All NEW TSC System
ICE Europe


A Game Changer in Tension Control
The all new Torque Sensing Control System (TSC)

  • Have a machine that cannot accommodate load cells or retrofits due to space limitations, costs, etc?
  • Have no defined or a changing web path, or have the web traveling directly from the unwind roll into processing?
  • Have a web that cannot be contacted after unwind by rollers or requires minimal roller contact (ex: coating, film, foil ,etc applications)?
  • Have multiple unwind stands that each require cost effective, simple control, and a simple web path (ex:
    sheeters)?
  • Have an existing open loop system and want to improve consistency and quality?
  • Have a PLC or similar system and want to control torque with minimal modification and effort?

If you experience any of these within your application then the new TSC System can deliver the accuracy, consistency and quality tension control you require to expand your production capabilities.

For more on how the TSC System works, benefits, or to learn more about how the TSC can easily integrate into your machine please…
