Utilization

The ekr 500 digital Unit Touch controller has a connection for a motorized FVG POS 100 sensor positioner. The sensor positioner enables the motorized positioning of the edge sensors connected (Sensor 1, Sensor 2).

If the installation position of the sensor is hard to access or the position of the sensor has to be changed frequently due to changing web widths, the sensor positioner is used to position the sensor across the web running direction. In Automatic mode, the sensor slide runs towards the web of material until the sensor has detected a web edge (automatic edge detection).

For a detailed description of the sensor positioner, see the installation and operating manual FVG POS 100, document number MD.476.
