Improving Slitter/Winder Performance on Differential Winding Shafts with the X-3400 Controller
“When considering upgrading your slitter winder for differential rewinding capabilities, selecting the proper winding shafts is only part of the equation. The differential shafts will allow the cores to slip, but controlling the amount of slip, and the torque transferred to the cores needs to be considered carefully as well.
In order to ensure successful differential winding, you must consider your shaft requirements carefully. You must also consider how the machine will deal with providing the correct amount of overspeed rotation for the winding shafts, along with adjusting the torque levels to wind a quality roll with the proper amount of taper tension. By considering the control system as well, only then will you be able to fully take advantage of the benefits differential winding has to offer.
The Montalvo X-3400 Rewind Tension Controller, part of the Montalvo CB-64 family of tension controllers, will precisely regulate the torque levels transferred to the rolls, no matter what the slit width is, and control the overspeed required for the rewind motor to ensure minimal core dusting, eliminate overheating, increase the lifespan of the winding shafts, and simplify the entire winding process for quality results every time…”
Press Release: Montalvo @ ICE Europe 2011
The Montalvo Corporation, international specialists in industrial web control systems, will be in HALL B6, STAND 590 at the ICE (International Converting Exhibition) Trade Show November 8-10, 2011 in Munich, Germany.
Among the web control products displayed by Montalvo at ICE will be their new generation of tension controllers, including the S4 digital controller, U4 open loop controller, and A4 load cell amplifier module.
Other innovations will include the Montalvo DPS-1 Dancer Position Sensor used on rider arms, dancers, accumulators and multi-pass dancers and a large range of other tilt applications.
Other new products and services will include the ES series load cells, U-Series load cells, two V-series industrial brakes, a
HP-Series brake demonstration, and information on ways to accurately control web tension. Montalvo specialists will be at the show who can provide assistance with system evaluation, installation and setup of Montalvo web control equipment on customers’ machines.
