CUT-TO-LENGTH LINE:
• The Storage Turnstile provides extra coil storage at the point of operation and reduces process downtime.
• The floor-type Coil Loading Car transfers coils from the Turnstile, or customer’s crane, to the Uncoiler fast and efficiently
• Uncoiler Mandrel feeds the slitting line under controlled back tension.
• The Driven Snubber Hold Down Roll prevents outer wraps from unwinding, and assists in feed-up to the Leveler.
• The Automatic Edge Control maintains edge trim automatically by positioning the Uncoiler.
• The Peeler allows back-bending of the lead edge of the coil, to remove coil set, and threads it into the Squaring Guides without manual handling.
• The Squaring Guides allow for easy hands free centering of the strip into the Leveler or Flattener.
• The Leveller or Straightener levels the strip, and corrects shape, at close tolerances.
• An Auxiliary Control Station provides the operator with push-button control at the entry end for feeding and threading operations.
• Catenary Guides provide loop curvature within the yield set limits of the material as specified.
• The Looping Pit provides for continuous coil strip feed while the strip is stopped and cut to proper length.
• Auto-Track Feed Rolls automatically feed, measure and align strip at speeds up to 60 meters per minute.
• The master control station gives the operator push-button control of the entire Cut-To-Length line, including speed and tension.
• TIMKO’s accurate Shear effortlessly cuts strip up to 16 mm thick.
• The Stacker accepts cut sheets from the Shear for automatic stacking, incorporating side and end tamping for uniformity.
• Automatic Pack Receiving Table receives the individual sheets from the Stacker with drop-arms at a uniform position as the pack builds down.
• Stacker Run-Out Conveyor accepts stacked sheets ready for a crane or further conveying to warehousing location
