Executive summary This clip shows one of our narrow coil packing lines from the workshop overview to the stacker. Coils are strapped at the strapping station, wrapped eye-through in blue film by an orbital ring, and stacked by a blue gantry, while staff check the line. How the gantry builds each stack sets how many coils go on a pallet and how heavy each load is.

What the clip shows
| Step | What you see |
|---|---|
| Workshop | Our workshop with several lines |
| Strapping | Narrow coils banded at the strapping station |
| Wrapping | Blue orbital rings wrap coils eye-through in blue film |
| Stacking | A blue gantry stacks the wrapped coils |
| Check | Staff watch the stacker during the run |
Line stations
| Station | Job |
|---|---|
| Strapping | Radial straps through the eye secure the coil layers before film wrapping |
| Wrapping | Film covers faces, edges and bore |
| Gantry stacking | Builds stacks of wrapped coils on the outfeed |
| Outfeed conveyor | Moves stacks to forklift pick-up |
Coils per pallet
Worked example (illustrative).
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Coils per stack (illustrative) | 6 |
| Stacks per pallet (illustrative) | 2 |
| Coils per pallet, 6 × 2 | 12 |
| Coil weight (illustrative) | 150 kg |
| Pallet load, 12 × 150 | 1,800 kg |
What we set per line
| Setting | Depends on |
|---|---|
| Stack | Coils per stack, layer pads |
| Pallet | Stacks per pallet, load limit |
| Film | Colour, layers |
| Strap | PET strap, straps per coil |
Selection checklist
- Coil OD, ID, width and weight.
- Coils per stack and per pallet.
- Pallet load limit.
- Film colour and layers.
- Straps per coil.
- Coils per hour.
Safety
- Keep clear of the strapping head and wrapping ring while they run.
- Stay outside the fenced gantry area.
- Lock out before clearing a jam.
- For CE markets, the machine is designed to ISO 12100 and EN 415-10.
Engineering FAQ
Q: What does the line do? A: It straps narrow coils, wraps them eye-through and stacks them with a gantry.
Q: How many coils go on a pallet? A: Coils per stack times stacks per pallet; 12 coils in the worked example.
Q: How heavy is a pallet load? A: It depends on coil weight and stack layout; 1,800 kg for 12 coils of 150 kg in the worked example.
Q: Can the film be coloured? A: Yes, as in the clip, the film colour is set per customer.
Q: Which strap does it use? A: PET strap, with straps per coil set per size.
Q: Which standards apply? A: For CE markets, ISO 12100 and EN 415-10.
Next step
We match a narrow coil packing line in three steps:
- Submit your layout drawing with coil sizes, weights, pallet limits and coils per hour, to info@fhopepack.com.
- Receive a proposal within 48 hours with the machine data and layout.
- Book a site survey so we confirm the outfeed and forklift layout.
