An process for controlling the force exerted on a moving web of material, including a batten roller having an adjustable drive and a fixing roller having a pressure sensor. An amplifier is coupled between the pressure sensor and the adjustable drive. A web pulling device pulls the web in a downstream direction across the batten roller and the fixing roller. The pressure sensor generates a first signal representing the tensile force on the web as it passes the fixing roller. The first signal is amplified to provide a control signal to the drive for adjusting the speed of the batten roll.

Process for controlling the force on a moving web of material

A fabric web delivery apparatus is provided with a pivotable and vertically adjustable fabric delivery arm having a driven delivery roller at its outward end and also with an independently reciprocable cuttle arm enabling selective positioning of the delivery arm for disposition of the delivery roller alternatively for feeding a traveling fabric web to the cuttle arm for folding the web in pleats, or for peripheral driving contact with a fabric winding roll of a surface-driven fabric winder, or for guiding a traveling fabric web to a fabric winding roll of an axis-driven fabric winder, or for operation as a support roller for a fabric winding roll of a rising-type fabric winder.
