Pushbutton Tooling Lock-Up eliminates arbor lock nuts.

The Tensioners can be engaged together or employed independently. The Pad Tensioner doubles as a thin gauge strip threading device. It travels on rails and transports slit strips from the Slitter Inspection Table across the looping pit to the Roll Tensioner. The Roll Tensioner employs special coated rolls coupled to pneumatic brakes to generate critical surface coil tension. Top and bottom rolls are driven for strip threading. Motorized anti-backlash screw jacks with digital electronic position readouts provide precise roll squeeze force. A quick-change underarm separator guides the slit strips from the looping pit into the Tensioners.

Tandem Traveling Pnuematic Pad and Non-Marking Roll Tensioners.

Thin gauge narrow strips guided into the Tensioners.

Exit End: The Exit Shear, Pass Line Roll, and Overarm are mounted on an Exit Unit installed adjacent to the Recoiler. The compact high pass line arrangement places the Exit Pass Line Roll close to the Recoiler, which results in superb strip tracking and straight wall coils. The Overarm Separator is attached to the Exit Unit frame and is supported from inboard and outboard sides. The rigid support eliminates Overarm deflection that causes coil side-wall scuffing and oscillation. An Overarm side adjust feature allows the operator to adjust for minor Overarm set-up misalignment without having to make a new set-up.

Recoiler: Coils are wound onto the 16" diameter rewind drum or onto cardboard cores. Speed Load Fillers that load or unload in one-minute are employed to produce 20" ID coils. The rewind drum is constructed from custom forged 2" thick segments heat-treated to Rc 55. A 3" diameter solid steel gripper bar lock slit strips against a heat-treated serrated steel anvil.

Close coupled Pass Line Roll provides excellent strip tracking to the Recoiler.

Recoiler produces 16" and 20" ID coils with or without cardboard cores.

Winding 50-cuts 5/8" wide x .007" into tight, perfectly slit coils.

Rotary Deck Exit Coil Car: An Exit Coil Car unloads coils from the Recoiler and transports them to the Pack Line. The Car has a unique rotary V-deck that can position coils for CW or CCW orintation on the shipping pallet. The Car is operated from a wireless radio control.

Quality, Performance, Bullet-Proof Reliability, know-how from building nearly 600 Slitting Lines, plus superb technical support made Berlin Metals' selection of a Braner/Loopco Turret Head™ Slitting Line over all others a "no-brainer".
