Symptoms

The packaging machine reports a material web tension anomaly. The packaging material tension is outside the acceptable range.

Possible Causes

  • Tension dancer or load cell out of calibration
  • Brake or clutch on the unwind stand slipping
  • Material roll diameter variation affecting tension

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Step 1: Verify the tension sensor calibration
    Sensor reads accurately against a reference
  2. Step 2: Inspect the brake or clutch operation on the unwind
    Brake/clutch holds tension consistently
  3. Step 3: Adjust tension parameters for the current roll diameter
    Tension is maintained at the setpoint

How to Reset

To reset: Adjust the web tension, then clear the alarm from the HMI.
