\nExecutive summary:<\/strong> One plant, all sizes of wire coil. Instead of one machine that compromises on every coil, this line runs three vertical wrappers, each sized to a coil range: a small machine for lighter, smaller coils with fast cycle times, a medium machine for mid-range diameters and weights, and a large machine for heavier coils on a reinforced base and drive. Each wrapper uses support and centering matched to its coil range, so output stays stable across the shift. The video shows all three machines running in the same plant.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Why Three Machines<\/h2>\n
A wire coil plant rarely runs one coil size. When the range is wide, a single wrapper either overworks on large coils or wastes cycle time on small ones. Running three vertical wrappers of matched sizes covers the range without compromise, and the video in this article shows the configuration running side by side.<\/p>\n
The three machines share the same wrapping principle: a rotating ring carries the film around a coil that stands with its eye facing the viewer. What changes between them is capacity, support, and drive size.<\/p>\n
The Three Sizes<\/h2>\n
\n\n
\n \nMachine<\/th>\n Covers<\/th>\n Duty<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n \n Small coil machine<\/td>\n lighter, smaller wire coils<\/td>\n fast cycle times<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n Medium coil machine<\/td>\n mid-range coil diameters and weights<\/td>\n standard duty<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n Large coil machine<\/td>\n larger, heavier coils<\/td>\n reinforced base and drive<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n The small machine turns quickly on light coils. The medium machine handles the common middle of the range. The large machine adds a reinforced base and drive so heavy coils wrap without flexing the frame. The exact weight and diameter split between the three machines is allocated per project, based on your coil mix.<\/p>\n
For reference, the FHOPE wire coil packing machine range covers steel wire coils with outer diameters up to 2500 mm and weights from 1 to 3 t. A heavy coil dimensional band spans 400 mm to 1000 mm (selection per project). Exact coil ranges for a project are confirmed and configured per project in the engineering review.<\/p>\n

Each machine uses support and centering sized to its coil range. The wrapper base and centering support are matched to the coil, keeping it stable while the ring turns. This is where a wrong-size support shows up: an undersized support lets a heavy coil drift, and an oversized support adds setup time on small coils.<\/p>\n
Cycle Time Balance<\/h2>\n
Matching machine to coil size keeps overall output stable. A single wrapper paced for the worst case slows the whole floor; three matched machines let each coil size run at its own natural cycle. The result is a steady flow from cut-off to the finished wrapped coil.<\/p>\n
Layout Planning<\/h2>\n
Three machines need coordinated floor space, coil flow, and operator coverage. In the layout shown, the machines sit in sequence so a coil flows from one station to the next and one operator tends adjacent stations without cross-traffic.<\/p>\n
Engineering FAQ<\/h2>\n
Q: Do all three machines use the same wrapping motion?\nA: Yes. Each is a vertical wrapper where a rotating ring carries the film around a standing coil. The machines differ in coil capacity, support size, base, and drive, not in the wrapping principle.<\/p>\n
Q: How do I split coils between the machines?\nA: Group your coils by weight and diameter. Light, small coils go to the fast small machine; the middle of the range runs on the medium machine; the heaviest coils use the large machine with its reinforced base and drive.<\/p>\n
Q: How does support differ between machines?\nA: Support and centering are sized to each coil range. Each machine uses a support matched to its coil range, so the coil stays centered and stable during the wrap cycle.<\/p>\n
Q: What coil sizes does this range handle?\nA: On the FHOPE wire coil packing machine reference, steel wire coils run with outer diameters up to 2500 mm and weights from 1 to 3 t; the heaviest units use a reinforced base and drive. The exact split between stations is allocated per project at engineering review.<\/p>\n
Q: What should a buyer confirm before commissioning?\nA: The standards that apply depend on the destination market. For CE markets, ISO 12100 sets the risk-assessment method, and EN 415-10 covers the safety requirements of packaging machines. Confirm the guarding and control scheme with the builder for your market.<\/p>\n
