In this installment of the Webinar on Web Guiding Fundamentals, we delve deeper into the pivotal role of controllers in web guiding systems. The episode covers the function of controllers, components such as gain, operating voltage, and sensor inputs, and explores the control structure for web guide systems, including fixed gain proportional control and adaptive control technologies. By examining open loop and closed loop responses, we highlight the importance of optimal tuning for improved performance. Advanced functionalities such as industrial ethernet connectivity and Industry 4.0 intelligence are also discussed, with a focus on achieving stability and high bandwidth for effective web guiding.
