The line has to wrap it, strap it, and turn it eye-up for stacking on a pallet. The clip covers the turning, wrapping and conveying part of that path. Strapping and stacking are stations on the line but are not part of this footage.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Station<\/th>\n<th>What it does<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Coil car or turnstile pick-up<\/td>\n<td>Takes coils off the slitter exit<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tilting unit (down-ender)<\/td>\n<td>Turns the coil between eye-horizontal and eye-up<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ring wrapping station<\/td>\n<td>Wraps film through the eye, with overlap set per coil<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Strapping station<\/td>\n<td>PET or steel straps through the eye<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Roller conveyors and rotating platform<\/td>\n<td>Move and orient coils between stations<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Stacking station<\/td>\n<td>Stacks wrapped coils on a pallet<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>We build the line in three levels. The economic line uses a coiler trolley, a 90\u00b0 tilting down-ender and a manual jog crane. The standard line adds an exit turnstile pick-up, in-line weighing and automatic or semi-automatic bundling. The advanced line runs automatic strapping, eye-through orbital wrapping and automatic gantry stacking.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"specs\">Line specifications<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Slitting coil packaging line<\/th>\n<th>Specification<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Packaging capacity<\/td>\n<td>25 to 40 coils per hour<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Coil weight<\/td>\n<td>100 to 4,000 kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Coil width<\/td>\n<td>15 to 500 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Coil outer diameter<\/td>\n<td>600 to 1,500 mm, up to 2,100 mm on request<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Coil inner diameter<\/td>\n<td>508 or 610 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Strapping cycle<\/td>\n<td>15 to 35 s per strap<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Strapping tension<\/td>\n<td>2,000 to 22,000 N<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Wrapping overlap<\/td>\n<td>10% to 90%, orbital eye-through film<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Stacking accuracy<\/td>\n<td>\u00b12 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Utilities<\/td>\n<td>380 to 480 V, 50 or 60 Hz, 3 phase; air 5 to 8 bar<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Lead time<\/td>\n<td>110 to 140 days for fabrication, assembly and FAT<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 id=\"takt\">Takt check<\/h2>\n<p>At 40 coils per hour the takt is 3,600 \u00f7 40 = 90 s per coil. At 25 coils per hour it is 3,600 \u00f7 25 = 144 s.<\/p>\n<p>Each station has to finish inside that window. With strapping at 15 to 35 s per strap, a coil with two straps uses 30 to 70 s of pure strapping time. That leaves 20 to 60 s for indexing and conveying within a 90 s takt. Wrapping time depends on the coil width and the overlap, so we check it per coil range in the proposal. Where one station runs close to the takt, we add a buffer conveyor ahead of it.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"selection-checklist\">Selection checklist for a slit coil packing line<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Coil width, OD, ID and weight range from the slitter.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Output per hour, matched to the slitter cycle.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Wrapping material and overlap, and the strap type and count.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Line level: economic, standard or advanced.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Stacking pattern, pallet size and labelling.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Floor space, crane access and the operator positions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"safety\">Controls and safety<\/h2>\n<p>On the clip workers stand beside the stations while the line runs. A person inside the reach of a tilting unit, a wrapping ring or a moving conveyor is the move to design out. Our lines carry complete perimeter fencing, light curtains and fail-safe interlocks, so the operator works from outside the fence.<\/p>\n<p>Stop, isolate and lock out the station before anyone enters the fence to clear a film or strap break, change a roll or work on a tilter or ring. Restart only after the fence is closed and the interlock is reset.<\/p>\n<p>The standards that apply depend on the destination market. For CE markets, ISO 12100 sets the risk-assessment method and EN 415-10 covers general requirements for packaging machines, which fixes guarding and the stop arrangement.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"engineering-faq\">Engineering FAQ<\/h2>\n<p>Q: What output does a slit coil packing line reach?\nA: Our line is rated for 25 to 40 coils per hour, for coils of 100 to 4,000 kg and 15 to 500 mm width.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Which coil sizes does the line take?\nA: Coils of 600 to 1,500 mm OD, up to 2,100 mm on request, with 508 or 610 mm ID.<\/p>\n<p>Q: How long does a line take to build?\nA: Fabrication, assembly and FAT take 110 to 140 days for a standard line.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"next-step\">Next step<\/h2>\n<p>We size a slit coil packing line in three steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Submit your layout drawing<\/strong> with the slitter exit, coil range, output target and stacking pattern, to <strong>info@fhopepack.com<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Receive a proposal within 48 hours<\/strong>, with the station list, the line level and the takt check per station.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Book a site survey<\/strong> so we confirm the floor space, the crane access and the fence layout.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"related-reading\">Related reading<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Show-Room\/steel\/slitting-coil-packaging-line.html\">Slitting coil packaging line<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Steel-coil-wrapping-machine\/Steel-coil-packine-machine-FPS-400.html\">Steel coil packing machine FPS-400<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Coil_packing_machine.html\">Coil packing machines<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/automatic-steel-coil-packing-machine-for-steel-strip-coil\/\">Steel strip coil packing machine<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"sources\">Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Line specifications and configurations: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Show-Room\/steel\/slitting-coil-packaging-line.html\">slitting coil packaging line product page<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Clip timing: frame timings taken from our clip, 3 s between frames<\/li>\n<li>Line in action: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=gkM5g6KRbJw\">our video on YouTube<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Standards scope: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iso.org\/standard\/51528.html\">ISO 12100:2010<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nen.nl\/en\/nen-en-415-10-2014-en-191845\">EN 415-10:2014<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Last reviewed:<\/strong> 2026-10-05<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Executive summary A steel slit coil packing line takes narrow coils from the slitter, turns them, wraps them and moves them on toward stacking, with few manual lifts.
