ABSTRACT:
In systems for taking up elongated strips on a take-up device, such as taking up film onto a film platter, it is desirable to have an arrangement for controlling the speed of the take-up device in accordance with the amount of slack in the strip. To accomplish this, a slack indicating means, such as a film roller, is located between a strip supply means and the take-up device so that the strip passes over it. The slack indicating means has a magnet coupled to it. The position of the slack indicating means along a predetermined path is determined by the effect of the magnet on the operative state of a plurality of magnetically actuated switches located along the predetermined path. The operative state of these switches, in turn, controls the speed of the take-up device by controlling a resistive circuit or other control means.
