Get to know our web guiding solutions
Precision in motion that’s where actuators make the difference. BST actuators translate control signals into accurate mechanical adjustments. Whether pivoting frames, linear guides, or high-speed actuators: they reposition the web quickly, powerfully, and with repeatable accuracy, even at high speeds or with demanding materials.
With robust construction, high dynamics, and precise controllability, these actuators ensure smooth, stable web guiding. They form the strong backbone of every web guiding system.
EMS 21 – Reliability and power you need to experience!
Stable web control is not possible without reliable actuators. Our systems work reliably with simple plug-and-play installation. Connect the web, switch on the power, and the control system is ready for use. Customers benefit from worldwide use in accordance with international standards. Particularly remarkable is the combination of robust technology and immediate readiness for use.
