Because of its compact size and insensitivity to ambient light, the digital infrared sensor DSE – 22 is the ideal solution for many applications where accurate web guiding is required.
The DSE – 22 Infrared Sensor measures the lateral position of the guided material photo electrically. The control range (proportional band) allows significant guide point adjustment. The DSE – 22 is often used in pairs for centre guiding when web width variations are limited. Its excellent technical specifications allow it to also be used with a Fife processor to guide clear film. Normally the DSE – 22 is used for guiding opaque materials.
It is possible to operate the DSE – 22 with either a supply voltage of 12 V or 24 V. The output signal would automatically be switched over in that case. In 12 V supply mode the sensor provides an output signal from 0 to 10 mA and can be connected to all available Fife web guide processors. In 24 V supply mode the sensor supplies an output signal between 4 and 20 mA and can be easily connected to a PLC as well.
The DSE – 22 has a built-in LED display, visible from both sides, and shows directly on the sensor information about the operating status like for instance the existence of the supply voltage, position of the edge of the web inside the field of view or error messages.
The perfect combination of durability and high-speed operation in a lightweight, ergonomic air shaft is what operators will find in Tidland’s Ultrashaft Carbon Fiber Air Shafts. The Ultrashaft is available with a unique resin rich coating to provide further protection against abrasion, knife cuts, unexpected impact and normal wear and tear from daily shaft handling. This new Ultrashaft M30 results in a lighter overall shaft weight and eliminates guessing if the carbon fiber under a cracked sleeve is safe for your application.
Further enhancements to the shaft include high-torque lugs and non-metallic retraction springs to virtually eliminate bladder failures giving you an ultra-reliable, ultra-durable, ultra-high speed, Ultrashaft.
The Tidland Cyclone™ Series high speed centering shafts increase throughput by eliminating roll loping and enabling web handling operations to run smoothly at higher speeds. The external
element, two-stage pneumatic design holds the core concentric to the body, reducing machine vibration and wear.
The Cyclone Series is available in diameters ranging from 3 inch to over 20 inch.
Series 800 shafts feature innovative two-piece expanding elements, which deliver an impressive combination of balance and torque. These advanced shafts also feature self retraction, durable poly bladder, and a fail-safe multi-circuit air system, with check valves to ensure that a loss of air in one element will not affect the expansion and performance of the other elements.
The Series 800 Strip Shaft is designed for medium- to heavy-duty in 76.2 mm (3 inch) to 508 mm (20 inch) ID cores. This shaft’s full-length strip design delivers excellent torque characteristics, making it ideal for general duty unwind and rewind applications.
These rugged, high-torque air chucks have established a reputation for reliable, non-slip grip that delivers maximum roll control, and permits the running of machines at maximum speed. Air Chucks grip a wide area of the inside core wall with a firm, even pressure that prevents slippage and increases core life. Popular models and sizes from NimCor have been added to the Tidland offering, creating the industry’s largest selection of Air Chucks to suit any need.
