The smart sensor system for optimum winding quality
The Uhing Measuring System® (UMS) is a sensor-controlled scanning system for the automated control of linear movements in winding processes. With non-contact flange detection using a laser sensor, the system recognises material accumulations, flange positions and deviations - and ensures a uniform winding pattern in accordance with customer requirements. Whether cylindrical or biconical spools or a wide variety of winding materials, such as wire, cable, glass fibre or flat material, the UMS automatically adapts to changing winding scenarios. Manual adjustment of the changeover positions, as with the classic Rolling Ring Drive, is taken over by the laser-supported control system. The system achieves maximum precision and process reliability, particularly in combination with pneumatically or electronically switchable Rolling Ring Drives.
The main product features of the UMS:
- automatic reversal without manual adjustment
- simple operation via touch panel or keypad
- robust sensor technology
- modular system
- various connections to the customer's control system possible
- flexible integration of pneumatics - in separate or existing pneumatic systems
The additional product features of the UMS in winding technology:
- significant time savings with different spool types and dimensions
- spool and material parameters can be saved in recipes
- perfect winding patterns
How the Uhing Measuring System works
A laser sensor mounted on the traversing system continuously records the distance to the coil during the winding process. This reference value is constantly compared with the actual state. If an adjustable tolerance is exceeded, the system triggers the changeover process - precisely, without mechanical buttons.
Product advantages: The Uhing difference
Durable
Reliable Rolling Ring Drive, high-quality sensors from leading manufacturers, Siemens control system, low-maintenance design - perfect for demanding production environments.
Versatile
Suitable for coils with cylindrical or biconical shapes, different material diameters and shapes. Also suitable for retrofitting in existing Uhing systems.
Simple
No manual adjustment of reversal points necessary - this saves time and reduces operating errors. Operation takes place via a touch display.
Safe
Consistently high winding quality without intervention - regardless of operator, reel or material. Sources of error are minimised and machine downtime is reduced.
