Web Guide Sensors
All FMS web guide sensors are fully compatible with all FMS steering frames.
US01B/04B Series Ultrasonic Edge Sensor
The ultrasonic sensors US01B/04B are suitable for the detection of all materials with the exception of sound transmissive ones (e.g. no open weave textiles). They are factory set, so that no adjustements are necessary. The main advantage of the US series is the detection of transparent films.
| Features | Advantages |
| Optimised microprocessor-controlled ultrasonic transmission | Insensitive against material plane change |
| Powersupply 24 V, output 0...10 V | Common industry standard |
| Galvanically isolated | Shielded from electrical noise |
| 2 ms cycle time | Suitable for fast running applications |
AZS01A/04A Series Optical Edge Sensor
The AZS sensor is an optical edge sensor for the detection of all opaque materials. The integrated light source emits visible and infrared light. The measurement is made with a infrared CCD line sensor, that detects the transition from light to dark produced by the shadow of the material edge in the light beam. Parallel beams make the sensor insensitive to height variations.
| Features | Advantages |
| Resolution 6 / 100 mm; measuring width 16 mm | Large working width with high precision |
| Powersupply 24 V, output 0...10 V | Common industry standard |
| Galvanically isolated | Shielded from electrical noise |
| 2 ms cycle time | Suitable for fast running applications |
| Detection unit with shielded light path and infrared filter | Insensitive against ambient light level |
DLS Digital Line and Edge Detection Sensor
The DLS digital line and edge detection sensor is a self-adjusting material position sensor for web guiding applications that recognizes printed lines, edges and holographic elements. The DLS digital line sensor automatically selects the best illumination via integrated software to simplify the set-up process.
| Features | Advantages |
| Resolution of 6/100mm, 2ms cycle time | High performance, fast response |
| 2 button control | Easy to set up and operate |
| LED position indicator | Visual display of material position |
| Galvanically isolated | Shielded from electrical noise |
