Technical Details

  • The strip width for the passed strip and for the new strip is measured with the optical sensor system EMG BREIMO in front of the welding or stitching machine. In addition, the position of the head of the new strip is determined with the EMG EVK and additionally the angular position of the new strip is determined by taking into account the EMG BREIMO values.
  • The centring of the passed strip in relation to the strip axis and angular position of the new strip is then carried out via a centring frame, which picks up and centres the strip with one or, in the case of thicker strips, with two clamping bars. The position and angular position of the passed strip is measured using two further EMG EVKs.
  • The system can also be designed for bringing the strip head of the new strip in line with the strip tail end of the passed strip.
