The paper converting industry has been evolving very fast in the last few years, and with that change, manufacturers need to keep their equipment updated.

Unico’s Smart Velocity Drive is a digital signal processor (DSP) based variable speed drive with an embedded software block to control a double facer/backer. The program offers several programmable features that enable OEMs, integrators, and users to customize the functionality of the software to the application. The unique features of our double facer drive include flexibility in operations, ease of control, various modes of operation, smart AC digital drives for digital flux vector control, and many input and output options.

Make your paper converting techniques more efficient and flexible with our exceptional pull roll control drive.

Unico’s Smart Pull Roll Drive is a digital signal processor (DSP) based variable speed drive with an embedded software block to control the in-feed, and exit pull rolls of a rotary cutoff. The program offers several programmable features that enable OEMs, integrators, and users to customize the functionality of the software to the application. The incredible features of pull roll control include intelligent web tension control, various modes of operation, flexibility and ease of use, smart AC digital drives, communication protocols, and many input and output options.

You can also monitor the progress of your precise manufacturing by not being physically present with our super-tech monitoring system.

The RDC drive controls a rotary die cutter for corrugated, paper, and other nonmetallic web applications.

Specifically engineered die cutter application software embedded within the drive eliminates the need for an external controller. When used in conjunction with a programmable logic controller (PLC), the drive forms a powerful automation work cell that can be easily integrated with other Unico automation cells to build a complete processing line control system. The drive can also be configured to stand alone with discrete I/O and a dedicated HMI.

Embedded control reduces system complexity while taking full advantage of the exceptional performance, flexibility, and ease of use of Unico drives.

Unico’s high-performance sheeter control systems provide comprehensive solutions at low cost and more flexibility.

Our sheeter control yields optimal cut accuracy, throughput, and energy savings with paper and board applications. Sheeter systems utilize Unico’s AC variable-speed drives developed for complex, performance-oriented applications. Both AC flux vector and DC PWM versions are available.

The drive’s digital-signal-processor (DSP) based controller incorporates software that has been engineered specifically for constant-velocity and cyclic sheeters. There are two modes in which our sheeter drive operates, either cut-to-length or cut-to-mark mode.

A single facer control mainly comprises three parts: single face, overhead conveyor, and roll stand.

Unico’s Smart Velocity Drive is a digital signal processor (DSP) based variable-speed drive with an embedded software block to control a single facer. The program offers several programmable features that enable OEMs, integrators, and users to customize the functionality of the software to the application. Our single facer control’s essential characteristics are the automatic splice control option, flexibility and ease of use, smart AC digital drives, communication protocols, and many others.

With our single facer control, you not only control the process but can also customize the equipment to serve your needs better.

Our smart velocity drive is a digital signal processor (DSP) based variable speed drive with an embedded software block to control a slitter/scorer. The program offers a number of programmable features that enable OEMs, integrators, and users to customize the functionality of the software to the application. These features include modes of operation, lineal tracking, flexible and easy to use, duplex/triplex option, smart AC digital drives, communication protocols, and many input-output options.

With Unico technology, you can also get specific models that will be custom-made for you and your particular needs.

Unico’s Smart Web AOC Shear Drive can be used alone or as part of a multidrive corrugator dry-end system. The drive controls the shear during the automatic-order change (AOC) sequence and scrap chop-out. The drive uses the same control algorithm as the Unico rotary cut-off knife drives and is superior to typical drive packages. The key features of our web AOC shear control system are chop-out after line stop, chop-out wet-end scrap, scrap reject gate control, scrap jam prevention, automatic reference, and many others.

We can also develop a custom Unico product to cater to your needs, with our team on standby for you if you run into a problem.
