ABSTRACT:
A motion control system for a reel to reel web transport apparatus which maintains a controlled tension on a web as it is transported between reels. The motion control system includes brushless direct current motors directly coupled each reel. A magnetic hysteresis brake is coupled to each reel by means of respective one-way clutches. During transport of the web from reel to reel, a magnetic hysteresis brake applies a controlled torque only to the reel supplying web. Thus, a controlled tension is maintained on the web at all times, even during loss of power to the DC motors.
