Pressductor PillowBlock load cells 

Introduction

ABB’s Pressductor® PillowBlock load cells are sensitive and accurate yet rugged, reliable and compact. The performace of the Pressductor PillowBlock load cells is unsurpassed for paper mill applications characterized by heavy rolls, high speeds and severe conditions – in some instances they are the only viable option. They can withstand high overloads and vibrations, and operate over a wide range of tensions. 

The well-proven Pressductor load cells combined with the tension electronics, offer an easy-to-use/ user-friendly web tension measurement system with superior long term performance leading to higher productivity and product quality and higher profit for the web producer.

Increased process uptime 

In a web process running continuously, every minute of production time is precious. Even so, no production line runs without downtime. With Pressductor PillowBlock load cells the risk of web breaks can be reduced to a minimum, thus leaving as much time as possible for real production.

Thanks to a strong and stable signal deriving from the Pillow-Block load cells, the upcoming web breaks are kept to an absolute minimum level.

Tighter product tolerances

The ability to produce web to tighter tolerances minimizes the costs associated with nonconforming web. It also increases the web producer’s accessible market to include products with tighter tolerance requirements.

Pressductor PillowBlock load cells 

Ideal for paper and converting industry

Designers appreciate: • Remarkably high spring constant • Wide measurement range • High reliability

Operators value a load cell with: • No drift • No need for recalibration • No failures • High reliability

Measurement essentials 

Keeping the tension constant in web processes is essential for high product quality and productivity. Continuously measuring the tension is an obvious prerequisite for tension control. Drives and operator instruments need quick and accurate input to regulate tension levels and monitor machine performance
