Provided are an adhesive tape pasting device, mechanism and method for zero-tension double-faced adhesive tape pasting, which belong to foil adhesive tape pasting apparatuses. The adhesive tape pasting device comprises an unwinding station, a winding station, a winding electric motor and an adhesive tape pasting assembly, where after the unwinding station unwinds a double-faced adhesive tape and the adhesive tape pasting assembly pastes an adhesive tape of the double-faced adhesive tape onto a foil, the winding electric motor drives the winding station to wind a remaining release paper of the double-faced adhesive tape. The adhesive tape pasting device further comprises an unwinding driving assembly, where the unwinding driving assembly drives the unwinding station to carry out unwinding work, and in the adhesive tape pasting process, the unwinding work and winding work are carried out synchronously.

Method and parameterization unit for parameterization of a tractive force controller of a controlled roller of a web-processing machine, the tractive force controller controlling a speed of the controlled roller in order to transport a material on the web-processing machine from the controlled roller to a further roller or from a further roller to the controlled roller at a line speed and while being subjected to the tractive force. The method includes, during a standstill test at a line speed of zero, increasing the tractive force to an identification tractive force, preferably 90% of a predetermined standstill tractive force operating point, to determine standstill system parameters of the tractive force system, to calculate standstill controller parameters of the tractive force controller from the standstill system parameters of the tractive force system, preferably by a frequency characteristic method, and to parameterize the tractive force controller using the standstill controller parameters.

A liquid ejection apparatus includes a conveying unit, a winding unit, a printing unit, and a rotation control unit. The conveying unit is configured to intermittently convey a printing medium by a predetermined feed amount. The winding unit is configured to wind the printing medium conveyed by the conveying unit. The printing unit is configured to perform printing on the conveyed printing medium. The rotation control unit is configured to control the winding unit to rotate in a winding direction at a predetermined timing after the conveying unit has started to convey the printing medium intermittently, and then cause the winding unit to rotate in a reverse direction opposite to the winding direction.

A dunnage conversion system for making a coil of dunnage from a sheet stock includes a coiler, a movable dancer upstream of the coiler and interposed in a path of the sheet stock, and a controller communicatively coupled to each of the coiler and the movable dancer. The coiler is configured to wind the sheet stock, and the controller is configured to control the speed of the coiler based on the position of the movable dancer to control tension of the sheet stock upstream of the coiler. The sheet stock drawn about the movable dancer may be a slit-sheet stock having a plurality of slits configured to expand under tension applied in a feed direction. The controller may be configured to control expansion of the slit-sheet stock upstream of the coiler allowing conversion of the sheet stock into a coil of relatively less dense dunnage prior to or during winding.

An example method comprises operating a drive unit to advance a substrate in a substrate advance direction toward a printing station. At the printing station, a first line is printed onto the substrate. A drive unit is instructed to advance the substrate in the substrate advance direction by a target amount, and a second line is printed onto the substrate. The distance between the first and second lines in a direction perpendicular to the substrate advance direction is calculated and, based on the calculated difference, a tension of the substrate is modified.
