Optical Flange Detector enhances spooling accuracy.

Optical Flange Sensing System enhances winding accuracy when used with Uhing traverse winding drives. Two versions are available: one relies on reflective properties of spool flanges, and one uses light curtain concept that does not require reflected light. Both systems employ opto-sensors to detect spool flanges and signal pneumatic or electronic switch to flip spring-actuated reversal lever on...
