Résumé. If your 2026 budget question is “which coil packing line is the best,” the answer is not a single machine — it is the one that matches your coil class (slit, standard, heavy PP-GI, or non-ferrous) and your required scope (wrap only, or wrap + strap + weigh + stack). [1]
This summary maps FHOPE’s published line options for those two inputs, gives the published size and rate references for each, and ends with a checklist you can hand to a builder. All figures below are manufacturer-published references, not per-project guarantees.
The embedded video accompanies this summary as context. The ratings, sizes and rates below come from the linked FHOPE product pages; the clip does not establish a coil rating or confirm which stations are included in an order.

What makes a line “top” in 2026
A year-end list of “top coil packing lines” is only useful if it names the boundary of every entry. FHOPE’s coil-line family is organized by process and coil class, not by a single headline tonnage. The practical ranking questions for a buyer are:
- What is my coil envelope — diameter, inner diameter, width, weight?
- What must happen after wrapping — strapping, weighing, labeling, stacking, or dispatch?
- What throughput does my slitting or finishing line actually feed?
Answering those three picks a line better than asking “which machine is the most powerful.” The rest of this summary turns the three answers into a line choice.
Line map: start with coil class, then scope
| If your coil class is… | Use FHOPE’s published… | Scope drivers to add |
|---|---|---|
| Slit coil (100–3000 kg) | Slit coil packaging line | wrapping only, or wrapping + stacking |
| Narrow slit coil (20–350 mm wide) | Automatic slit coil packaging system | down-ending and horn handling for narrow cores |
| Standard steel coil (1–25 t) | Machine à emballer les bobines | add strapping, weighing, stacking per plant |
| Heavy / PP-GI coil (1–30 t) | PP-GI coil packaging line | powered turnstile where eye-vertical banding is needed |
| Copper / non-ferrous coil | Ligne d'emballage de bobines de cuivre | surface-protection handling, lighter class |
Two published facts keep this map honest. A ligne complète joins coil handling, wrapping, strapping and stacking so that slit-coil output flows to the warehouse automatically; a une seule machine covers only the wrapping or strapping step. [1] The table below records figures per station, so a buyer does not mistake a stacker rating for a whole-line rating.
Published references: sizes, rates and throughput
The following values are FHOPE’s published references on the linked product pages; each is a planning input, not a committed order specification.
| Line class | Référence publiée |
|---|---|
| Slit coil line | coil weight 100–3000 kg; OD 900–1400 mm; ID 508 mm; width 15–450 mm; 20–30 coils/h [2] |
| Automatic slit coil packaging system | min coil width 20–350 mm; horn travel about 1800 mm (3.0 kW); down-ending cycle about 60 s; stacking to 6000 kg/pallet [3] |
| Heavy / PP-GI line | engineered for 1–30 t coils; slitting line 20–35 coils/h; wide coil line 5–8 coils/h [4] |
| Cold-roll strapping line | slitting coils 20–40 coils/h; heavy duty 5–8 coils/h; single strap about 35–38 s [5] |
| Copper coil line | OD 600–1000 mm; ID 344–400 mm; width 20–200 mm; up to 500 kg [6] |
| Gamme de machines d'emballage de bobines | coil width 600–2000 mm; OD 900–2200 mm; 1–25 t [7] |
Stations with their own published figures. A full line is built from independent stations, each with its own rating. Published references include a fork-arm stacker rated to about 6 t at 70–120 s per coil with stack heights of 600–1200 mm, and an arm-type stacker with pallet centering of 0–3 mm. [8] A turnstile can be built with 2 or 4 arms, rated to 60 t with a 2000 mm arm length for eye-vertical coil banding. [9]
As a throughput planning guide, FHOPE publishes 20–30 coils/h on the slit coil line and 20–35 coils/h on the PP-GI slitting line. It lists 20–40 coils/h on the cold-roll slitting line, with wide-coil/heavy lines at 5–8 coils/h. [2][4][5] Marketing copy across the line pages also references high throughput up to 60 coils per hour. [2] Your actual rate depends on the coil mix, per-station cycle times, and how the line is fed.
Where a full line earns its cost
A full line pays back where three conditions are true at once. Coils are heavy enough that manual handling is the bottleneck or a safety risk. The packing step is on the critical path of a slitting or finishing line. The plant runs enough shifts to amortize automation.
FHOPE publishes four reasons a full line is chosen. [1] It handles different coil sizes efficiently. It keeps trackable data linked to ERP/MES from packing to stocking. It protects the surface and straps for the transit mode. It keeps people away from heavy coil movements.
Where the plant already runs an ERP or MES system, the line can log each step so a coil’s packing history travels with it. [1] That matters less for a shop wrapping a few coils per day, and more for a service center feeding a warehouse.
When not to buy a full line
Buy a single machine or a shorter line when any of these is true:
- The coil mix is a single, stable size and the shop already handles, stacks, and ships by forklift.
- Planned throughput is a few coils per shift and manual wrapping is not a bottleneck.
- The plant floor has no room, or no need, for a conveyor of wrappers, stackers and gantries.
None of these is a quality judgment — a machine-rated wrapper (coil width 600–2000 mm, OD 900–2200 mm, 1–25 t) [7] is the right scope for many mills. A full line is the right scope specifically when coil flow, data, and labor each justify it. The final scope is configured per project against the plant’s coil envelope and shift plan.
FAQ technique
Q: What coil weight can a 2026 coil packing line actually take? A: It depends on the line class: slit lines are published at 100–3000 kg per coil, the single-machine range at 1–25 t, and the heavy PP-GI class up to about 30 t. [2][7] Pick the class that covers your heaviest coil, then confirm envelope and load ratings per project.
Q: Is “up to 60 coils per hour” a guarantee I will get? A: No. That phrase is marketing copy on several line pages. [2] Published line speeds are 20–30 coils/h (slit), 20–35 (PP-GI slitting), 20–40 (cold-roll slitting) and 5–8 coils/h (wide/heavy). [2][4][5] The guaranteed rate is agreed per project from your coil mix and station cycle times.
Q: Do I need strapping inside the same line as wrapping? A: Only if your transit requires it. Published line groups range from wrapping + stacking to wrapping + strapping + weighing + labeling + pallet distribution. [1] PET or steel strapping provides rigid restraint over long or overseas transit; stretch film alone protects the surface. Specify the strapping per transit route.
Q: How does a turnstile fit into the line? A: A turnstile (2 or 4 arms, rated 60 t, 2000 mm arm length [9]) turns a coil to eye-vertical before banding. It is a station, not a whole line: its rating does not set the wrapper’s rating.
Q: Can controls match my plant standard? A: Yes, by selection. FHOPE offers PLCs from Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Mitsubishi and Omron, with HMIs such as Siemens Comfort, Weinview, Proface and AB PanelView. Drives come from Delta, Schneider, Siemens, Yaskawa and Allen-Bradley, and gear motors from SEW, ABB, Siemens and NORD. [1] The exact set is selected to the plant standard per project.
Liste de contrôle des demandes de prix 2026
Before you invite bids for a 2026 coil packing line, put these in writing:

- Scope: wrap only; wrap + strap; wrap + strap + weigh + label; full line to stacking.
- Throughput target: coils per hour at the packing station, fed from which upstream line.
- Control preference: PLC, HMI, drive and motor brands already standard in your plant.
- Material/transit: stretch film or VCI, and whether strapping must be PP or steel for the routing.
