Description : How do dual-motor dual capstan drives maintain a constant tape tension while operating in either a forward or reverse direction?
Last Answer : Each capstan is driven by its own motor. It maintains tape tension by slowing down one of the motors. When the tape motion is reversed, the opposite motor is slowed down.
Description : . How do tape transports with differential velocity capstans maintain a constant tape tension in the area around the magnetic heads?
Last Answer : The supply capstan is slightly larger than the take-up capstan. This causes the take-up capstan to pull the tape slightly faster than the supply capstan feeds the tape.
