Servo drives for web processing machines 

The precision with which individual work steps are carried out is decisive for the productivity of sheet and web processing machines. Even the smallest deviations in positioning jeopardize the quality.

With the high-dynamics VECTODRIVE^® servo inverter, you achieve a precise synchronization and positioning of the sheet or web material - even with strong and frequent fluctuations in the torque. With the VECTONUM^® control, you can synchronize up to 700 drives - even without sensors.

Application examples

• 700 drives synchronized without sensors in a film stretching line.
• New overlapping process prevents damage to the paper surface and increases productivity by up to 150%. 

Further advantages of the VECTODRIVE^® servo inverters and the VECTONUM^® controls:

• Extremely high-resolution evaluation of the motor currents makes it possible to determine the web tension and the stretching of the web material without sensors, for example.
• Higher availability through additional redundancy (sensorless control parallel to the sensor, patented process of ARADEX).
• Active vibration reduction by identifying and suppressing the vibration excitation.
• Process characteristics can be recorded with the ARADEX Analyser - and over months. 

Integrated copy protection and replacement part guarantee 

The ARADEX drive electronics functions as a dongle and prevents the machine from being reverse-engineered. This is achieved by using FPGA's (ASIC's) in the ARADEX hardware that protect the drive software from being copied. Your investment will be safe from reverse engineering for years. 

In addition, ARADEX offers a long-term replacement part guarantee for its products and only supplies parts to contract partners.
