60 coils per hour with a 60 s wrap in the worked example.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Does it handle aluminium too?\nA: Yes, with contact parts set to the surface.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Can you add VCI paper?\nA: Yes. The wrapping station can apply VCI paper under the stretch film.<\/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 match a copper coil packing line in three steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Submit your layout drawing<\/strong> with coil sizes, weights, material and coils per hour, to <strong>info@fhopepack.com<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Receive a proposal within 48 hours<\/strong> with the machine data and layout.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Book a site survey<\/strong> so we confirm the line layout.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"related-reading\">Related reading<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/automated-copper-coil-packaging-line-from-upending-strapping-to-stacking-without-surface-damage\/\">Copper Strip Coil Packing Line<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/engineering-guide-implementing-a-two-stage-wrapping-stacking-system-for-copper-coils\/\">Two-Stage Copper Coil Packing Line<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/kinematic-and-force-analysis-of-automated-tilting-strapping-and-wrapping-equipment-handling-sensitive-non-ferrous-metal-coils\/\">Non-Ferrous Coil Strapping, Wrapping and Stacking Line<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Automatic-Coil-Packing-Line\/\">Automatic coil packing lines<\/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>Clip: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=lzQonaJnnMw\">the video on YouTube<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Cycle per coil: our worked example, illustrative values<\/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> 2026-10-10<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Executive summary This clip shows our packing line for copper strip coils.
