today’s digital world, MAGPOWR’s DTR Digital Tension Readout is ideal.
• MAGPOWR Analog Tension Readout

  MAGPOWR’s TR-5 Tension Readout is accurate and versatile, as it can be used on any non-driven idler roll or at any position where the wrap angle of the web or strand does not change. Each load cell contains four foil type strain gages bonded to a sensing beam.
• MAGPOWR Digital Tension Meter

  A low-cost way to monitor tension output, the Digital Tension Meter (DTM) is perfect for applications where access to tension control parameters is not required. Operators can mount a control away from the web to get feedback on current web tension via a backlit display and illuminated digits.
• UL and CE Approved

  We value your safety and want to help you maintain process lines of the highest standards. That's why we go the extra step to ensure that many of our products are UL approved and CE certified.
