Overview
The MK1505 is a foil strain-gauge tension sensor with a lightweight aluminium-alloy body, rated for -20 to +80 degC service. It continuously monitors web tension, the pulling force on material in motion or at rest, and converts the mechanical strain into a stable, precise electrical signal, making it a reliable element for closed-loop tension control on automated production lines.
Key Features
- Foil strain-gauge design for stable tension measurement
- Lightweight aluminium-alloy body, rated -20 to +80 degC
- Real-time tension feedback for closed-loop control
- Helps prevent web breakage, deformation and slack
- High accuracy (±0.3%F.S) for precise measurement
- Aluminum alloy elastic element for durability and corrosion resistance
Applications
Applied to battery winding and coating machines, textile spinning, weaving and finishing lines, gravure printing, bag-making and labelling equipment, paper and film winding, and wire, cable and extrusion machinery.
