DATA SHEET FMS Tension Control / Force Sensors RMGZ9-Series Freely configurable cantilever force measuring roller • For a wide range of applications Nominal forces from 50 to 1'000 N (11 to 220 lbf.) • Robust and durable Overload protection up to 10-times nominal force, measuring body from high strength aluminum • Precise performance even at low tension values Measuring range 30:1 Accuracy class ±0.5% RMGZ9-Series The force measuring rollers of the RMGZ9-Series combine force sensor and roller. The RMGZ9-Series design, incorporating dual bending beams, eliminates the load-specific influences of torque and ensures accurate measurement at any position on the roller while maintaining the parallel position of the material and eliminating angular deflection. The movement of the bending beams is detected by a set of strain gages arranged in a full bridge circuit. The resulting electrical signal, which is proportional to the applied force, is then amplified for use in monitoring or controlling web tension. With the superior performance of the RMGZ9-Se-ries, accurate tension readings are obtained even with low web wrap angles and low material tension. Functional description The RMGZ9-Series force measuring rollers are designed as self-contained cantilever mount sensors that minimise machine space requirements in continuous material processing applications. They can be mounted horizontally or vertically directly or by means of an optionally available flange to the machine frame. Force measuring rollers of the RMGZ9-Se-ries are available with a huge variety of roller materials and surface finishing, as well as a wide range of different dimensions.
