Q: How accurate is this controller? 
A: Controller accuracy will depend on a number of factors. We will need to know the range of materials that you run, material type, width, thickness, etc., and then choose the correct sensors that supply the feedback signals to the controller. If the sensors, load cells, diameter sensors, torque sensors, etc. are chosen correctly, the controller will be very accurate. Accuracy is dependent on the quality of the application feedback, so with the information listed above, we can answer this question more accurately for your individual instance.
Q: How many tension zones can I control with this controller?
A: Our stand-alone controllers are capable of controlling one tension zone.
