Introduction
SPW is the solution to closed-loop center winders (with loadcell or dancer trim) to produce constant tension throughout
the roll. It provides the standard features required by a center winder including: Diameter Calculation with diameter
memory and preset, Tension and Taper, PID for tension or dancer position control, Over/Under Winding, etc.
Additional features provide Stall Tension, Tension Boost, Web Break Detection, Current Memory, and Inertia
Compensation. SPW can control unwinds or rewinds for single spindle and turret winders.
The function block can be used with the following SSD Drives AC and DC drives:
590L
590SPL
620L
584SV, 590+, and 690+ with a LINK Techbox
Other LINK solutions are available to meet other common application requirements and are documented by their
individual manuals.

Description
This section describes the operation of the functions in the SPW LINK function Block.
DIAMETER CALCULATOR
The roll diameter is calculated by dividing the LINE SPEED by the WINDER SPEED (diameter is always positive and
independent of the polarity of the speeds). The LINE SPEED input should be the actual web speed from the previous
section motor speed (the next section in the case of an unwind). The WINDER SPEED is the spindle motor speed.
Whenever the line is stopped, both the winder speed and line speed are zero. As a result, a preset diameter value (either
Core 1, Core 2 or Ext Diameter) is used on power up and when the PRESET ENABLE is ON. It will be the output value
as long as the minimum speed is not exceeded. Above minimum speed, the calculated diameter is the output. If the
line slows below the minimum speed, the last calculated diameter is used. It will continue to be the output diameter
until the preset diameter is enabled.
MIN DIAMETER is the calculated diameter value at full (100%) line speed and full (100%) winder speed.
The calculated DIAMETER output is filtered. The filter output tracks the diameter when TENSION ENABLE is ON and
Line Speed is above Min Speed, otherwise the diameter is held at its current value.
The diameter filter has a profiled time constant (TC) determined by the winder speed and the filter profiler. The profiler
enables a smaller filter at high line speeds and small cores when the change in diameter is fast and a larger filter at
larger diameters for stability.
The filter profiler has a FILTER MAX TC at 0% winder speed, FILTER MID TC at FILTER MID SPEED, and FILTER MIN
TC at 100% winder speed.
INERTIA COMPENSATION
The SPW function block calculates the torque required to accelerate the mechanical inertia. It is composed of two parts,
fixed and variable inertia. The FIXED INERTIA is the inertia of the motor, gearbox and core. The VARIABLE INERTIA
is the inertia of the roll and a WIDTH input is available for setting the web width. The total inertia (Inertia Comp) is
multiplied by the scaled acceleration rate to produce the torque demand and the polarity is set by the OVER/UNDER
selection.
Accelerating a rewind requires additional torque in the same direction as the tension producing torque whereas an
unwind requires accelerating torque in the opposite direction to the tension torque. The Master Ramp function block
supplies the acceleration rate and connects to the RATE input. If the Master Ramp is not being used, the line speed can
be connected to the RATE SP input. The RATE SP input is differentiated to produce a rate.
When the WINDER SPEED exceeds the BASE SPEED the current demand is increased to compensate for the reduced
field flux to maintain constant torque demand. This is not required with the 620L or 690+ Vector drive so the BASE
SPEED parameter should be left at 100% even when an extended speed range is used.
START STOP
The SPW function block includes logic for START, STOP and JOG with a DRIVE START output to the drive. The drive
READY latches the START and resets the START LATCH in the event of a drive fault, program stop, coast stop, or the
STOP input. An M-START input is provided for a maintained start from a PLC or for starting using ConfigEd in Run
time mode.

Chapter 2
Description
SPEED DEMAND
A simple ramp in SPW uses the LINE SPEED SP or JOG SPEED to calculate the SPEED DEMAND. The ramp time is
determined by the SPEED DELTA which is the percentage change per update. For example, if the LINE SPEED SP
comes from the Master Ramp function block, the update is 100mS. Thus if the SPEED DELTA is set to 2%, the ramp
output will change at 2% per 100mS and would take 5 seconds to change 100%.
The ramped speed is summed with the closed-loop trim from the PID scaled by the range. Range, selected by
EXTENSIBLE WEB, is either the RANGE NON-EXTN or RANGE EXTN settings. The combined speed demand is
divided by the diameter to produce the SPEED DEMAND to the drive.
The polarity of SPEED DEMAND is determined by the OVER-UNDER selection; it is positive for Over, when OVERUNDER = True.
The SPEED DEMAND is triggered by the FEEDBACK to the PID; thus there must be a regularly updated signal
connected to FEEDBACK to obtain a SPEED DEMAND output. An update rate of 30 to 50 mS is recommended.
PID & GAIN PROFILERS

