BEDOOK EWD-U800 Web Guiding Actuator

The EWD-U800 Series Web Guiding Actuator from BEDOOK is a heavy-duty solution designed to address the most demanding web deviation rectification challenges in industrial automation.

Engineered with a high-power stepper motor and robust U-shaped structure, this Web Deviation Rectifying Actuator delivers unmatched thrust and precision for large-scale web handling.

As a flagship product in BEDOOK’s actuator lineup, the EWD-U800 Series combines industrial-grade durability with intelligent feedback systems, ensuring reliable performance in high-tension applications such as steel processing or wide-format textile production.

Product Features (BEDOOK EWD-U800 Web Guiding Actuator)

Designed for heavy-web industries, the EWD-U800 Series Web Guiding Actuator stands out for its 800kg pushing force and dual-stroke options (±75mm and ±100mm).

BEDOOK’s commitment to innovation is evident in its built-in real-time positioning sensor, which enables closed-loop control with BEDOOK’s XPC-100L controllers for millisecond-level response times. Whether integrated into packaging lines, paper mills, or aerospace composite facilities, this Web Deviation Rectifying Actuator simplifies complex web guiding tasks with its modular design and CAN-Bus compatibility.

• Heavy-Duty Power for Industrial Demands: With an 800kg max pushing force, the EWD-U800 Series outperforms standard actuators by 200-300kg, making it ideal for ultra-heavy materials like rolled steel or multi-layer composite panels. Competitors’ actuators in the same class often cap at 500kg, limiting their use in high-tension applications where the EWD-U800 excels.
• Dual Stroke Options for Versatility: The series offers ±75mm and ±100mm stroke lengths, catering to both moderate and extreme web deviations. For example, in corrugated board production, the ±100mm stroke handles sudden web shifts during roll changes, while the ±75mm variant suits steady-state guiding in textile laminating lines, providing flexibility unmatched by single-stroke competitors.
• Real-Time Positioning for Precision Control: The built-in positioning sensor provides 0.02mm accuracy feedback, ensuring precise actuator placement and preventing overshooting. This feature is critical in applications like semiconductor wafer handling, where even minor deviations can damage components, unlike actuators without real-time feedback that rely on open-loop guesswork.
• CAN-Bus Integration for Seamless Automation: Compatible with BEDOOK’s CAN2.0 controllers, the EWD-U800 Series achieves sub-10ms communication latency, enabling synchronized operation with sensors (e.g., WS-UT ultrasonic) and HMIs. This integration reduces setup complexity compared to actuators requiring proprietary interfaces, making it a cornerstone of smart factory ecosystems.
• Rugged U-Shaped Design: The compact U-shaped structure minimizes overall length while maximizing rigidity, ensuring stable operation at high speeds (20mm/s). Unlike bulkier designs, the EWD-U800 fits into tight spaces in existing machinery, reducing retrofit costs for manufacturers upgrading from older, less efficient actuators.
• Multi-Protection System: Built-in over-current, over-voltage, and thermal protection safeguards the actuator in harsh environments, such as near furnaces in metal processing or high-humidity zones in paper mills. Competitors’ actuators without such protections are prone to premature failure, leading to costly downtime, while the EWD-U800 maintains reliability over extended operations.
