DX2 Special Purpose Models

 

OPTIC FIBERS -- Model FX2
Large diameter rollers and 100 mm spacing between outer rollers minimize damage to optic fibers and similar materials that cannot withstand a small bending radius.

Standard roller material is Delrin plastic or, optionally, aluminum (L).

Lightweight, low inertia 32 mm diameter rollers for speeds up to 2000 m/min or, optionally, up to 4000 m/min (K).
Model Prefix FX2
Range Code 50 120 400 1000
Tensions (g) 5-50 10-120 10-400 20-1000
The complete model number includes FX2 plus range code, e.g. FX2-120.

 

NARROW WEBS/TAPES -- Model RX2/BX2
Cylindrical rollers are offered in 7, 10, 15, 20, 30, 36, 41, 50 and 100 mm lengths to measure tapes, bands, films and similar materials. Roller length should not exceed 2x the width of the material being measured.
Model Prefix RX2/BX2
Range Code Refer to DX2 ranges
Tensions (g)
NOTE 1: Starting point of low-range instruments will be higher than DX2.

NOTE 2: Models using 50 and 100 mm roller lengths are supplied with a special heavy-duty bracket and use the DXX model designation.
 
Dual-flanged rollers assist in acquiring materials and assure total contact with roller face.

Single-flanged rollers are used for wide webs or when only one material edge is accessible.

 

LIMITED ACCESS SPACE -- Model DX2F
Long, flat fingers and miniature V-grooved rollers are used in applications where there is limited access space or where the running filaments are close together.

22 mm distance between outer rollers permits a narrow access "window" of only 1/2" x 1 - 1/2".

Rollers are rated for speeds up to 900 m/min. or, optionally, up to 2000 m/min (K).

Turned-up outer finger edges guide the running filament into the roller grooves, eliminating snags behind the rollers.
Model Prefix DX2F
Range Code 3 5 12 20 30 40 80 EX 200
Tensions (g) 3-30 5-50 10-120 10-200 20-300 10-400 100-800 10-1000 200-2000
NOTE1: The complete model number includes DX2F plus the range code, e.g. DX2F-12.

NOTE2: Model DX2F is available with the rollers and bracket assembly rotated 90°. Specify models DX2FV

 

TAPES -- Model TX2
Special model where the rollers point away from the operator as the scale is viewed for applications where the access is limited to the front or top of the tape.

Model Prefix RX2/BX2
Range Code Refer to DX2 ranges
Tensions (g)

NOTE: Starting point of low range instruments will be higher than DX2.

 

WARPS -- Model KXB
A reference frame makes it easy to scoop up the selected number of ends for measurement and keeps the unit perpendicular while it rests on the warp. K10, K30 & EX ranges are supplied with a 10 mm sensing pin.

Model Prefix KXB
Range Code K10 K30 EX 200 500
Tensions (g) 5-100 20-300 10-1000 200-2000 400-5000

The complete model number includes KXB plus range code, e.g. KXB-K30. For 200 and 500 models add length of sensing pin, e.g., KXB-200/17.