The PID provides Proportional, Integral and Derivative control. It supplies the closed-loop trim to the speed demand to
control the web tension.
Note. See the SIGNALP::PID function block data sheet in Appendix for the block diagram, transfer
function and functional description of the PID.
The PID calculates an output whenever the FEEDBACK input receives an input. If the PID ENABLE is disabled, the
output is zero.
The Proportional and Derivative terms and the drive speed loop gain via the DRIVE P GAIN output are controlled by
gain profilers.
The gain profilers provide increasing gain as a function of increasing diameter. The Drive P Gain modifies the speed
loop gain to compensate for the increased roll inertia as the diameter increases. The PID Proportional Gain profiles can
vary the PID Proportional Gain as a function of diameter. The Derivative Gain profile can be used with dancer position
control applications to provide damping at large diameters.

Figure 1 - System Response to a Step-function Input
In each gain profiler, the Min Gain term is a percentage of the Max Gain term. The default Min Gain setting of 100%
provides constant gain, equal to Max Gain, throughout the diameter range. The Exponent term determines how quickly
the gain falls off as the diameter decreases. At the minimum setting of 1, the profiling is linear. At the maximum
setting, 10, maximum gain occurs at maximum diameter and drops of very quickly as diameters decrease.

Description
Figure 2 - Gain Profiler
WEB BREAK DETECTOR

The web break detector monitors the FEEDBACK signal, comparing it to the WB THRESHOLD setting.
WB THRESHOLD is set just below minimum tension for loadcell feedback or to the dancer slack limit for dancer
feedback. If FEEDBACK is less than WB THRESHOLD, the diameter is held at the current value and the WEB BREAK
output goes low indicating a web break. WB DELAY sets the web break delay timer that eliminates nuisance trips.
The WEB BREAK output is overridden when STALL ENABLE is enabled.
UP TO SPEED DETECTOR
The up to speed detector compares the actual line speed with the winder speed multiplied by diameter. When they are
the same, within the UTS THRESHOLD, the UP TO SPEED output goes high.
TENSION DEMAND
The Tension Demand section modifies the tension setpoint for taper, stall tension, tension boost and a tension demand ramp.
Taper
The Tension Demand can be modified by one of two Taper profiles. Linear Taper linearly reduces the TENSION SP as
the diameter increases. Hyperbolic Taper reduces the TENSION SP more quickly near the core and less as the diameter
approaches the full roll.
Stall Tension
Stall tension is a reduced tension used when the line is stopped.
When STALL ENABLE is high, the tension demand is STALL TENSION if STALL SELECT is Fixed, or STALL
TENSION multiplied by the TENSION SP if STALL SELECT is Proportional. For example, if the TENSION SP is 80%
and the STALL TENSION is 50%, then the tension demand at stall is 50% if the STALL SELECT is Fixed or 40% if
Proportional.
2-3
Chapter 2
Description
Tension Boost
Tension boost increases the tension demand when BOOST ENABLE is high. BOOST SELECT has Fixed and
Proportional settings similar to Stall. The fixed or proportional boost is added to the TENSION SP.
Tension Demand Ramp

The Tension Demand Ramp has a TENSION DELTA that sets the rate. The delta is the output change per update where
the update is the TENSION TICK TIME, which is normally set to 300mS. For example, if the TENSION DELTA is 10%,
TENSION DEMAND can change 10% in 300mS. This setting would require three seconds for a 100% tension change.
Tension Demand and Dancer Loading

