Coil handling - Import export

When you deal with industrial surface treatment and your expertise is the cleaning, brushing, polishing or coating of strip steel, you most likely do not want to spend any worries about the run of the material. That’s where our Winding Lines keep your worries away – because they take care of a safe run! They work with high tension and special monitoring and deflectors to do this, with the result of a clean wound beginning to end. The machine design thus calls for especially high drive power and precision expansion systems; even something so simple as the machine base is designed special to cope with the forces… To control the precision of one layer to the next, we utilize external edge controls and servo-drive the Reels for adjustment. This way we meet the typical low tolerances in this industry – after all, the coil is the product!

If you need two Coil Reels to hold one coil, you need a Heavy-Duty Coil Feed Line above all. One that is designed extremely robust and knows to subdue even materials of highest bounce and largest cross-sections.To ensure this, we have taken no heed to cost savings but went by the maximum principle: 2 Coil Reels with high-performance arbors retain the coils from left and right. 2 x 2 hydraulic arms secure them from top and bottom – each with eight tons pressure force, each with hydraulically driven snubber roll. The loading is done with one central lifting gear built into a super-duty running frame for the V-nest. Hydraulic manipulators with pivoting and bending function support the threading of the material. On the receiving end, a Pre-Straightener with 200mm work rolls takes over, after hydraulic edge guides have ensured central entry. Now, if someone asks us our definition of “heavy-duty”: We find 36.000 kilogram coil weight and 2.

Most Winding Lines process one single coil (single-layer winding). There are however also applications where multiple layers are wound: With this process, the rewinding Coil Reel (Rewinder for short) reverses horizontally and orderly puts one layer beside the other, creating one long coil. This will make sense when narrow slit coil materials of small weight and – depending on their thickness – usually short running lengths would require frequent changeovers. Here, a layer-wound coil provides much longer productive time. The “elongation” by the way is done by butt-welding the coil strip ends. We offer this complete technology – including our own end-joining equipment and an adapted servo layering axis for the Rewinder. For thick strips we build vertical straighteners to correct the frequently occurring camber defect.

Precision handling for heavy loads From end-of-line, through rack handling, to automated storage: Lödige has complete control of all the materials handling processes required in the press shop — including tool handling and systems for improved tool maintenance. Your advantages using Lödige solutions in the press shop: Ergonomic tool maintenance Coil handling up to 40 t Safe provision of pressed components Lifting and tilting tables up to 40 t Connection to pressed component storage Linked materials handling systems

Safety for the workers, no damage to the coils Our practical hoists are easy to operate – for years at a time. On top of that suitable optional equipment is available.

Turn your forklift truck into a crane by simply attaching the load hook onto the fork arm. Coils can safely be pivoted in connection with a Coil Tilting Hook, series T. Coated version (RAL 2000, orangeyellow) or hotdip galvanised.

crane forks easy to adjust to match all sizes of pallets all crane forks meet the requirements of the accident prevention regulation of the trade association quadruple safety against breaking The tines for carrying the load during the loading process tilt upwards if forks with autobalance are used. An unintentional slipout of the load can therefore be ruled out.

material sparing uptake and deposit of coils coil uptake in standing and lying position handover to vertical or horizontal coil reel It is possible to singularize coil stacks as well as to temporarily store them at the production machine in upright or horizontal position. suitable for material widths of up to 500 mm the automatic positioning of the tilt nose guarantees a straightford uptake of the coil. The edge of the material is also treated with more care. The largescale, rounded coil support in the tilt nose prevents the material at the coil eye to be damaged. secure handling with inbuild guide handle, tilt nose automatically slides below the coil coil can be lifted jerkfree because of its unrolling coil nib it is not possible for the coil to slip off during transportation

Coil Cradles are made to help unwind coils in rough production environments. Mostly combined with a straightening unit, they work with narrow and thick materials. Built to last, Coil Cradles offer quite a few advantages Simple handling of even hightensile materials with strong clockspring, short setup times, an elaborate coil handling concept which gives a chance to rewind of unfinished coils. By using serial straightening units, type RMA and RMZ, everything is well fitting. To achieve short mounting times and easy accessibility, the complete machine body features a one piece tiebar design machined with most modern CNC equipment. Coil Cradles, CradleStraighteners and CradleFeederStraighteners thus are very efficient too. Consequently, their compactness, efficiency, safety and operator friendliness melt into a coil handling solution which underlines GSW’s lead in technology. Performance data Up to 8 t coil weight, 700 mm stock width and up to 13mm thickness

Upenders are designed to safely tilt big and heavy coils – either from horizontal into vertical or reversed. This fast and easy coil handling solution gets rid of “adventurous” tilting methods that often will endanger the operator. Chains and other lifting aids which damage the coil rims become obsolete. Upenders allow 90 degrees tilting of coils; Combination machines will also rotate 180 degrees. Both can handle up to 25 tons.

The versatility and and capability of LAWECO products is most notably shown in coil processing systems. In the infeed and outfeed areas, coil lifting carriages primarily handle the coil. In conjunction with various rack systems even complete solutions can be realised. In the stack areas, stationary and movable scissor lift platforms provide the required handling. Here, it is also our goal to respond to the wishes and requirements of our customers and to provide individual solutions. Load bearing capacity up to 150 t Hydraulics with switching or proportional valve technology Movable or stationary With coupling facility With installed materials handling technolog With or without synchronous run control
