Unlike rigid hydraulic hoses that hold their shape, these flexible products require gentle tension, guiding rollers, and low coil weights to prevent squashing or sliding apart during the wrapping process. The machine ensures the coil arrives clean, round, and ready for retail or installation.<\/p>\n<h2>Overview<\/h2>\n<p>The video demonstrates the core wrapping cycle. An operator places a silver-gray coiled hose onto the rotating platform, threading the ring through its eye. The machine\u2019s ring arm rotates, spiraling clear film over the coil\u2019s cross-section while guiding rollers support the coil to maintain its round shape. The process concludes with the operator manually pressing the film tail and cutting it.<\/p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"940\" height=\"535\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/W-TuNaAqaSk?rel=0\" title=\"PVC hose packing machine, flex pipe wrapping machine\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<h2>Why flexible coils need specific handling<\/h2>\n<p>Rigid hydraulic hose holds its shape, but PVC hose and flex pipe do not. A light coil can squash if the film is pulled too tightly, and its turns can slide apart if handled loosely. Therefore, the wrapper for these products is smaller and lighter than one designed for heavy rubber hose. It runs the ring and rollers at speeds adjusted by an inverter and supports the coil on guiding rollers. This support ensures the coil keeps its round shape while the film is applied.<\/p>\n<h2>Packing a flex pipe coil, step by step<\/h2>\n<p>The wrapping process follows a consistent five-step sequence observed in the machine&#8217;s operation.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Tie:<\/strong> The coil arrives from the coiler already secured with a few straps. This initial tying holds the coil\u2019s shape on the machine, preventing the turns from separating during the wrapping cycle.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Load:<\/strong> The operator places the coil onto the yellow guiding rollers. The machine\u2019s ring is threaded through the eye of the coil, positioning it for the spiral wrap.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Start the film:<\/strong> The operator threads the end of the film onto the coil and initiates the cycle.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wrap:<\/strong> The ring turns, spiraling clear film over the coil&#8217;s cross-section. Simultaneously, the rollers turn the coil slowly, ensuring the film covers the entire circumference.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Finish:<\/strong> The ring stops. The operator presses the film tail onto the pack to secure it and then cuts the film.<\/li>\n\n<p>The machine features a blue metal frame with yellow components, including the guiding rollers. Control buttons are located on the blue base, though specific interface details are not visible in the operational footage.<\/p>\n<h2>FPH-200 data<\/h2>\n<p>The FPH-200 is the primary model for handling standard flexible coils. The specifications below are manufacturer-provided data points that define the machine&#8217;s operational window.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead><tr><th>Item<\/th>\n<th>FPH-200<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr><td>Coil ID<\/td>\n<td>300\u2013600 mm<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Coil OD<\/td>\n<td>400\u2013900 mm<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Coil width<\/td>\n<td>50\u2013200 mm<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Coil weight<\/td>\n<td>5\u201350 kg<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Cycle<\/td>\n<td>15\u201335 s per coil<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Ring speed<\/td>\n<td>20\u201390 r\/min, inverter adjusted<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Overlap<\/td>\n<td>20\u201390%<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Film<\/td>\n<td>LLDPE, PE stretch film or PVC<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Power<\/td>\n<td>1.5 kW; AC 380 V, 50 Hz, or to requirement<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody><\/table>\n<p>For heavier and larger coils, specifically those up to 100 kg and 1,000 mm OD, the FPH-300N is the recommended configuration. The FPH-200 is optimized for the lower weight and size range typical of soft PVC and flex pipes.<\/p>\n<h2>Worked example: a flex pipe coil<\/h2>\n<p>The following calculation illustrates how cycle time and film consumption are derived from coil geometry. This example uses an illustrative coil to demonstrate the arithmetic, not a measured test result.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Illustrative coil:<\/strong> 600 mm OD, 350 mm ID, 120 mm wide; 100 mm film at 40% overlap.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead><tr><th>Check<\/th>\n<th>Calculation<\/th>\n<th>Result<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr><td>Outer circumference<\/td>\n<td>\u03c0 \u00d7 600<\/td>\n<td>\u2248 1,885 mm<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Ring turns<\/td>\n<td>1,885 \u00f7 60 = 31.4, rounded down for this estimate<\/td>\n<td>\u2248 31<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Time at 90 r\/min<\/td>\n<td>31 \u00f7 90<\/td>\n<td>\u2248 0.35 min \u2248 21 s<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Radial wall<\/td>\n<td>(600 \u2212 350) \u00f7 2<\/td>\n<td>125 mm<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Film per turn<\/td>\n<td>2 \u00d7 (125 + 120)<\/td>\n<td>490 mm<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Film per coil, relaxed<\/td>\n<td>31 \u00d7 0.49<\/td>\n<td>\u2248 15 m<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody><\/table>\n<p><strong>Result.<\/strong> The calculation suggests approximately 21 seconds and 15 meters of film. This falls within the 15\u201335 second range specified for the machine. For very soft hose, the ring speed is slowed and tension is lowered, which moves the cycle time toward the upper end of the range.