Seminars For Engineers will host its two-day technical seminar Principles of Web Handling on October 13-14 2009 in Birmingham, UK. Seminars for Engineer’s web handling and converting courses have been taken by thousands of attendees throughout the United States over the past seven years.


This seminar will teach the must-know areas of web handling, including tension control, roller design and alignment, nips, guiding, wrinkling and spreading. The training will address these topics at all levels, providing rules of thumb and their basis in engineering mechanics. Extensive class notes include hundreds of illustrations to help understand advanced concepts. 


The course is instructed by Chris Watson, a web handling technology expert who is a former president of Kroenert Corporation.

The course is applicable to any web-based product, including paper, film, metals, non-wovens, textiles, or any combination of coated or laminated webs. It is intended for product and process designers, process engineers, quality, maintenance and lead operators, as well as sales and service personnel.