The TENSION DEMAND output is the tension demand modified by the taper, stall, boost and ramp.
With a loadcell, the TENSION DEMAND is connected to the PID Setpoint for a winder.
With a dancer, the PID setpoint is the dancer position setpoint which will be a fixed value of typically 50% for mid
position. The loading on the dancer sets the web tension. To control the tension, the DANCER LOADING output is
connected via an analog output to an E/P converter that sets the air pressure to load the dancer. The latched TENSION
ENABLE input controls the DANCER LOADING output. It permits two DANCER LOADING outputs to control one
dancer for a twin-turret winder. The TENSION ENABLE for each drive is connected to the other drives OTHER
ENABLE input to switch the control for the dancer. DANCER CAL provides scaling of the DANCER LOADING output
to adjust the desired maximum tension.
CURRENT MEMORY
This function provides short term open-loop tension control by sampling the motor torque and then setting the motor
torque at the memorized value. This can be used during transients or when the closed-loop feedback is temporarily
isolated from the roll such as during a transfer on an unwind.
The motor current (torque for the 620L or 690+) is filtered and fed to a Track and Hold. The current value is held by
MEMORY HOLD or MEMORY ENABLE. MEMORY ENABLE also changes the drive from speed control to torque
control by adding an OVERSPEED to speed demand and setting the current limit clamp to the memorized value.
Current boost is available, either fixed or proportional set by CM BOOST SELECT, enabled by the CM BOOST
ENABLE.
The positive or negative current limit clamp is selected by the REWIND-UNWIND and OVER-UNDER selections. When
the Current Memory is not enabled the positive and negative current limits are at the default 200%. The 590L Current
Scaler must be set at 100% to give the correct scaling, but the Main Current limit can be set as required to limit the
maximum current, typically at 125%.
With the 620L or 690+ Vector drive, the POSITIVE CLAMP and NEGATIVE CLAMP outputs connect to the positive and
negative torque limits respectively.
Note. The drive must be set for independent positive and negative clamps. See Chapter 3 for the proper
settings.

Chapter 3 Using SPW

BASICS
Scaling
LINK uses a value range of -1 to +1, normally displayed as -100.00% to +100.00%. To interface with the drive, a
Speed value of 1 in LINK is equivalent to 120% in the drive and is displayed as 120% in the SPW function block.
Similarly a Current or Torque value of 1 in LINK is equivalent to 200% in the drive and is displayed as 200% in
the SPW function block.
590+ and 590 (DC Drive)

The SPW function block controls the Positive and Negative Current clamps (in the current memory mode) in the 590
DC drive and the BASE SPEED parameter sets the compensation for the field range (for the inertia compensation). The
Current Scaler must be set to 100%, as this scales the clamps, but the Main Current limit may be set as required.
BIPOLAR CLAMPS must be enabled.
690+ and 620 (AC Drive)

With a 690+ or 620 Vector drive, the SPW function block controls the Positive and Negative Torque Limits.
SYMMETRIC TQ LIMIT must be false. Since torque is controlled directly, the BASE SPEED parameter is left at the
100% default, as additional compensation above base speed is not required. The Main Torque limit and the Current
limit can be set as required.
Tension Enable
The SPW function block has two modes of operation for controlling twin-turret winders.
With the TENSION ENABLE disabled, the drive is speed controlled with the speed compensated by the roll diameter to
provide the roll surface speed matched to line speed. This also provides jog with constant surface speed. In this mode
the diameter can be preset. It is used when the web is not connected to the winder.
When the TENSION ENABLE is enabled and PID ENABLE is enabled, the closed-loop trim PID trim maintains tension
or dancer position. The diameter is calculated as the roll builds up (or builds down for an unwind).
QUICK SET UP
This sections covers a basic single-spindle rewind with loadcell or dancer feedback. It requires the user to have DSD or
ConfigEd configuration software to program the SPW function block and make the connections to the drive as part of a
LINK network.

Chapter 3 Using SPW
Running Checks
This requires ConfigEd run time(SAM) to set and monitor the SPW function block and the drive.
1.
Check that the winder is safe to run and that E-stop is reset.
2.
Fit an empty core onto the winder. Do NOT splice a web onto the core or start the line.
3.
Verify that DIAMETER in SPW is at core, the diameter preset. Set TENSION SP to 50%.
4.
Start the winder in JOG. The winder should run at 5% speed in the correct direction. If the direction is
wrong, change OVER-UNDER to Under.
5.
Change the JOG SPEED to 50%. Check the core surface speed, it should be at 50% of maximum rated web
speed. Adjust the speed, if required, using the Tach or Encoder cal in the drive as appropriate.
6.
Use START to enable the TENSION ENABLE while maintaining the Jog. With the TENSION SP at 50% and
no web, the speed should increase.
7.
Reduce TENSION SP to zero and apply force to the loadcell or move the dancer to the tight position. The
winder should slow down.
8.
Remove the JOG and START; the drive should switch off.
9.
Enable the PRESET ENABLE. The DIAMETER should be preset to core.
10. Set the JOG SPEED back to 5%.

