Getting to Know Spectra™ 30
The Spectra 30 pattern controller has the flexibility of having three
configurations:
S Time-based
The time based functionality enables the pattern controller to monitor
constant line speeds and has an accuracy of +/- 1 ms (1 mm at 60 m/min
or 0.1 in. at 500 ft/min).
S Distance (requires encoder)
The distance-based functionality enables continuous tracking of line
position to within one millimeter (or 0.1 inch). This allows dispensing of
precise adhesive patterns at production speeds that reach
300 m/min (983 ft/min). Distance-based systems can also operate in
time-base.
S Distance based functionality with inputs/outputs, including two outputs
which are proportional to the line speed (pressure run-up).
NOTE: The needed hardware exists in all the configurations. The functions
are enabled by software licenses.
