Measurement of roll diameter for unwinding control
In the case of high-performance labelers with large a roll diameter, the rotational speed of the label roll is controlled. Sensors from the US-M12 series measure the outer diameter of the label material: the measured value determined is used to continuously adjust the rotational speed of the roller during the process.
Product Recommendation
US-M12
The US-M12 is the compact ultrasonic sensor in the M12 housing. Via IO-Link, it can be operated in a switching or measuring manner. The sensitivity can also be set via teach-in, so the sensor is thus operational within a few seconds.
