All-servo control for independent-arm centre-winding gantry slitters

All-servo tension control with a common DC bus

·

  • The driven unwind uses dancer tension feedback. Maximum web width is 3.5 m. A twin-drive arrangement can provide torque coupling between the drive side and operator side.
  • Rewinding uses multiple independent stations at the front and rear, with up to 11 stations. Roll diameter is calculated automatically, with multi-section taper-tension settings and compensation for mechanical friction torque.
  • Servo motors drive the complete machine. Maximum slitting and rewinding speed is 600 m/min.
  • The HMI provides parameter settings, operating controls and monitoring. The machine stops accurately at the preset length.
