Line-Tec® 200 Fabric Tracking and Guiding Unit

Line-Tec® 200 fabric tracking and guiding unit is based on reliable fabric edge tracking system particularly to withstand paper machine conditions. Line-Tec® 200 fabric tracking and guiding unit can be used in various purposes where ever precise tracking of information is needed, in addition to fabric guiding.

Line-Tec® 200 fabric tracking and guiding unit is tailored to operate in combination with various guide roll actuators. If fabric has been previously guided by mechanical palm, this can be maintained and connected together with Line-Tec® 200 fabric tracking and guiding unit as a secondary unit. Line-Tec® 200 fabric tracking and guiding unit provides non-contacting guiding thus saving fabric edge that increases fabric lifetime. Prompt tracking is possible with Line-Tec® 200 fabric tracking and guiding unit as it delivers online information about fabric movements to the control room. Line-Tec® 200 fabric tracking and guiding unit operates on non contact measuring principle, which prevents wear and tear of the fabric.

Line-Tec® 200 fabric tracking and guiding unit gives output signals on trend possibilities of fabric position and guiding pressures. Line-Tec® 200 fabric tracking and guiding unit technologies can furthermore be adapted to various purposes including pulp sheet tracking in pulp drying machines or oscillation of felts in cd-direction.
