Web Handling Systems

PRECISION TENSION CONTROL FOR CONTINUOUS MATERIALS

Purpose-built web handling systems for films, foils, and flexible substrates. Closed-loop tension control that outperforms legacy technologies, engineered for the processes that catalog machines can’t handle.

WHEN TENSION IS THE WHOLE GAME

In web processing, the material is only as good as the tension holding it. One wrong zone, one inconsistent reading, and the entire line suffers. Lehnen builds web-handling systems with closed-loop tension control in every zone, so your product stays consistent from foot to foot, batch to batch, shift to shift.

Engineering Standards

ENGINEERED FOR CONSISTENCY. BUILT FOR UPTIME.

Closed-Loop Tension Control

Measurement and control systems that outperform legacy technologies. Real-time feedback across every tension zone, every point in the process.

Multiple Tension Zones

Independent, precise control in each zone of your line. No single setting was compromised to accommodate another.

Dynamic Material Control

Mechanical tension is dynamically managed at every point in the process, ensuring material consistency from start to finish.

Custom In-House Programming

Software built by our in-house team, in constant communication with every tension component. No off-the-shelf middleware, no black boxes.

Operator-First Control Panels

All essential data is accessible via the machine’s control panel display. Straightforward to operate, easy to manage, built for the people actually running the line.

Our Approach

FROM YOUR MATERIAL TO YOUR PRODUCTION LINE

INDUSTRIES

BUILT FOR PROCESSES THAT CAN'T AFFORD DRIFT

Life Sciences Manufacturing

Precision web handling for materials used in diagnostic, medical device, and life science manufacturing, where tolerances and documentation are non-negotiable.

Industrial Automation

Automated tension control for industrial web processing operations historically run by hand, where consistency, uptime, and operator load all need to improve.

Advanced Manufacturing

Custom web lines for specialty materials, laminates, and flexible substrates across high-precision, high-value manufacturing processes.
