Width control system FE-8

non-contact

The FE-8 is a modular system to measure and control the layflat width on blown film lines. It can be used as a simple measuring device or as a stand-alone control system package. The non-contact measuring bar detects the edges of the film by two infrared sensors. In this way, it calculates the layflat width. The advantage of this measuring method is that the real layflat width is registered, after the shrinking of the film. Hence the FE-8 is an important device also on lines where the bubble circumference is measured. Application: The FE-8 is a layflat width measuring and control system for blown film lines.
