POW Series Surface Off-wind

This device is a free standing unit that incorporates several in-feed functions into one compact and convenient machine. Features of this device include:

• Hydraulic stock roll lifting mechanism. This allows the operator to lift stock rolls from the floor without physical exertion, and without the aid of a second person.
• Power surface off-wind driven by regenerative AC motor. This ensures smooth stock roll accelerations without over-run, and eliminates web scratches that can result from braking straps.
• All-electric servo edge guide mechanism. This facility automatically controls the web edge position as it is fed into the bag-making line. Various sensor technologies can be utilized, including ultrasonic edge sensors and CCD line sensors.
• Pneumatically loaded dancer assembly, complete with adjustable pressure regulator and gauge. This precisely controls the web tension leaving the unit and ensures that the stock roll only experiences smooth accelerations. 
• Warning alarm system, including low stock roll detection.
• Maximum stock roll diameter of 1000mm (larger by option)
• Maximum stock roll weight of 950kg (heavier by option)
