Sheet Winding Device (Feeder Section) Case Study of Prevention of Sheet Damage and Sagging by Automatic Adjustment Of Tension
Issue
Preventing Sagging and Damage to the Sheet (Feeding Section)
Conventional Equipment
Winding process for sheet manufacturing equipment using an induction motor.
A motor is used only for the winding section.
- Application
- Winding of packaging sheets, tapes, films, and paper rolls
Conventional Problems
- The increase in winding diameter causes changes in the load and winding speed, which resulted in sagging and damage to the sheet
- Wanting to install a tension controller and torque detector, but unable to do so due the high costs
Solution
Torque Motor TM Series
Serves as a brake for feeding and unwinding
The TM Series, which is able to use motor power as a brake, can be installed on the sheet feeding and unwinding sides to maintain proper tension while winding.
Specific Application Examples
Torque Motors That Can be Used as Brakes
The TM Series can also generate a braking force when rotated in the opposite direction to the motor rotation direction by an external force, etc. If installed on the feeding or unwinding side, the brake characteristics can be used as tension.
Achieves Low-Cost System Configuration
The list price of the TM Series (Torque Motor and Power Controller) ranges from 19,300 JPY~34,400 JPY.
More cost-effective than using tension controllers and torque detectors.
Easy Torque Setting with Dedicated Power Controller
One of the components, the power controller, is used in torque setting.
3 setting methods can be selected: Internal Torque Potentiometer, External Torque Potentiometer, and DC Voltage Control.
