> **Executive summary:** A heavy-duty horizontal coil line wraps coils flat on a through-feed conveyor while a **downward vertical wrapper** covers each coil from above, with no turning step between feeding and wrapping. This page explains how the arrangement works, the published OD and weight range it covers, where it stops being the right fit, and what to send when you ask for a line to be sized.

What This Configuration Is
A horizontal coil wrapping line is a through-feed conveyor that keeps the coil flat while the wrap station works on it from above. In this family the conveyor is paired with a downward vertical wrapper: a ring that travels down over the flat coil and applies film over the top and side walls.
The arrangement keeps the coil flat throughout the load, wrap, and discharge sequence. The product series and its parameters are published on the [Coil Packing Machine](https://www.fhopepack.com/Coil_packing_machine.html) and [Horizontal Coil Wrapping Machine](https://www.fhopepack.com/horizontal-coil-wrapping-machine.html) pages.
How the Wrap Runs
On the through-feed, a steel coil lies flat at the wrap station, the ring is positioned over the coil from above, and the coil leaves at conveyor height while the next coil indexes in. Film is applied while the ring travels down and around the pack surface, covering the top face and the side walls.
The video on this page shows the horizontal coil line with its downward vertical wrapper, which is the pattern this machine family repeats for each coil.
Why It Suits Heavy Coils
Coils that can be wrapped flat gain two practical advantages in this layout. Lying flat keeps the center of gravity low, so the pack rides steadily on the line during wrapping, without a turning step. The downward wrapper then positions the ring from above across the top and side walls. This is our engineering reading of the arrangement: the flat through-feed provides a direct load-to-wrap-to-discharge path.
Published Capacity and Coil Fit
The figures below are the product-range reference FHOPE publishes for this horizontal series. They are published capacity, not readings taken from a single demonstration, and exact sizing is configured per project review.
| Horizontal line series reference | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Coil OD model ranges | 600-1000 / 800-1200 / 1000-1500 mm |
| Max coil weight (heavy-duty) | 50 t |
| Minimum cycle time | 30 s |
| Certified build | CE; ISO 9001:2015 |
| Published installed base (FHOPE) | 500+ units |
Limits and Alternatives
This configuration is the right starting point when your coil can stay flat on a conveyor and your OD and unit weight sit inside the published bands.
It becomes a weaker match when your process already handles coils eye-vertical and needs wrapping through the eye. It also fits poorly when you must up-end or turn coils upstream or downstream in any case,
In those cases a vertical eye-through wrapper is often the more honest fit. Our engineers will say so rather than force a horizontal line.
Často kladené otázky k inženýrství
Q: Which published OD band covers my coil?
A: Confirm the band that fully encloses your maximum coil OD: 600-1000 mm, 800-1200 mm, or 1000-1500 mm in outer diameter. Border dimensions are settled during project review.
Q: Does this line suit coils that arrive eye-vertical?
A: It wraps coils that stay flat on the conveyor. For an eye-vertical flow, a vertical eye-through wrapper wraps through the eye without turning; tell us your handling flow and we will point to the matching machine.
Q: What drives the cycle time?
A: The product page quotes a 30 s minimum cycle for the heavy-duty series as a published reference. Your real rate depends on coil weight and film pattern, so confirm it during project review.
Q: What do you need to size a line for us?
A: Send your coil OD and weight ranges, a layout drawing, and target output per shift. We can return a proposal within 48 hours.
Q: Which safety standards apply for CE markets?
A: The standards that apply depend on the destination market. For CE markets, ISO 12100 sets the risk-assessment method, and EN 415-10 covers the safety requirements of packaging machines. Confirm the guarding and control scheme with the builder for your market.
Q: Do I need an up-ending step for this line?
A: In this layout the coil stays flat on the through-feed conveyor through loading, processing, and discharge, with no up-ending step between stations. If coils must stand for eye-through wrapping, that is a different machine family.

Kontrolní seznam pro výběr
To check a heavy-duty horizontal line against your coil plan, work through this short list:
1. List your coil OD and unit weight ranges.
2. Submit your layout drawing.
3. Receive a proposal within 48 hours.
4. Book a site survey.
Write to info@fhopepack.com and our engineers will match the wrap solution to your coil range, or tell you plainly which machine does not fit.
