Through-eye spiral wrapping seals both inner diameter (ID) and outer diameter (OD) under overlapping stretch film, paper or woven belt.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gentle handling dynamics<\/strong>: Servo-actuated downenders and buffer cross arms absorb kinetic shock during infeed loading, lowering slit coils smoothly to prevent edge burring or telescoping [manufacturer rating].<\/li>\n<li><strong>Full perimeter enclosure<\/strong>: Tight containment layers hold slit strip wraps rigidly against internal recoil forces, maintaining package integrity throughout internal warehouse transfers and long-distance maritime shipping.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"stack\">Coils per stack<\/h2>\n<p>Pallet stack heights and piece counts depend strictly on coil width, center-of-gravity boundaries, and allowable timber pallet load capacities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Worked example (illustrative).<\/strong><\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Item<\/th>\n<th>Value<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Coil width (illustrative)<\/td>\n<td>100 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Stack height limit (illustrative)<\/td>\n<td>1,000 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Coils per stack, 1,000 \u00f7 100<\/td>\n<td>10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Coil weight (illustrative)<\/td>\n<td>80 kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Stack weight, 10 \u00d7 80<\/td>\n<td>800 kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Stacking accuracy and loading ranges vary by line type [manufacturer rating]:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Robotic or gantry stacking on automated lines holds \u00b12 mm positioning accuracy per layer, with adjustable-pitch coil separation and automatic pallet exchange.<\/li>\n<li>Automatic weighing, packing and stacking lines handle coils from 80 kg up to 5,000 kg, strip widths 17\u2013400 mm and outer diameters 750\u20131400 mm.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"setup\">What we set per line<\/h2>\n<p>Line operating parameters are configured to match physical mill constraints and coil specifications:<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Setting<\/th>\n<th>Depends on<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Wrapping<\/td>\n<td>Film layers and overlap; PE film, paper or woven belt<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Stacker mechanism<\/td>\n<td>Target stack height, total weight limits, and gripping methodology (forkarm, vacuum cups, or magnetic grippers)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Conveyor geometry<\/td>\n<td>Coil OD, ID, width profile, and required throughput speed synchronization<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Pallet logistics<\/td>\n<td>Pallet dimensions, timber runner positioning, and downstream strapping arrangements<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Selection follows plant capacity and coil mix [manufacturer rating]:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Standard lines give 8\u201314 coils per hour, changeovers under 10 minutes, and handle coil IDs 508\u2013762 mm and ODs 800\u20132000 mm.<\/li>\n<li>Fully automatic lines reach up to 60 coils per hour for coils of OD 600\u20131000 mm, ID 344\u2013400 mm, width 20\u2013200 mm and unit weights up to 500 kg, under Siemens PLC with Auto and Manual modes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"selection-checklist\">Selection checklist<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Coil OD, ID, width and weight.<\/li>\n<li>Film layers.<\/li>\n<li>Stack height and weight.<\/li>\n<li>Pallet size.<\/li>\n<li>Coils per hour.<\/li>\n<li>Layout.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"safety\">Safety<\/h2>\n<p>Orbital rings, downenders and stacking arms present entrapment and crushing hazards:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Keep clear of moving stations.<\/li>\n<li>Stay outside the fence while the line runs.<\/li>\n<li>Lock out before clearing a jam.<\/li>\n<li>For CE markets, the line is designed to ISO 12100:2010 and EN 415-10:2014, the safety requirements for packaging machines.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"engineering-faq\">Engineering FAQ<\/h2>\n<p>Q: Why do copper coils need care?\nA: Copper is soft and tarnishes in humid air. PU-lined contact parts, gentle handling and full through-eye wrapping prevent scoring and oxidation.<\/p>\n<p>Q: How many coils can be stacked on a single pallet?\nA: In our illustrative worked example, a 1,000 mm stack height limit accommodates 10 coils of 100 mm width, creating an 800 kg load. In operational plants, stack capacity is governed by pallet weight ratings, customer warehouse limits, and stack stability.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Is the line fully automated?\nA: Conveying, wrapping and stacking run automatically under Siemens PLC and HMI with Auto and Manual modes [manufacturer rating].<\/p>\n<p>Q: What mechanisms prevent copper scratching during coil transfer?\nA: Contact parts on conveyors, turnstiles and stackers are PU-coated to prevent scratches [manufacturer rating].<\/p>\n<p>Q: What sets the upper stack limit on the stacking station?\nA: Stack height and weight for pallet handling, plus the stacker rating and warehouse clearances.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Which international safety standards govern line design?\nA: For CE markets, ISO 12100 and EN 415-10.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"next-step\">Next step<\/h2>\n<p>We engineer and deliver customized copper coil packing solutions tailored to plant throughput and coil profiles through a straightforward evaluation:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Submit your layout drawing<\/strong> along with coil specifications (OD, ID, width, weight range) and target coils per hour to <strong>info@fhopepack.com<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Receive a proposal within 48 hours<\/strong> complete with preliminary line layout, cycle-time analysis, and technical parameters.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Book a site survey<\/strong> with our engineering team to review line footprints, infeed crane clearances, and logistics tie-ins.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"related-reading\">Related reading<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/the-ultimate-guide-to-heavy-duty-copper-strip-coil-strapping-wrapping-stacking-systems\/\">Copper Strip Coil Strapping and Stacking System<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/showcase-for-the-copper-sheet-bundle-wrapping\/\">Copper Sheet Bundle Orbital Wrapping Line<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/steel-strips-packing-line-for-narrow-coil-showcase\/\">Narrow Steel Strip Coil Packing Line<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Coil_packing_machine.html\">Coil packing machine<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"sources\">Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Machine content: FHOPE engineering team, 2026-10-10<\/li>\n<li>YouTube: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ihS8-4JgA0g\">the video on YouTube<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Coils per stack: our worked example, illustrative values<\/li>\n<li>Automatic Copper Strip Coil Packaging Line: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Automatic-Coil-Packing-Line\/Copper-Coil-Packaging-line.html\">Copper strip coil packaging line<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Standard Copper Coil Packing Line: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Automatic-Coil-Packing-Line\/Standard-Copper-Coil-Packing-Line.html\">Standard Copper Coil Packing Line<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Automatic Copper Strip Coil Weighing, Packing and Stacking Line: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Copper-Coil-Packing-Line\/Automatic-Copper-Strip-Coil-Weighing-Packing-And-Stacking-Line.html\">Automatic Copper Strip Coil Weighing, Packing and Stacking Line<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Standards scope: ISO 12100:2010; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nen.nl\/en\/nen-en-415-10-2014-en-191845\">EN 415-10:2014<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Proposal timing: approved house CTA (proposal within 48 hours)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Last reviewed:<\/strong> 2026-10-29<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Executive summary Industrial copper coil packing lines automate protective orbital wrapping and end-of-line palletizing for slit strip and master copper coils.
