Web oscillation
Oscillation refers to the controlled changing of
the web position following a specific cycle.
This cycle can be time-based or length-
based.

Web oscillation is primarily used for web

guiding in front of rewinders.

For smaller oscillation distances, a change in the elec-

trical set point within the sensor range is sufficient.

Compact pivoting frame DRB

Pivoting frame system ELGUIDER
Function
On an ELGUIDER pivoting frame system, the
web changes direction four times, each time
by 90°. The system is based on a pivoting LÜ
frame with two path rollers. The imaginary
pivot point is located on the infeed plane.
Lateral web corrections can only be achieved
by swiveling around this pivot point. The
L1 L2
prerequisite here is always sufficient tension A-A B-B
for friction-locking between the web and the
guide roller.

Area of use 45 2 3 4 5
Thanks to optimized exploitation of elasticity
ranges, the pivoting frame can be used even
in really tight spaces.
1

Application
The greater the web tension, the module of
B-B
elasticity and the required correction, the lon- A-A K
ger the infeed, outfeed and transfer paths
should be designed. Experience has shown AB
that these paths should be the equivalent of
60 to 100 % of the web width. The sensor
should be positioned behind the positioning
roller, as near to it as possible. 1 3
