- (1888PressRelease) May 11, 2012 - Dover Flexo Electronics (DFE) will demonstrate key features of their firm's latest web tension products at Booth 103 of the Converting and Package Printing (CPP) Expo April 18-19 at Cleveland, OH's I-X Center. Products highlighted will include:
SteadyWeb™5 Digital Tension Controller
This closed-loop digital tension controller maintains set tension on the web in any zone to improve process consistency. A large, backlit LCD display with color graphics simplifies setup and configuration so production management can get machine operators trained in less time. The large front-panel knob allows quick and easy navigation and tension adjustment.
Dover Flexo will demonstrate the new communications tools-including Ethernet and RS-485-on the SteadyWeb5 at the CPP Expo, Booth 103. Stop by with your smartphone or wi-fi tablet device to see how to access the built-in webserver on the controller. You can remotely view tension, change parameters, and run diagnostics using the new communications capabilities. The SteadyWeb5 also boasts:
• A 4.3-inch Graphic User Interface
• A menu scroll knob and soft-key selections
• Storage and recall for up to 30 job setups
• 100-240 Vac or 24 Vdc power input
• Automatic excitation voltage detection
• Isolated control outputs (+/- 10V or 4-20 mA)
• Ethernet connectivity for remote PC access
• Full enclosure or panel-mounting capability
EasyView™ Tension Measurement and Display
This compact, low-cost tension indicator amplifies the web tension signal from tension transducers in a machine's web path, displays the tension on an analog or digital meter, and provides an isolated 0-to-10 Vdc tension signal output, for use, if desired, with a PLC, drive, or controller. Features include:
• Quik-Cal™ technology for stability and easy setup
• 3 ½" x 3" x 4" size-small enough to fit in your hand
• Analog or digital tension display
• Full enclosure or panel mount
Tension Roll® and Narrow Web Transducers in More Sizes
With the Tension Roll Transducer for standard dual-sided machines and the cantilever-mounted Narrow Web Transducer for single-frame machines, quick-and- easy installation and high accuracy becomes possible, thanks to the combination of an idler roll and two tension sensors in one unit.
These transducers also feature durable construction, corrosion-resistance, and your choice of roll finish. Each transducer type is available in 3 roll diameters and a range of widths to accommodate webs 6" (152mm) and larger. Choose either single-bolt mounting or four-bolt flange. Tension Roll® and Narrow Web Transducers also offer:
• Narrow web transducers for cantilevered installation on single-frame machines
• Simple installation between the two sides of a standard machine frame
• Load ratings from 12 lbs and up, with a wide 50:1 operating range
Come see us at this year's expo as we demonstrate all of the new technology we have been working on. We are excited to meet and greet you, and hope you are as excited as we are to see what has changed in our industry. We are looking forward to your excitement during this great period of change.
