Tensio+: a fabric tension meter for the paper industry

Abstract

Paper is produced in vast quantities in paper mills. The properties of the produced paper critically depend on the parameters of the mill, especially the properties of the fabric belt transporting the fibre-water mixture that is converted into paper through the mill. The belt properties are currently monitored by indirect methods and imprecise measurement devices. The company Feltest Equipment BV aims to improve this situation by developing measurement equipment to monitor the belt properties in a direct fashion
