Rock Steady Tension Control  

Expect nothing less than steady tension of paper, film, foil or fabric -- for any type of continuous web application -- with Nexen's RSTC1000 Tension Controller. This closed loop, load cell-based tension device controls the torque output of brakes, clutches and AC/DC drives.

The RSTC1000 uses an adaptive control algorithm to adjust internal gain values, resulting in a simple system with the inherent robustness of more complicated systems that rely on many external sensors and signals. 

The RSTC1000 can be DIN rack mounted or panel mounted inside a machine control cabinet alongside other controllers. Using Modbus RTU communication protocol, the RSTC1000 can communicate with HMIs and PLCs. For machines without HMI, the RSTC Operator Panel (ROP) is available and can be installed in a convenient location for the operator.

Features include:

• Tune once, then forget
• Smart Splicing — splice different size rolls without adjustment
• RSTC1000 controls the torque output of brakes, clutches, and AC/DC drives
• RSTC utilizes an adaptive control algorithm
• The ROP adjusts job parameters only, so operators cannot modify controller
   setup or tuning parameters

• Each control on the ROP has only one function, simplifying operator training
   and use
• ROP can be mounted anywhere on the machine
• RSTC1000 and ROP are CE compliant
