Function

The web width measurement with edge sensors or CCD camera(s) enables a continuous monitoring of the web width during the production process.

The function calculates the width of the web of material from the positions of the two material edges detected by the edge sensors or CCD cameras of the web guiding system. The material width calculated is shown in the display of the control panel. If the web width measured is less or more than the warning or error limit preset by the operator, it is displayed. The controller provides digital message outputs for the warning and error limits.

For the web width measurement with edge sensors, two sensors are used for detecting both material edges regardless of the material width. For the web width measurement with CCD camera(s), one or two CCD cameras are used depending on the maximum material width.
