In web tension control systems, it is essential that the signal from the load cells reaches the tension controller accurately and reliably. Lynx is a microprocessor-driven digital amplifier for load cells, designed to deliver precision and reliability in web tension control applications. Compact and user-friendly, Lynx sets a new benchmark in signal amplification by reducing processing times through its advanced hardware and software architecture. Lynx is available in single channel or dual channel (Lynx-DS) versions, the latter model supports up to four load cells, two per channel, ensuring seamless integration with a wide range of industrial setups. Offering a sampling frequency of 8 kHz and a 12-bit resolution, Lynx provides stable, high-accuracy tension measurement essential for flexographic, rotogravure, slitter, and other laminate processing machinery. Its intuitive interface features four buttons for calibration and programming, along with a large 4-digit display that shows the selected function or tension value. Capable of handling two load cell stations simultaneously, Lynx offers enhanced flexibility and ease of use. Integration into existing systems is very easy with Lynx DS-L load cells amplifier version, that offers advanced connectivity options such as fieldbus, ProfiNET, and EtherCAT. The amplifier can communicate effortlessly with PLCs or PCs, enabling comprehensive, real-time monitoring of tension data. Additionally, Lynx accommodates both voltage (mV) and current (mA) inputs, catering to various application requirements.
