Abstract

See full text

Disclosed is a steering control system/method for a process line running a web material including at least two steering units, a downstream and an upstream steering unit. At least one controller is in communication with the downstream and upstream steering unit. The downstream steering unit collects downstream data concerning a downstream position of the web material and sends the downstream data to the controller. The upstream steering unit collects upstream data concerning an upstream position of the web material, and sends the upstream data to the controller. The data may be an actual position of the web material or a position of a frame or a roller of the steering unit. The controller utilizes the downstream data to effect a downstream adjustment of the downstream steering unit. The controller utilizes the downstream data and the upstream data to effect an upstream adjustment of the upstream steering unit.