<\/p>\n<h2>Tension, tying and film selection<\/h2>\n<p>Proper configuration of tension and film type is critical for soft products.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Tie first:<\/strong> Straps or ties are essential to hold the coil turns in place while the film is applied. Without this initial securing, the coil may lose its shape.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Low tension:<\/strong> The film brake should be set just tight enough to lay flat. Excessive tension will squash a soft PVC coil, resulting in poor aesthetics and potential kinking.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Overlap:<\/strong> The overlap is settable from 20% to 90%. Higher overlap percentages are recommended for outdoor storage to provide greater protection against weather and handling damage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Film:<\/strong> Clear film allows the product and label to be visible, which is ideal for retail. PVC film is also an option and is often suitable for retail packs where specific film properties are required.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Selection checklist<\/h2>\n<p>When evaluating this machine for your production line, consider the following parameters to ensure a match.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Coil dimensions:<\/strong> Verify that your coil ID, OD, width, and weight fall within the FPH-200 window (300\u2013600 mm ID, 400\u2013900 mm OD, 50\u2013200 mm wide, 5\u201350 kg). If weights exceed 50 kg or OD exceeds 900 mm, the FPH-300N is required.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Product type:<\/strong> Confirm the product is garden hose, braided PVC hose, conduit, or flex pipe. Rigid hydraulic hoses have different handling requirements.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Output requirements:<\/strong> Determine the required coils per hour. The cycle time varies based on coil size and overlap settings.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Film and labeling:<\/strong> Decide on the film type (LLDPE, PE, or PVC) and whether a label needs to be placed under the film.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Integration:<\/strong> Assess whether manual loading is sufficient or if a link to the coiler is needed for automation.<\/li>\n\n<h2>Safety: EN 415-10 and ISO 12100<\/h2>\n<p>The machine is built to EN 415-10, with the risk assessment conducted according to ISO 12100. These standards serve as design references for safety. The primary hazards are the turning ring and the driven rollers. The perimeter fence is the manufacturer&#8217;s guarding specification; the footage here was shot with the machine open for demonstration, so the delivered guard panels, fence layout and emergency-stop circuit are confirmed in the ordering technical agreement. The cycle is designed to run to a complete stop before the operator reaches in to press down and cut the film tail.<\/p>\n<p>On the FPH-200 model, the film cut is manual. An automatic cutter is available on the larger FPH range. Certification of a delivered machine is confirmed in the project ordering agreement; the machine itself is designed in accordance with the referenced standards.<\/p>\n<h2>Engineering FAQ<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Q: Will the film squash soft PVC hose?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: Not if tension is set low. The ring and roller speeds are inverter-adjusted to accommodate soft products, allowing for gentle wrapping.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What coil sizes fit the FPH-200?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: The FPH-200 handles coils with 300\u2013600 mm ID, 400\u2013900 mm OD, 50\u2013200 mm width, and 5\u201350 kg weight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What decides whether a coil takes 15 s or 35 s?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: The coil OD and overlap determine the number of ring turns. The ring speed (20\u201390 r\/min) determines how fast they are laid. Soft hose runs at low speed with high overlap, nearing 35 s. A small coil at full speed may approach 15 s.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Do coils need tying first?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: Yes, a few ties are required to keep the coil round on the machine before wrapping begins.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Is the film cut automatic?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: On the FPH-200, the cut is manual. Automatic cutters are available on larger models in the FPH range.<\/p>\n<h2>Next step<\/h2>\n<p>To receive a real configuration and quotation, please send the following data to the supplier:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Coil ID, OD, width, and weight range.<\/li>\n<li>Product type (e.g., garden hose, corrugated conduit).<\/li>\n<li>Required output (coils per hour).<\/li>\n<li>Preferred film type and labeling requirements.<\/li>\n\n<p>We reply with a proposal after we confirm the details.<\/p>\n<h2>Related reading<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Pipe-packing-machine\/Hose-Coil-wrapper-FPH-200.html\">Hose coil wrapper FPH-200 (product)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/coil-wrapping-machine-for-hose-pipe-coils\/\">How coil wrapping machine for hose\/pipe coils packing<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/flexible-corrugated-pipe-rolls-wrapping-machine-and-hose-packing-mahcine\/\">Flexible corrugated pipe rolls wrapping machine<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/corrugated-hose-coil-film-wrapping-machine\/\">Corrugated hose coil film wrapping machine<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/ol><\/ol><\/ol>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A PVC hose packing machine and flex pipe wrapping machine are designed to wrap soft, springy coils of garden hose, corrugated conduit, and flexible pipes in a spiral of film.
