Provided are methods that can prevent either or both of kinking and collapsing of a steel sheet coiled in coil form regardless of the characteristics of the steel sheet. A method of determining a tension pattern of tension applied to a steel sheet to coil the steel sheet in coil form comprises calculating the tension pattern using an apparent elastic modulus in a radial direction of a coil.

A sheet conveyance apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires information indicating a peeling position where a protective film is peeled off a sheet, and a control unit that controls a roll device based on the information and moves the peeling position.

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.

A system (300) is provided having a printer (4) to print printing liquid onto a web (6) of media (8). The system (300) has a winding roller (10) on which to roll the web (6) of media (8) after printing. A tensioner (12) to vary the tension in a portion (14) of the web (6) of media (8) is also provided. The portion (14) is a portion of web which is being rolled onto the winding roller (10). Also provided is controller (16) to control the tensioner (12) to vary the tension based on the time taken for the printed printing liquid on the web (6) of media (8) to dry.

A winding device includes a mandrel for winding the electrode laminate, the mandrel having a first end and a second end opposite the first end; a first rotation driver located at the first end of the mandrel to rotate the mandrel; and a second rotation driver located at the second end of the mandrel to rotate the mandrel.

A control device of a transport device includes a control unit configured to control a roll motor for rotating a first rotary shaft on which a medium is held and a transport motor for rotating a first driving roller, a tension detection unit configured to derive, for each tension detection cycle, a detected tension value of a tension applied to a tension adjustment portion of the medium, and a tension F/B unit configured to calculate a tension F/B correction amount by feedback control based on a deviation between a target tension and the detected tension value. The control unit is configured to calculate a driving force by the roll motor based on the tension F/B correction amount, and control the roll motor based on the driving force.

A device for introducing patterns by radiating a wound continuous substrate. The device provides patterning during continuous roll-to-roll movement without material slippage and with minimal distortion by providing a dancer roll between a processing drum and an unwinder roll on one side, and a winder roll on the other side, for tautly guiding the continuous substrate along a contact surface of at least half of the circumference of the processing drum in order to drive the continuous substrate without slippage. The dancer rolls are adapted to tautly guide the advancing substrate web and returning substrate web with a constant force, and an equilibrium is adjustable between a defined counterforce and the constant action of force on the dancer roll by a stabilization device, and is maintained constant by a controller based on measured deflections of the dancer roll by controlling the rotational speed of the unwinder and winder rolls.
