We are a web tension control solution provider and some of your clients are asking about tension control for the tows feeding your applicator “heads”. One client says he needs up to 100N of tension but I am trying to confirm if that is a valid number. Do you have any feedback on this? Do you know of a sensible range of tensions that should be expected for tow applications?

Thank you,
