Abstract
A roll for a machine for processing a material web, in particular a paper, cardboard, or tissue machine, has a cylindrical roll core and a roll cover which is arranged on the radially outer lateral face of the roll core. The roll cover has a functional layer and a connecting structure which lies radially between the roll core and the functional layer. The radially outer lateral face of the functional layer provides a contact surface which can be brought into contact with the material web or a covering. A plurality of pressure and/or temperature-sensitive sensors are embedded in the roll cover. The sensors are arranged in the connecting structure or at the interface between the connecting structure and the functional layer.
