Slitters with distributed control and drive technology: A New Twist to Roll Converting Webs

摘要

GOEBEL Schneid- und Wickelsysteme GmbH of Darmstadt, Germany, introduced a new automation design concept for its universal paper and foil slitters. With its modular and distributed design, it differs from previous models, largely as a result of the highly compact drives of the Sinamics product range. The PC-based control system, another new feature, offers exceptional performance for this class of systems, while helping to keep costs low.
