Tension Control Q & A
How many brakes does my unwind need when utilizing core chucks?
Many machines that use core chucks (shaftless unwinds) utilize two brakes. This insures that equal torque will be applied to both ends of the rolls. By not using dual brakes, depending on the type of core chucks (pneumatic, mechanical, or just the cone shaped devices) you could run the risk of slipping on the core.
However, some OEM machines are actually designed to utilize only one brake with the core chucks. If your machine was originally designed in this capacity and you have the original core chucks, one brake should be sufficient.
As always, your best option is to have a detailed discussion with your Montalvo Applications Specialists to review all the variables of your application for the best recommendations.
