7 Conguring the "Winder Dancer" TA
For the dancer control, the web tension is generated exclusively via an upstream dancer
de
vice. The advantage of a dancer device is its compensaon behaviour in the event of
dynamic disturbances, e.g. those which occur during acceleraon and imbalances in the reel.
In this case, only the dancer posion changes while the tensile force remains constant. The
dancer control is used in cases where the tensile force accuracy and tensile force consistency
must remain within a very small tolerance zone. In the case of the dancer control, the limits
are not determined by the torque seng range, but by the mechanical design of the dancer,
the dynamics (mass, fricon etc.) and the speed seng range of the drive.
Dancer-controlled systems can be used to rewind and unwind the following example materials
at speeds of up to 1000 [m/min]:
•
Cable
•
Wir

Texles
