For one, correct tension control is commonly overlooked in composite material manufacturing. Even with the most modern equipment, if the starting tension at the creel is not controlled properly, then the final product may be constructed of fibers with varying tension. As a result, it will not fully utilize the strength of all fibers equally. This can degrade the mechanical properties of the final product. In other cases, we see applications where tension on fibers is so high that it causes filament damage. This can also degrade the quality of the final product.

Accurate and stable speed and length measurements ensure consistent output for your fiber or web material process. Inaccuracy in a processing line can result in various problems. If you produce less material than your equipment setting indicates, you’ll upset your customer; producing too much means a profit loss for your company. Many companies rely on the speed or length counters which are initially included on the equipment. But as time passes, how do you know that reading is accurate?  [Read More](https://info.izumiinternational.com/accurate-length-and-speed-measurement-in-fiber-processing) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://info.izumiinternational.com/accurate-length-and-speed-measurement-in-fiber-processing#comments-listing) Topics: [Carbon Fiber](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/carbon-fiber) [Previous](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/carbon-fiber/page/1) [All posts](https://info.izumiinternational.com/all) ### Subscribe to Email Updates ### Recent Posts ### Posts by Topic - [Industrial Automation (13)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/industrial-automation) - [Carbon Fiber (12)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/carbon-fiber) - [Robotunits (12)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/robotunits) - [Conveyors (9)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/conveyors) - [Fluid Dispensing (8)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/fluid-dispensing) - [Speed and Length Calibration (8)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/speed-and-length-calibration) - [Tension Control (7)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/tension-control) - [Winders (7)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/winders) - [Aluminum Extrusion (6)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/aluminum-extrusion) - [Carbon FIbre (6)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/carbon-fibre) - [Trade Shows and News (6)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/trade-shows-and-news) - [3D Printing (3)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/3d-printing) - [Musashi (3)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/musashi) - [Jet Dispenser (2)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/jet-dispenser) - [ISO 9001 (1)](https://info.izumiinternational.com/topic/iso-9001) See all [![IZUMI-logo-white](https://info.izumiinternational.com/hs-fs/hubfs/IZUMI-logo-white.png?width=300&height=113&name=IZUMI-logo-white.png "IZUMI-logo-white")](http://www.izumiinternational.com) ##### Address - [1 Pelham Davis Circle, Greenville, SC 29615](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Izumi+International+Inc/@34.8581,-82.2457647,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x885829962321e74b:0x28d934ed9be2f1d8!8m2!3d34.8579462!4d-82.2432925) ##### Phone Number - [864-288-8001](tel:8642888001) ##### Quick Links - [Composite Manufacturing](https://www.izumiinternational.com/composite-manufacturing/) - [Automation Products](https://www.izumiinternational.com/automation-products/) - [About Izumi International](https://www.izumiinternational.com/about/) - [Contact Us](https://www.izumiinternational.com/contact/) © 2022 Izumi International, Inc.
