Printing – Converting

Tension Control

Printing and Converting processes requires usually a high level of Tension Control accuracy. MEROBEL’s Brakes, Clutches, Controllers and Sensors are the perfect solution for building reliable, accurate and user’s friendly Tension Control systems.

Registration Control

REDEX ANDANTEX Differential Phase-Shifters allow precise adjustment of the angular position of the output shaft, relative to the input shaft, while the machine is at rest or in motion.

• Register Control Between Print Units
• Register Control of Die-Cutting Station
• Speed & Position Control for Finishing a Pre-Printed Web

Typical applications include:

• In-line Web Finishing Equipment
• Printing Presses
• Labeling Machines
• Plastic or Film Web Machinery
• Packaging Machines
• Textile Machinery
• Paper Converting Machinery
• Timing or Cutoff Knives

Right Angle Drives

Mechanically shaft driven machines require to distribute power on each operating stations.

The use of high stiffness & low transmission error bevel gearboxes gives the expected high quality and constant result on the printed products.

Intermediate Tension Control

Applying a slight difference of linear speed between the infeed and draw station pulls on the web. The differential gearboxes provides adjustment of the speed difference allows to adjust the speed difference with the highest accuracy and then controls the web tension on each printing station.
