How to Upgrade a North American Web Guide - H5533 Actuator Replacement

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.

Web Guide Actuators

Roll-2-Roll Technologies doesn't just cater to the narrow web guide applications. Our line of actuators can help you in both narrow and wide web applications at any point in your converting process that requires accurate and precise positioning of your web.

Electromechanical actuators are used when quick reactions to changes in the web position are needed. The actuator connects directly to the control unit.

Master/Slave Web Guiding System Installation

Master/slave guiding is a technique used to align two layers of web material, one on top of the other. This process involves measuring the position of the unguided master web, which serves as the base substrate. The position measurement is then relayed to a slave web guiding system. The slave web guide utilizes this information, known as the guidepoint offset, to accurately guide the web material. As the master web moves, the guide point of the slave web is adjusted accordingly, ensuring that the web is guided to a new location that maintains proper lamination between the two webs.
