SCU6x

In this video, we explore the process of center guiding using a single sensor. Unlike edge guiding, which focuses on one edge, center guiding utilizes both edges, making it highly effective for managing changes in web width. The tutorial covers setting up the sensor to detect the web's voltage, aligning the web's centerline with a guide point offset, and maintaining the center position with the actuator. The video also highlights the advantage of this method in handling width variations seamlessly and ensuring consistent alignment to the centerline, even with variabilities.

In this video, we delve into the intricacies of making fine guide point adjustments in web guiding systems, particularly during processes like lamination. Traditional methods use a micrometer screw for adjustments, but this video explains how to make precise, real-time guide point changes automatically. Learn how to adjust the guide point by increments of 0.1 millimeters, ensuring optimal alignment without stopping the web movement.

This episode provides a detailed explanation on how to reset the guide point offset to zero in automatic mode using the servo center button. The process is highlighted with caution due to its powerful impact on the guide point and web position, emphasizing that only knowledgeable users should perform this operation. Viewers learn how pressing the servo center button prompts a confirmation to reset the guide point, and accepting it results in moving the actuator to correct the web position to the new guide point reference.

In this video, we revisit the concept of the guide point offset and how to reset the guide point using the SCU6x Controller. This technique is particularly useful when working with wide sensors and handling the web at different positions. The video walks through the steps of resetting the guide point, both in automatic and manual modes, ensuring precise guidance of the web. By following these instructions, you can maintain the correct positioning and handling of your web material, helping to enhance operational efficiency and accuracy.

In this episode, we explain the functionality of an enhanced operator interface that provides a larger view of the actuator position. This feature is particularly useful when operators are working at a distance from the controller, allowing them to make precise adjustments without the actuator reaching its limit. The video demonstrates how the web guide operates in automatic mode and explains the benefits of being able to view the actuator bar from different parts of the machine. The button to access this interface can be used in both automatic and manual modes.

In this video, we explore an important feature of the SCU6x Controller related to the servo center position. We discuss a scenario where operators are not permitted to change the servo center position and how the controller can be configured to lock this setting. By clicking on the motor icon, operators will only be able to see the jog left and jog button options, while the reset servo center button will be hidden.

In this episode, we'll explore the functionalities of the SCU6x controller, focusing on the different operations of jog buttons, and the servo center feature. We'll explain how the servo center button positions the web guide in neutral and how this differs from the momentary jog buttons. The video also covers indicator states for the servo center operation, including how it transitions from green to red. Future videos will detail more about the methods for servo centering, including using electronic limits and physical proximity sensors.

In this video, we introduce and explain the automatic web detect signal feature of the SCU6x Controller. This functionality ensures that the actuator stops moving when the web breaks, even in automatic mode. The video illustrates how the actuator guides the web back and forth and demonstrates the lock on lost edge feature, which holds the actuator's position if no web is detected. This feature is crucial for preventing disruptions in operations when re-threading the web. Join us as we dive deep into how this innovative feature works and its benefits for maintaining smooth operations.

The second part of the SCU6x Controller Tutorial explores the SCU 6X controller with a focus on its functionalities and capabilities not covered in the first part. Learn how to navigate the home screen, perform manual jogging, set servo centers, and operate in automatic web guiding mode. Discover the safety features, guide point adjustments, and the differences between edge guiding and center guiding using sensors. This tutorial provides a comprehensive overview of the controller's interface and its operational capabilities.
