Abstract: A method for improving frequency response of a high-speed data acquisition device includes sampling signals received at an input of the high-speed data acquisition device at a first sampling rate and generating a digital data stream representative of the sampled input signals. The digital data stream is interpolated to generate an interpolated digital signal with a higher sample rate than the first sampling rate, and one or more finite impulse response (FIR) filters are applied to the interpolated digital signal to generate a filtered digital signal. The filtered digital signal corrects for: parasitic and/or expected response of elements from the network of resistors and capacitors in the anti-aliasing filter in the high-speed data acquisition device, and select anti-aliasing filter response characteristics. The filtered digital signal is decimated to reduce the sampling rate of the filtered digital signal and generate a decimated digital signal.

Abstract: Multiple groups of sensors are circumferentially spaced apart at each cross-directional position along a sensing roll of a nip press to measure and cancel or nearly cancel the effects of rotational variability which may be acting on the sensing roll. The strategically-placed sensors are designed to measure the pressure being placed against the web that is being advanced through the nip press. The average of the measurements of multiple sensors spaced circumferential apart provides a good cancellation of any rotational variability that might be found at a cross-directional position on the sensing roll. In this manner, a more true measurement of the nip pressure profile can be obtained and better adjustments made to reduce nip pressure profile variability. In addition, the nip variability profile may be used as a predictor of cover or bearing failures, resonant frequencies and other roll anomalies.
