Description

VIVA Web Guide Systems (Edge Position Control - EPC / Line Position Control - LPC) are critical electronic integrations that prevent material drift during unwinding, rewinding, or processing. Utilizing advanced ultrasonic or optical photoelectric sensors, the system identifies the exact edge or printed line of the moving web. A microprocessor then signals a fast-acting motorized linear actuator, which physically swings a pivot frame to instantly correct the web path, ensuring perfectly flush roll edges and accurate print registration.

High-End Features

Ultrasonic sensors for transparent films and optical sensors for opaque/printed webs
Microprocessor-based PID control for zero-hunting smooth correction
Heavy-duty linear actuators with zero-backlash ball screws
Pivoting steering frame or shifting unwind/rewind stand configurations
Easy-to-use digital operator interface module

Technical Specifications

Correction Stroke +/- 50mm to +/- 100mm
Sensors Ultrasonic / Infrared / Optical
Actuator Type AC Servo / DC Stepper Motor
Response Time < 20 milliseconds
Control Digital PID Auto-Tuning

Ideal Applications

Retrofit for existing slitting
coating
and printing machines
Unwind edge alignment
