Web Fed Printing | Ultrasonic Sensors, Photoelectric Sensors

Pepperl+Fuchs offers a wide variety of sensors for your web fed printing applications.

To ensure smooth print runs, photoelectric and ultrasonic sensors monitor web stock diameters, web breaks, and detect empty rolls. All solutions are insensitive to paper dust, vibrations, and colors. Ultrasonic sensors reduce waste and machine downtime by identifying web splices. All cylinders and parts are precisely detected and positioned by our inductive sensors and encoders. At the feeder and delivery system safety light curtains guarantee machine safety.
