SMARTGuide – Proven solutions for optimal web guiding
SMARTGuide
Designed for a wide range of applications, SMARTGuide ensures consistently high-quality results, maximum flexibility, and process reliability even at high production speeds.
Description
In high-speed printing and extrusion processes, perfect web alignment is crucial for productivity and quality. Fluctuating web widths, material variations, and limited installation space often make precise guiding a challenge. BST SMARTGuide meets these requirements with proven technology, modular flexibility, and outstanding control accuracy.
Its modular architecture allows complete adaptation to specific production requirements. Designed for low material stress, SMARTGuide ensures stability and precision even with sensitive substrates. As a result, you produce less waste and reduce machine downtime. The optional motorized sensor adjustment with automatic edge seeking simplifies setup and improves accessibility - ideal for frequent width changes or complex machine layouts.
BST SMARTGuide enables the seamless integration of advanced BST sensor technology such as CLS CAM 100 or CLS CAM 200 and allows not only web edge or web center control, but also line, contrast, and object-based guiding. With preconfigured functionality and intelligent communication interfaces, it offers an efficient, future-proof solution for precise and reliable web guiding.
