hello this is peridot a last go with roll-to-roll technologies now we have customers that have come to us because they have new more hydraulic units installed on their own their lives now they're using this new hydraulic units to guide the web now there's something a problem with these new hydraulics is that number one there are very bulky piece of equipment so they occupied it a lot of space in your line additionally you have all these hydraulic lines running all over the place at the same time they're very noisy and actually you have the risk of having leakage or any importance to that draw the fluid which can mess up your operation very bad especially your products another issue that we have with those is because the sensors are actually running with air then they have issues issues with the with accuracy and at the same time there's an issue of maintenance you have to change filters every so often and there's the issue of cost these things are very costly to operate because the motor on the hydraulic unit has to be constantly running so we have a solution for that with a retrofit kits for these for these new hydraulic units in your lines so one of the things that we want to show you today is before and after of a retrofit kit that we have done so on we actually took one of these steering guides and we can show we're going to show you how we did the retrofit specifically of the actuator a hydraulic actuator and we put our electromechanical actuator on it and at the same time we can talk to you a little bit about more how the system reduces the space required for this and at the same time how your performance will increase because of our accuracy that we provide you with our system so in here we show you the finished product of our retrofit in this case we have installed our motor actuator on system we replaced the hydraulic unit that they had the hydraulic cylinder they had and we placed a several Center sensor we have we would provide you with a motor driver for this unit this is the plate that we prepare for you so you can adapt this into the your assembly on the Raceway and it would make it very simple to reinstall in your opera so now as we can see we have most of the components of required to do an Omaha Dalek retrofit kit the control box the we have the actuator with it's a motor driver and then we have the sensor itself in this case we have a 221 now the 221 allows you if you have a let's say variations and width of material that you're going to run 221 is actually very good and if you have to 220 once you can do a center guide with it but what I want to show you here most most important is this is how we would actually have it installed on your line so in this case you have the 221 and then on the backside you can see this is would be the bracket that we would use to mount it on a rail that we can make it out of a one-inch extraordinary minim which can go any width that you need that you require and it's a very simple to use bracket it has a brake or a lever that acts as a brake and once you release it you can just slide the sensor easily in position and once you have it in position you can just close it back up so as you can see here are some of the benefits that we provide you when you actually do a retrofit with our electric electrical mechanical system in comparison with the pneuma highway number one is there is no leakage so you have no issues of having hydraulic fluid on your floor or on your product considerably less noise the only thing you might hear if you even hear it is the sound of the actuator moving mm-hm we provide better accuracy because we're using our high-end technology the newest thing that we have on the market which is a sensor that requires no calibration in very high accuracy in comparison to using a sensor that uses air lower power consumption because we're using 24 VDC that's all it is before you are using a motor that requires 220 volts into it so it's a very high wattage that you're gonna have to operate we have less maintenance with this because with a new mahalik system you need to do changes of filters and you need to do checks of couplings in connections so this reduces the cost of operation better control and more flexibility because we can put the operator interface in any place that you require we can actually connect our controls to a PLC and better yet something that in the future is going to be where the web handling industry is going to its data collection for usage in determining the your processor health or any other things that you might want especially with key like issues so we hope that this has been educational for you and will help you make a decision if you have a pneumo hydraulic unit just contact us and we can actually help you with how to do this retrofit in your and your operation believe me you will save a lot of money by doing this this this changeover if you want to find out more about our systems and
