A hot run with real coils proves that the stations work together at the rated weight:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Real loads.<\/strong> The tilting table, press and conveyors carry real coils, so drive sizing and brake settings are tested at weight.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Real consumables.<\/strong> Strap and protective material are fed from production rolls, so feeding, cutting and sealing are tested as they will run on site.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Long run.<\/strong> Cycling for hours shows faults that one cycle hides, such as a sensor that drifts or a strap feed that slips after many joints.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shorter site start-up.<\/strong> Faults fixed in our factory are faults your crew does not meet during installation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"test-plan\">Factory test plan, station by station<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Station<\/th>\n<th>What we check under load<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Tilting table<\/td>\n<td>Smooth lay-down from upright to flat; coil stays centred on the rollers<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Press<\/td>\n<td>Plate holds the coil without marking the painted surface<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Strapping<\/td>\n<td>Strap position, tension and joint quality on every cycle<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Side cover<\/td>\n<td>Material overlap and edge cover all round the coil<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Conveyors<\/td>\n<td>Stop positions repeat between stations<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Controls<\/td>\n<td>Signal light, stops and restarts after an interrupted cycle<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Prepainted coil needs extra care at every contact point, because a mark on the paint is a reject.

The line in the clip is fenced with yellow guard rails, and the control cabinet stands outside the moving zone. Access during a cycle is closed off; maintenance is done with the line stopped and isolated.<\/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 sets general requirements for packaging machines; the tilting table is also covered by our upender practice under EN 415-10.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"engineering-faq\">Engineering FAQ<\/h2>\n<p>Q: What is hot commissioning?\nA: Running the complete line with real coils and real consumables at full load in our factory, before it ships.<\/p>\n<p>Q: How many coils per hour does this kind of line pack?\nA: Our slit coil packaging line is published at 20\u201330 coils per hour.<\/p>\n<p>Q: What coil sizes does the published line cover?\nA: 100\u20133000 kg, OD 900\u20131400 mm, ID 508 mm and width 15\u2013450 mm; other sizes are built per project.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Why does the coil go flat before strapping?\nA: Laying the coil flat on the table lets the press plate hold it while the strap goes on through the centre.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Can I witness the test remotely?\nA: Yes. We run the agreed test plan and record it on video when you cannot attend.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Which PLC and HMI run the line?\nA: The published line uses a Siemens S7-1200 or S7-1500 PLC with a 7\u201310 inch HMI.<\/p>\n<p>Q: How do you avoid marking prepainted coil?\nA: We inspect every contact point under load, press pads, rollers and the strap path, and sign off only when the test coils show no contact marks.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Which standards apply?\nA: For CE markets, ISO 12100 and EN 415-10.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"next-step\">Next step<\/h2>\n<p>We plan a coil packing line in three steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Submit your layout drawing<\/strong> with coil weight, OD, ID, width and coils per hour, to <strong>info@fhopepack.com<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Receive a proposal within 48 hours<\/strong>, with the station layout and the factory test plan.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Book a site survey<\/strong> so we confirm the floor space, crane access and guarding.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"related-reading\">Related reading<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/automated-slit-coil-packing-line-for-service-center-boost-your-productivity\/\">Slit Coil Packing Line for Service Centers<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/slit-steel-coil-packaging-system\/\">Automatic Steel Coil Strapping Machine for Slit Steel Coils<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/steel-coil-packaging-line-updates-your-coil-pacakage-process\/\">Steel Coil Packaging Line with Tilting Rack, Wrapping and Press Station<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/why-investing-in-an-automated-steel-coil-packaging-stacking-line-pays-off-in-12-months\/\">Automatic Steel Coil Strapping, Packaging and Stacking Line<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/coil-packing-machine-packing-and-handling\/\">Coil Packing Machine Packing and Handling<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Automatic-Coil-Packing-Line\/Steel-Coil-Packaging-line.html\">Steel coil packaging line for slitting strip<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"sources\">Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Machine in action (our factory footage): <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SvBOwFa962I\">the video on YouTube<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Coil weight, OD, ID, width, speed, materials, PLC and HMI: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Automatic-Coil-Packing-Line\/Steel-Coil-Packaging-line.html\">Steel coil packaging 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> 2026-10-09<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Executive summary This clip records a full-load hot commissioning run of one of our prepainted steel coil packing lines in our factory.