This completes the Quick set up. The winder will now control tension but the dynamic performance may need
optimizing.
Setting Inertia Compensation Using Speed Control

For this method of measuring the inertia compensation the drive is run independently of the SPW tension control. The
drive is run in speed control using the drive ramp to control acceleration and deceleration. Typically the drive will be
started and the speed demand to the ramp, set via SAM.
Note. Where load is specified, read current demand for the 590L or 590+ and read torque demand for the
620L or 690+.
Note. Where Base Speed is specified, this is the actual base speed (% of max speed) at the calibrated
maximum volts, not necessarily the motor nameplate base speed. This is the same as the BASE SPEED
parameter in SPW.
Inertia Compensations
Determine the fastest Master Ramp ramp time for the machine that maintains tension control. For example, if the run
time is 30 seconds and the stop time is 20 seconds, use 20 seconds; ignore the E-stop settings.
Set the RATE CAL in SPW to 20% Ramp time. This is a calibration setting and still permits the Master Ramp times
to be reduced (up to 25%) or increased (no limit). For example, if the fastest specified ramp time is 20 seconds, set
RATE CAL to 20% 20 = 1%.
3-3
Chapter 3 Using SPW

Fixed Inertia
1.
Install a core.
2.
Set the drive ramp time, accel and decel to the time used for the Rate Cal above.
Without a Field Range

3.
Start the drive at 1% speed and record the load and then set ramp speed demand to 100%. Read the change in
load during acceleration. At full speed the load should return to a steady value; record the load.
4.
Set the ramp speed demand back to 1% and read the deceleration load change. The load at 1% speed should
return to the same as recorded above.
5.
The acceleration and deceleration load changes should be equal and opposite. This value is the Fixed Inertia
compensation.
For example, the load at 1% speed = 0.5% and the load at 100% speed = 2%. When accelerating the load starts
at 4% and increases to 5.5% just before full speed. This is 3.5% change. Decelerating the load starts at -1.5%
and decreases to -3.0% just before zero speed. This is a 3.5% change. The average of the acceleration and
deceleration load is the value for Fixed Inertia.
With a Field Range

6.
The procedure is exactly the same as without a field range, above, except the high speed demand must be
limited to base speed (preferably just below).
For example, the load at 1% speed = 0.5% and the load at base speed = 2%. When accelerating the load starts
at 4% and increases to 5.5% just before base speed. This is 3.5% change. Decelerating the load starts at -1.5%
and decreases to -3.0% just before zero speed. This is a 3.5% change. The average of the acceleration and
deceleration load is the value for Fixed Inertia.
Variable Inertia
Determine the roll build up ratio. This is the maximum full roll diameter divided by the core diameter. The ramp rates
and speed demand must be modified by the build up. The ramp time is multiplied by the build up and the speed
demand divided by the build up.
For this example the Core OD = 6, the Full Roll diameter = 48and the Ramp Time = 20 sec.
The build up is 48/6 = 8.
The drive accel and decel ramp time is set to 20 8 = 160sec.
The high speed demand is 100 8 = 12.5%. This speed will be equal to or less than base speed so no special procedure
is required for a field range.
1.
Fit a full roll or as near a full roll as possible (not larger). Measure the actual size; for the correction factor
for less than full roll, see later section.
2.
Start the drive at 1% speed, then set ramp speed demand to value calculated above. Read the change in load
during acceleration. Set the ramp speed demand back to 1% and read the change in load during deceleration.
Take the average of the accel/decel load change values similarly to the Fixed Inertia procedure.
3.
Subtract the Fixed inertia component from the full roll accel/decel load change and then correct for the roll
size.
Variable Inertia = (load change value from Step 2 (Fixed Inertia Build up)) (100% Roll Size%)3
The following example has a build up = 8, Fixed inertia = 3.5% and Roll size = 90% of a full roll. The measured load
change is 12%.
Variable Inertia = (12 (3.5 8)) (100% 90%)3 = 15.86%
Use this value for SPW Variable Inertia.
If the winder uses a gearbox with multiple ratios or uses one or two motors, it will be necessary to measure the
compensations for each motor and gearbox ratio combination. The different compensations must be switched into the
SPW for each combination.

