The Hardy Instruments HI 3300 Tension Controller provides precision control of winding, unwinding, and intermediate zones in both web and strand processing applications.

The Hardy Tension Controller incorporates an automatic closed loop process to provide precision control over the tension in the web or strand. The controller incorporates either a single or dual sensor input to allow for tension measurements on either web rolls, or strand pulleys.

The controller utilizes a PID algorithm to control tension in unwind, rewind or intermediate zones. The standard output from the Tension Controller is 0-10V / 4-20 ma, which can be directed to a brake or a drive. Hardy also provides pneumatic systems to convert the analog output to a pneumatic signal for air- brake operation.

Because the actual product tension is measured, this type of precision control eliminates common process problems found in web and strand processes including feathering, breakage, telescoping, wrinkling, and blocking.
