Versatility, Precision, Measurement
In parallel to its most recent developments in digital controllers 4.0, REDEX enhances its portfolio of mechatronic solutions and now offers the market the best of its know-how in force measurement.
WAT+, its new range of force sensors completes its devices range designed to ensure complete control of industrial processes such as unwinding, winding and any intermediate transformation of wires, fibers, films and papers. Combined with EMP torque actuators and specialized tension regulators, these new sensors provide optimized accuracy in real time measuring the tension applied to these products.
The most obvious results are both increased reliability of the production process leading to optimized product quality and a considerable reduction in waste.
Single Size Body, various sensing accessories
To go a little further into detail, each REDEX WAT+ sensor solution consists of a versatile force sensor body (the heart of the solution) to which various sensing accessories can be attached.
In addition, thanks to the optimization of the internal structure, the different measuring sensitivities could be housed in a single size body.
Among the many other advantages of this single size in terms of cost reduction is, of course, the possibility of using exactly the same accessories, regardless of the force range selected.
At the end, it is worth noting one of the other major targets of this modular design, which is to allow users (OEM and end-users) to design and supply their own accessories according to their particular needs, such as special lengths, special surface treatments, specially shaped pulleys, etc.
