“Taper tension” function
The “Taper tension” function is normally used to avoid that the material on the reel is too tensioned (or not
sufficiently tensioned) as the diameter increases, and vice versa. It allows to change the brake use
percentage automatically, according to the diameter of the reel, and it is normally used on the rewinders, but
in some cases, it is also useful on the unwinders.
Rewinders:
The use percentage of brake or clutch has
a value calculated according to the
diameter until the diameter is less than
the Taper start value set (F.11), then it
decreases (or increases) as the diameter
increases, until it reaches, at the Taper
end diameter (F.12), the set point value
decreased (or increased) by the Taper
percentage set (F.10).
Example:
if you set: F.10 = -20 (Taper percentage) there will be: OUT = OUT if diameter < 200
F.11 = 200 (Taper start diameter) OUT = OUT - 10% if diameter = 500
F.12 = 800 (Taper end diameter) OUT = OUT - 20% if diameter = 800
Unwinders:
The use percentage of brake or clutch
has a value calculated according to the
diameter until the diameter is more than
the Taper start value set (F.11), then it
decreases (or increases) as the diameter
decreases, until it reaches, at the Taper
end diameter (F.12), the set point value
decreased (or increased) by the Taper
percentage set (F.10).
Example
if you set: F.10 = -20 (Taper percentage) there will be: OUT = OUT if diameter > 800
F.11 = 800 (Taper start diameter) OUT = OUT - 10% if diameter = 500
F.12 = 2
