FMS USA, Inc. reports that its new Radio Transmitted Tension Monitoring (RTM) system provides wire and cable makers an affordable way to mom-tor and control tension in individual wires on rotating machines. An RTM System can be easily applied on most planetary or tube stranders, bunchers, twisters, or any rotating machinery, a press release said. The system, which sends the signals by radio transmission, avoids drawbacks of mechanisms such as slip rings (cost, wear, signal noise, installation issues, etc.) and telemetry systems (unidirectional analog data transmission, multi-positional prohibitive cost, etc.).
