Tensionless input - cloth roll bar feed or twin unwind rollers
|
|
Fabric is unwound off the roll without introducing tension.
Lazy loop feed option for tension sensitive fabrics
|
|
Fabric is unwound into a photocell controlled lazy loop.
Tension control
|
|
Electronic feed control allows fabric to be rewound with or without tension.
Calibrated length measurement
|
|
Fabric length is measured using an industry standard calibrated measuring wheel
combined with an adjustable pressure roller to eliminate material slippage.
Automatic width monitoring
|
|
Fabric width is measured throughout the complete length of roll.
Accurate edge control
|
|
Photoelectrical sensors for accurate re-rolling of material.
Consistent output - twin rewind rollers
|
|
Processed rolls are rewound with the minimum amount of tension and are
consistent from roll to roll.