This function block is made up of five sub-function blocks: "Diameter Calculator & Web

"Current Memory". Each of these are described below. Unless otherwise noted, all
parameters are persistent, can be preset, and have set and get methods. All logic

outputs have built in Logic Senders.
Diameter Calculator & Web Break Detector

This block performs the Diameter calculation used by the other sub-function blocks.
Simply, the diameter is calculated by dividing the absolute value of the Line Speed by
the absolute value of the Winder Speed. This result is scaled by the Build Up
parameter1. This result goes to a filter block who's output can be held and is then
clamped giving the final diameter output. Diameter Filter is used to set the filter rate
and the diameter input to the filter is held when Preset Enable is false and Diameter
Hold is true, or when Preset Enable is false and Tension Enable is false or Line Speed
is less than Min Speed. Note that only the input diameter is held, the filter output may
continue to change in the held state until it matches the held diameter. Min Diameter is
the minimum diameter value for the the clamp. The Diameter output will not go below
this value.
It is also possible to use a Diameter Preset (Core 1, Core2 and External Diameter,
selected by Core Select and Ext Dia Select). The Diameter Preset is used as both the
input and output of the filter if Preset Enable is true and Tension Enable is false or
Line Speed is less than Min Speed. The Diameter Preset is also loaded into the filter
whenever the module is restarted.
The Web Break Detector takes the difference between the computed diameter and the
previously computed diameter and based on Rewind-Unwind and Forward-Reverse,
adds or subtracts it to an internal accumulator2 . When the internal accumulator is
greater than WB Threshold, the Web Break output becomes true, otherwise it is false.
The internal accumulator can be reset to zero by either WB Reset going true or Tension
Enable going false.
Diameter Tick Time can only be preset and specifies the rate at which the diameter is
calculated.
Up to Speed Detector
This block compares a computed line speed (uses Winder Speed, Diameter and Build
Up) with Line Speed SP. If the absolute value of the difference is is less than UTS
Threshold, the Up to Speed output is set true.
Tension Demand
1
The Link system uses a normalized numbering system. All values are represented as numbers between -1 and 1.
When the result of a calculation would be a value outside this range, the result is saturated to -1 or 1 so that it will
be a legal value. Thus, many intermediate calculations need to be scaled to prevent saturation.
2 The accumulator is clamped so that it never goes below 0. The sum added in is clamped to WB Threshold/4.
HA354464 issue 2
page 2
SSD LINK
This block computes a tension demand. The first part of the tension demand calculation
involves computing a taper term. This term is based on Diameter, Taper SP, the
selected core (Core 1 or Core 2), and the type of Taper Selected (see drawings for
details). The taper term is multiplied by Tension SP, and if Stall Enable and Boost
Enable are false, is the input to the ramp. If Stall Enable is true, this term is multiplied
by Stall Tension and input into the ramp if Stall Select is proportional, otherwise, just
the Stall Tension term is presented to the ramp. If Boost Enable is true and Stall
Enable is false, a boost is added before the value is input to the ramp. The amount of
boost is based on Boost Select. If it is fixed, the amount of boost will be Boost. If it is
proportional, the amount will Boost multiplied by the tension term. Tension Delta
controls the ramp rate and specifies the amount the ramp may change each Tension
Tick Time (the rate at which tension demand is calculated). The ramp output is also the
Tension Demand output. The tension demand can be multiplied by Dancer Cal to
compute the Dancer Loading output. This message is sent only when Tension Enable
is true and Other Enable is false. This condition also sets the In Tension output.
Speed Demand
This block calculates the Speed Demand output. The Start and Jog select wether the
Line Speed or the Jog Speed is input into the ramp. If either Start or Jog is true, Run
Delta is use as the ramp rate, otherwise, Stop Delta is used for the stop rate and the
ramp input is zero. The ramp output is divided by Build Up (see Diameter Calculator),
then the scaled PID trim is added and finally it is divided by the signed Diameter
(determined by Over-Under) to produce the Speed Demand output.
See the G Profiler/Generic data sheet for a description on how the PID output is
generated. This output is multiplied by the selected Range and added as a trim to the
Speed Demand being calculated.
Current Memory
This block calculates the Current Demand output. This output is simply the filtered
value of the Armature Current input (Memory Filter specifies the filter time constant)
which has CM Boost (selected by CM Boost Select) added to it and is then passed
through a track and hold block. The hold function is enabled by either the Memory
Hold input being true or the Memory Enable input being in the enable state and Web
Break (see "Diameter Calculator & Web Break Detector" description) being false.
