Web Buffer Module VU6-800Â
PurposeÂ
The vacuum unit stores sufficient paper that any paper web retraction by the printer is ensured if the need arises. In addition, the vacuum unit prevents folding over or creasing of the loops after the printer at high printer speeds and when using lightweight paper.Â
Method of operationÂ
The paper web emerging from the printer is drawn into a loop by means of a vacuum. In the event of a printer stop, the loop is sufficient to permit a controlled paper web retraction. The loop length is controlled by means of a photocell.Â
