Abstract
A method of controlling the internal tension of a web roll, in particular a paper web roll during winding of the roll in a winder having two, individually driven supporting rollers. The rotational speeds of the supporting rollers or their drive members are measured, whereby the speed signals are fed to control means for controlling the rotational speeds of the supporting rollers to maintain a desired speed difference therebetween for controlling the web tension wound into the roll.
Claims5
A method of controlling the web tension of a web roll, in particular a paper web roll, being wound in a winder including two individually driven web roll supporting rollers, comprising:
- deriving separate signals representative of the speed of rotation of each supporting roller:
- controlling the speed or rotation of each driven supporting roller, in dependence on the difference between the said signals, thereby to control the said web tension of the web roll;
- including measuring the number of wound turns and the wound web length of the web of a measuring period, the resulting measurement signals being supplied with information about the surface weight of the web to a device for computing a density signal for the portion of the web roll formed during the measuring period, the density signal being used as a superordinate control signal for controlling the web tension of the web roll.
