our web guidance system RS features the latest in web garden technology in adapts to any material requires no calibration and it is very simple to setup our technology allows the sensor to be material agnostic this means ours accurately detects the web edge position of any materials used without the need for manual adjustments our SS sensor technology works differently than any other currently available sensor in the market it uses the reflection of infrared light to take a picture of the edge of the material this pictures and processed using digital signal processing algorithms to accurately sense the true position of the material irrespective of its physical properties other sensors use a blocking technique where the web is used the block light sounder air since the amount of blocking depends on the material properties the current sensing technology is less accurate with porous or transparent materials ultimately the web Guardian performance is affected by the inaccurate sensor measurement in addition to sensing capabilities ours communicates intelligently with the sensor watch the screen as we show how the sensor communicates with ours a green web detected indicator will verify that the edge is detected by the sensor if the sensor is not connected properly or if the edges outside the window the indicator will not really about the icons you will see a material edge position indicator when the material is in the correct position you will see one red bar and one green bar the green bar indicates the metal portion of the sensor and ideally the web should be in the green bar region if it's incorrectly positioned you will either see no green bar or you will see red bars on both sides of the green if the sensor is not within the measurable distance then the material edge position indicator will be grave the sensor position indicator on either side of the web guide picture shows the position of the sensor with respect to the guide if the sensor indicator does not register the sensor on a correct side of the web or the green bars is white on the wrong side of the web press the find sensor to automatically register at the sensor position indicator to make it simple and foolproof the intelligence and ours can work irrespective of the sensor position as long as the web is inside the sensing window if no sensor is connected or if the sensor is faulty none of the position indicators will be lit when the sensor has plugged back in ours will automatically register the correct sensor position find out more about Aras and our sensors using the link in our description below
