Roll-2-Roll launches 440mm-wide sensor for web positioning

ARIS WPS 440 IR is the newest product in the company’s portfolio of web positioning sensors for the converting and general automation industry. It includes all the features of the rest of the ARIS WPS line of sensors in addition to the wide sensing window. The new infrared web positioning sensor with a 440mm web sensing window joins the WPS 221 IR to complement the line of wide width sensors.

The wide width application sensors allow the user to detect edges, monitor and measure web width, detect the position of a string or wire, monitor the count of several strings or wires, and measure and monitor the distance between the outermost strands or between the strands. The latest feature in web positioning sensors provides monitoring and measurement of a moving stack of products, such as tissue, with any of the wide width sensors without the need for calibration.
