Asynchronous Main Drives in Rolling Mills
Rotational speed feedback for asynchronous main drives.
Baumer HeavyDuty incremental encoders combine high resolution with high accuracy, enabling optimum synchronization of the entry and exit speeds of multiple rolling stands arranged in sequence. In such environments, a high mechanical reserve capacity guarantees safe, fault-free operation.
High mechanical strength reserves guarantee safe, trouble-free operation in this environment. Production and plant downtime can be avoided. All encoders with integrated bearings can be combined with programmable speed switches to reliably protect the motor and system from overspeed.
