High-speed transportation of paper web sometimes leads the web handling system into unstable state because of increase in the air-entrainment into the gap between a rotating roll and moving web or the nip region of winding system. In this paper, the property of the traction change with increase in the air-entrainment into the gap between a paper roll and web or the nip region of winding system was investigated experimentally and theoretically. The critical speed to avoid slippage between a roll and web was found to be estimable by applying and extending the concept of "effective" frictional coefficient with the consideration of air-entrainment, which is proposed by Good [1], Hashimoto [2] and so on, to the estimation of the traction force defined as the frictional force on a paper roll or at the nip region. Consequently, the web handling stability at high-speed was found to be predictable.
