Description

Pay-off Stand for Optic Fibre

A unique & cost-effective tensioning system that lets off all your tension …..

• An innovative, technological breakthrough
• Offers direct and precise 4-Q torque control as needed under transient and steady-state operating conditions
• Most cost-effective than a servo-drive system

The twin requirements of delicate handling and tight control of filament tension are the basic process demands of any modern-day optic cable line. The unforgiving and fragile nature of optic fibers makes severe demands on a control system. Any acceptable control system has to provide a stable, highly responsive, and transient-free control of filament tension, especially at the inlet section.

Optic fibers need a relatively low and narrow band of allowable tension values and cannot withstand momentary tension spikes resulting from the inertial loading of conventional tensioning devices. Top-of-the-line servomotor-based control systems (operating in torque or speed modes) have so far been the only answer to meet these process demands. However, the cost involved in installing such systems individually on each of the multi-unwind stands has prompted engineers worldwide to look for viable alternatives to servomotor controls.
