Executive summary This clip shows our big coil wrapper, horizontal type. The coil sits on a roller saddle while the ring passes film through the coil eye; the rollers turn the coil so the film covers it all round. The wrapping station moves to the coil so heavy coils do not have to be shifted. The clip shows coils wrapped in white and in blue film.

What the clip shows
| Step | What you see |
|---|---|
| Loading | The coil is placed on the roller saddle |
| Station | The ring station moves along to the coil |
| Wrap | Film passes through the eye as the coil turns |
| Film | White film, then blue film on later coils |
| Unload | The wrapped coil is lifted off |
Why a movable station
- Heavy coils stay put. The station moves, the coil does not.
- Easy loading. The station moves clear of the saddle for crane loading.
- Full cover. Rollers turn the coil while the ring wraps.
- One saddle, many sizes. Saddle and ring are set to your coil range.
Film turns per coil
Worked example (illustrative).
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Coil outer diameter (illustrative) | 1,500 mm |
| Outer circumference, 3.14 × 1,500 | 4,710 mm |
| Film width (illustrative) | 100 mm |
| Overlap (illustrative) | 50% |
| Ring turns per coil revolution, 4,710 ÷ 50 | about 94 |
What we set per coil
| Setting | Depends on |
|---|---|
| Ring size | Coil outer and inner diameter and width |
| Saddle | Coil diameter and weight |
| Overlap | Protection needed |
| Film | Colour and width |
Selection checklist
- Coil outer and inner diameter.
- Coil width.
- Coil weight.
- Coils per hour.
- Film or paper.
- Crane or forklift loading.
Safety
- Keep clear of moving stations.
- Stay outside the fence while the line runs.
- Lock out before clearing a jam.
- For CE markets, the machine is designed to ISO 12100 and EN 415-10.
Engineering FAQ
Q: What is a movable wrapping station? A: The ring station travels to the coil, so heavy coils are not moved during wrapping.
Q: How is film passed through the eye? A: The ring carries the film roll through the coil eye while rollers turn the coil.
Q: How many ring turns does a coil need? A: About 94 ring turns for a 1,500 mm coil at 50% overlap with 100 mm film in the worked example.
Q: Can coloured film be used? A: Yes, white and blue film are shown in the clip.
Q: How are coils loaded? A: By crane or forklift onto the roller saddle.
Q: Which standards apply? A: For CE markets, ISO 12100 and EN 415-10.
