ITEM MAINTENANCE & PRECAUTIONS

I. Safety Warnings
▲ Professional Installation: System installation, wiring, and commissioning must be performed by a qualified electrical engineer.

▲ Power Off Before Servicing: Always disconnect the power supply before performing any wiring or maintenance operations.

▲ Proper Grounding: Ensure the system and sensors are properly and reliably grounded to prevent electric shock, interference, and equipment damage.

▲ Power Supply Voltage: Confirm that the power supply voltage matches the rated voltage specified on the equipment nameplate.
II. Installation & Usage
▲ Sensor Selection: The standard PS-400S ultrasonic sensor is suitable for opaque materials such as non-woven fabric, woven bags, paper, and cloth. It is not effective for transparent materials like clear film or glass. Please select specialized photoelectric or CCD sensors for such applications.

▲ Sensor Mounting: When installing the sensor, ensure its detection surface is parallel to the material surface and within the recommended detection distance for optimal performance.

▲ Mechanical Limits: Although the system can operate without limit switches, it is recommended to check the physical movement range of the mechanical structure during initial setup to prevent mechanical collisions under extreme conditions.

▲ Environmental Conditions: Avoid using the equipment in harsh environments with high temperature, humidity, excessive dust, corrosive gases, or strong electromagnetic interference.
III. Maintenance
▲ Regular Inspection: It is recommended to periodically inspect the power cords, sensor cables, and connectors for damage, and check for loose screws.

▲ Keep Clean: Keep the equipment clean, especially the sensor's detection window, to avoid affecting detection accuracy.

▲ Consult Professionals: If abnormal operation occurs, do not disassemble the equipment yourself. Please contact qualified technical personnel or our technical support team directly.

ITEM DETAILS

The Core Actuator

The Core Actuator: Precision Structure, Powerful Performance

The high-performance servo actuator. Built with a robust alloy structure, it integrates a precision ball screw drive mechanism, directly powered by a high-performance servo motor. This design delivers not only a powerful linear thrust of up to 1 ton but also ensures millimeter-level repeatable positioning accuracy, smooth and quiet operation, and a long, maintenance-free service life. It is the solid foundation for all precise guiding actions.

Intuitive Control

Intuitive Control: Clear Layout, One-Touch Access

This 4.3-inch controller features a logically arranged and clearly labeled physical keypad, perfectly balancing operational efficiency with reliability. The four core functions—Auto, Manual, Detect, Center—can be switched with a single press for quick access to different operating modes. The Manual Left and Manual Right keys allow for precise fine-tuning, facilitating setup, debugging, and manual intervention. The Set and Return keys create a clear human-machine interaction logic, making parameter configuration straightforward.

Precise Sensing

Precise Sensing: Rugged, Durable, Stable, and Reliable

PS-400S ultrasonic guiding sensor specifically designed for opaque materials like non-woven fabric, woven bags, paper, and cloth, it operates on a non-contact ultrasonic detection principle, making it immune to color variations and endowed with strong anti-interference capabilities. Housed in a rugged casing with a high protection rating, it withstands various harsh industrial environments. Its core advantages include a long detection range, stable signal output, and fast response time, enabling it to consistently provide reliable edge or line position data.

ITEM OPERATING INSTRUCTION

  1. Securely mount the guiding mechanism in the proper location on the production line, ensuring the web path runs through the center of the guide.
  2. Select the appropriate sensor (e.g., ultrasonic PS-400S for opaque materials, or photoelectric for transparent) based on the material type. Mount it in a position where it can stably detect the material's edge or line.
  3. Connect the power supply that meets the equipment's rated requirements. (Warning: Ensure the power is OFF before wiring.)
  4. Turn on the main power switch. The system will boot up, and the color touchscreen will display the main operation interface.
  5. Follow the "Setup Wizard" on the touchscreen to select the guiding mode (e.g., EPC for edge guiding), set mechanical parameters (e.g., stroke limits), and configure the sensor type.
  6. With the material running normally, use the "Auto Calibration" function or manually adjust to ensure the sensor correctly identifies the material's edge or line.
  7. Manually simulate a web misalignment and observe if the system corrects it back to the set position quickly and smoothly. Fine-tune parameters like response speed and gain as needed.
  8. After completing all setup and testing, switch the system to "AUTO" mode. It will now continuously monitor and automatically correct the material position.
  9. During production, monitor the system status in real-time via the touchscreen, such as current position, deviation amount, and sensor signal strength.

Note: The above are simplified steps. Please refer to the full instruction manual provided with the product for detailed operations.
