The Importance of Weight Valves in Consistent Process Control

Basis weight variation is one of the primary causes of rejected paper reels. The basis weight control valve acts as the master throttle regulating stock flow into the approach flow piping and headbox.

Our V-Port basis weight valves feature zero-backlash harmonic drive actuators capable of resolving over 10,000 discrete positioning steps across the full valve stroke, eliminating flow pulsation and drift.
