North American Web Guide

Explore the essential aspects of actuators in web guiding systems in this episode of our webinar series on Web Guiding Fundamentals. Discover the various types of actuators, including pneumatic, hydraulic, and electromechanical, along with key terminologies such as thrust, correction speed, and backlash. Learn about the significance of actuator sizing, web speed, and the impact of gravitational effects. Ideal for anyone looking to deepen their knowledge on steering guides and actuator functionality in modern web handling systems.

Converters can save money and time by installing a North American Web Guide Upgrade kit from Roll-2-Roll Technologies.

In the video we demonstrates the replacement of the actuator on an old North American Web Guide as part of the upgrade process with Roll-2-Roll® Web Guide Upgrade Kit, with controller, sensor and actuator.

The video shows step by step the process of removing the existing actuator and replacing it with a Roll-2-Roll Technologies actuator.
