Instead of driving all cores rigidly, each ball friction ring transmits its torque individually \u2013 this compensates for different roll diameters and ensures that the web tension remains constant across all reels. This is controlled via a continuous air pressure application based on the web tension and roll diameter, so that even stretch-sensitive materials are wound with repeatable accuracy.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Which design best suits your application depends on the bearing and loading concept: as a continuous friction winding shaft or as a cantilevered variant for short setup times on the slitter-winder. The following two series cover the most common requirements.<\/p>\n\n<section class=\"acf_block_product_selection product_selection \" style=\"padding-bottom:px;margin-bottom:px;margin-top:px;padding-top:80px;\" >\n    <div class=\"container-fluid max-width\">\n        <div class=\"product_selection__items\">\n                            <a href=\"https:\/\/spanntec.de\/products\/serie-2170\/\" class=\"product_selection__product-item\">\n                    <img src=\"https:\/\/spanntec.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/2170-854x800.png\" alt=\"Serie 2170\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\">\n                    <h3>\n                        Serie 2170                    <\/h3>\n                <\/a>\n                            <a href=\"https:\/\/spanntec.de\/products\/serie-3170\/\" class=\"product_selection__product-item\">\n                    <img src=\"https:\/\/spanntec.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/3170-854x800.png\" alt=\"Serie 3170\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\">\n                    <h3>\n                        Serie 3170                    <\/h3>\n                <\/a>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friction shafts are the ideal choice when longitudinal slitting produces several narrow rolls simultaneously and their material thicknesses vary.
