All-Air Displacement Guides
click image to enlarge |
Displacement Guides correct web misalignment (error) by pivoting a set of guide rollers about a fixed point to geometrically displace (align) the web. A displacement guide provides correction with minimal entry and exit span requirements. Displacement guides are ideal for applications with space limitations.
Requirements for displacement guide applications:
- Entry and exit spans must be parallel to each other and perpendicular to the plane of the guide's motion
- Web must enter and exit the guide at a 90° angle
- Guide span should be approximately 1x the maximum web width
- The air-flow sensor must be securely mounted after the guide's exit roller and within the first one-third of the exit span
- At least one idler roller must be located between the exiting guide roller and the process (printing, laminating, etc.)
