The book is structured into that address every major technical aspect of the field:
This isn't a coffee-table book. It’s a dense, pragmatic, occasionally witty engineering manifesto. Roisum, a legendary figure in the field, writes like a grizzled plant manager who also happens to have a PhD in physics.
Manufacturing engineers rarely solve problems sitting at a desk. Having a PDF loaded on a tablet or smartphone allows them to troubleshoot directly at the machine line.
Officially titled "Web Handling and Converting" (often colloquially called The Web Handling Handbook), this book was authored by Dr. William (Bill) K. Pullum and Dr. Kevin A. Cole. While several academic texts exist on web tension, Pullum and Cole’s work is unique because it bridges the gap between theoretical physics and real-world factory floor solutions.
Advanced strategies for tension control, web guiding (CD path control), and drive tuning.
