Product: Securitrack
What is it?: A flexible format, high-security rewinder, which includes a fault retrieval mechanism, as well as a vision system.
Features/Capabilities:
• Can perform normal inspection, slitting, and rewinding as well as high-security inspection and fault retrieval;
• The automatic tension management system, in combination with the Printrack controller and unwind motor drive controller, provide a smooth transition of tension;
• Because the idler system is front-supported, it can be designed to incorporate characteristics that lead to less web flutter, bounce, tension, and web elongation during operation;
• Reduced idler inertia through special tube and bearing design for high-security module, keeping the web moving through the festoon at a desired tension without elongating or shortening; and
• Securitrack’s control system smoothly stops the unwind roll at the highest possible rate without cinching the unwind roll.
