Coil Packing Line Site Preparation: Power, Air and Floor

Description More Data

## Coil Packing Line Site Preparation: Power, Air and Floor

A [coil packing line](https://www.fhopepack.com/Automatic-Coil-Packing-Line/) can only be commissioned on time if the site is ready when the equipment arrives. This page lists the site conditions we specify for our lines, covering power, compressed air, the floor and the room around the equipment, so your team can prepare in parallel with manufacturing.

## Power Supply

| Item | Our standard |
| --- | --- |
| Line power supply | 380 V, 3 phase, 50 Hz (400 V/60 Hz for export on request; other voltages such as 415 V 4P 50 Hz have been built) |
| Example consumption | Cold-rolled coil strapping line: 15 kW |
| Example motors | Down-ender conveyor approx. 0.45–2.2 kW; down-ender horn travel 3.0 kW |
| Control | Siemens PLC (AB or Mitsubishi on request); HMI chosen per project (Mitsubishi, Siemens, MCGS or Delta); inverter soft start/stop |

The electrical equipment is housed in closed switch cabinets rated IP20, which need a clean, dry indoor location. Cabinet width depends on the machine: about 800 mm for small standalone machines and 1200–1600 mm for medium machines. A typical cabinet is 600 mm deep and 2200 mm high on a 200 mm base. Plan floor space for the cabinet row near the line. On large lines, the cabinet system is split into transport units no wider than 3600 mm.

*Switch cabinets rated IP20 need a clean, dry indoor location, with floor space planned for the cabinet row near the line.*

## Compressed Air

| Item | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Supply pressure | 0.6–0.8 MPa |
| Air quality | Clean and dry |
| Example consumption | Strapping line: about 500 Nl per strapping cycle at 0.6 MPa |

Size the compressed-air supply for the peak demand of the air-intensive stations at their cycle frequency. On strapping lines, multiply the per-cycle consumption by the number of strapping cycles per hour.

## Civil Works, Floor Foundations and Pits

- **Installation site:** indoors, on level ground
- **Floor:** we assess the floor for each machine size. Apart from heavy-duty equipment, most of our machines work on an ordinary poured concrete slab with no special requirement; some specific equipment may need a foundation.
- **Vibration and heat:** no intense vibration and no intense heat source next to the machines
- **Foundations and pits:** coil cars on rails, or pit-type coil cars, need foundations and pits. After design, we supply the pit and foundation drawings and requirements, and the customer builds the civil works.
- **Hydraulics:** down-enders use a hydraulic station (lift and tilt), so plan space and a drip-safe area for it.

![](https://www.fhopepack.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/coil-wrapping-machine-bottleneck-diagnosis-in-factory-setting.webp)

*Plan enough room around the equipment for operators, maintenance access, and auxiliary units such as hydraulic stations.*

## Ambient Conditions

| Item | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Ambient temperature | 0–40 °C for the steel coil packing line (extended ranges such as -10 to +45 °C on request) |
| Altitude | ≤ 2000 m |
| Noise level of the line | ≤ 75 dB |

![](https://www.fhopepack.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/shanghai-fhope-coil-packing-line-manufacturing-factory9.webp)

*Standard ambient conditions are 0–40 °C, up to 2000 m altitude, and a line noise level of no more than 75 dB.*

The image shows a coil packing line on a manufacturing factory floor. Standard ambient conditions are 0–40 °C, up to 2000 m altitude, and a line noise level of no more than 75 dB.

## Data and Labeling Points

If the line reads coil data from the slitting line or a barcode reader, or shares packing data with ERP/MES, plan the network connection to the line's industrial PC or PLC (for example, Profinet).

## Who Prepares What

| Task | Usually done by |
| --- | --- |
| Equipment, cabinets, field wiring, PLC program | FHOPE |
| Conceptual foundation drawings | FHOPE |
| Civil works, foundations, pits | Customer |
| Power and compressed air to the agreed take-over points | Customer |
| Lifting equipment during installation | Customer |
| Installation supervision and commissioning | FHOPE engineers |

*Review the responsibility split together before shipment, so civil works and utilities reach the agreed take-over points before the equipment arrives.*

## FAQ

**What air pressure does the line need?** 0.6–0.8 MPa of clean, dry compressed air.

**What voltage do you build for?** 380 V/50 Hz as standard. Other supplies, such as 400 V/60 Hz or 415 V, are built to order.

**Do I need a special floor?** Usually not. Apart from heavy-duty equipment, an ordinary poured concrete slab is enough; we confirm this per machine, and our layout drawings state the foundation requirements.

**Does the line need a pit?** Only if the layout uses pit-type coil cars. We provide the foundation concept drawings.

**What ambient temperature is allowed?** 0–40 °C as standard; extended ranges such as -10 to +45 °C on request.
