Abstract (en)

[origin: US6704978B1] The present invention relates to a method for guiding a flat web of material (1) in which the web of material (1) runs in an arrangement of rotating rollers at a web speed vF. The web of material is guided in its peripheral region via a spreader roll (2) which produces a tensile stress in the transverse direction, i.e. crosswise relative to the machine direction of the web of material (1), wherein this tension in the transverse direction is controlled by means of closed-loop control of the circumferential speed vR of the spreader roll (2) and/or by open-loop control of the cant angle alpha and/or of the wrap angle beta between the surface of the spreader roll (3) and the web of material (1) and wherein the circumferential speed vR is greater than the web speed vF.
