Calibrating the Web Width Measurement

Using this function you calibrate the web width measurement.

For the calibration, introduce a piece of material with a known width (reference material) into the measuring range of the edge sensors or CCD camera(s) and determine the material width as reference width.

  1. Introduce the reference material into the measuring range of the edge sensors or CCD camera(s).
  1. Position the edge sensors such that the reference material covers the measuring range of both sensors up to the halfway point.
