S4 Controller (Surface Mount)
S4 (panel mount)
Set it and Forget it
The Easiest Controller to Install
Unwind or Rewind Tension Control
Compatible with both Strain Gauge and Foil Gauge Load Cells
Available as a Panel or Surface Mount
Compatible with Pneumatic or Electric Brakes
Soft Start: Minimizes tension upsets during start up
Anti-Coast: Prevents web tension from dropping during rapid deceleration
Splice: Maintains tension on materials during flying splice, resulting in successful splices without tension changes
Taper: Gradually reduces tension on your material as your roll builds on the rewind, eliminating telescoping, starred rolls, or crushed cores
Inertia Compensation: Minimizes tension variation during start and stop
Web Break Detection: Programmable alarms or stop machine should a break occur, reducing waste and productivity loss
Remote Setpoint: Remotely input or adjust tension setpoint
Remotely Control Tension On/Off
Select-able 110/220V or 24V Models Available
Material Recall Memory
Store up to 15 different settings for the materials you run for fast and easy recall to give your machine extreme flexibility
Easy Operation
Tension is automatically controlled with only a few key button presses making it the easiest controller in the industry to operate with minimal operator interaction.
Enhanced Productivity From Shift to Shift
Standardized settings combined with stored material tensions gets your application running quicker, and eliminates variations in productivity from shift to shift.
Set It & Forget It Technology
With a few simple button presses your machine operates at maximum efficiency without constant monitoring.
Progressive Gain Technology
Montalvo’s advanced technology ensures uniform control regardless of roll diameter through advanced algorithms & proven technology.
Analog Meter
The S4 can be combined with the M4 Analog Tension Meter to add analog tension display when needed.
