Solution details

Line speed stabilisation

By introducing the MELSEC iQ-R Series servo system controller, high-accuracy speed-synchronised operation of multiple shafts can be achieved.

The high-speed network CC-Link IE TSN enables high-accuracy synchronised control of multiple drive shafts mixing servos and inverters.

Tension stabilisation

Tension control, etc. can be easily achieved using the iQ-Monozukuri CONVERTING software application specifically for roll to roll equipment.

  • Feedback control, open loop control, winding diameter correction, etc. can be easily achieved using the application package including FB of functions required for roll to roll control.
  • It can also contribute to programme standardisation.

Improving coating thickness accuracy

For the coating process where speed stability is required, using DDM (Direct Drive Motor) without gear transmission mechanisms avoids the influence of backlash.

  • Use of the latest magnetic design and winding technology enables high torque density.
  • The slow rated rotation speed permits direct roll drive.
