The invention discloses a tension control system, which comprises a driving roller, a driven roller and a tension adjusting device, and is characterized in that in a closed-loop full automatic tension control system formed by a tension sensor on a position of a film, a tension converter, a special winding frequency converter, an electric motor, the driving roller, a group of driven rollers and the tension sensor on the position of the film; the tension sensor of the film, the tension converter and the special winding frequency converter are connected through signal wires in turn; the special winding frequency converter is connected with the electric motor through a cable; the electric motor is directly connected to the driving roller; and the driving roller and the driven rollers are connected by chain wheels. The tension control system adopts frequency conversion winding control technology to overcome the defects of the prior transmission mode, the tension on each position of a production line can be displayed intuitively, and the integral tension of the whole line can be adjusted. The tension control system can be widely applied to the transmission control of the production lines for processing aluminum foils, films, textiles, printing, plastics, and the like.
