Compressing the coil keeps the wound layers compact and stable while the coil is stored or shipped.<\/p>\n<p>Compressing on the machine also prepares the coil for take-off onto a rack. Coil size and the target height are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-the-machine-does-3977\">What the machine does<\/h2>\n<p>The machine is a compressing unit with a horizontal platform for the wire coil and a press above it. The coil is placed on the platform, a press head moves down to compress it, and a lifting arm raises the compressed coil off for racking.<\/p>\n<p>The take-off motion clears the platform so the next coil can be loaded. Coil geometry and cycle time are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"press-head-and-take-off-lift\">Press head and take-off lift<\/h2>\n<p>A press head is mounted above the platform on a frame and moves vertically to press on the top of the coil. The platform keeps the coil level and can rotate while the press applies pressure, so the coil stays round during the compress.<\/p>\n<p>A lifting arm beside the platform grips the compressed coil and raises it for take-off. Press travel and lift height are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"cycle-and-rack-take-off-layout\">Cycle and rack take-off layout<\/h2>\n<p>The cycle starts with the coil on the platform, the press head above it. The head moves down to compress the coil, holds it, then lifts clear, and the lifting arm raises the compressed coil for rack take-off.<\/p>\n<p>The machine is laid out so a loaded coil arrives at one side and the compressed coil is taken off for racking at the other. Hold time and take-off path are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-the-footage-shows\">What the footage shows<\/h2>\n<p>Our footage shows a large silver steel wire coil standing on the horizontal platform under the press head of the machine. The press head moves down and compresses the coil, which grows wider and lower as the platform turns, keeping the wound coil even.<\/p>\n<p>After the press lifts clear, the lifting arm raises the compressed coil off the platform, and a control cabinet beside the frame with a display and buttons is visible. It is a general demonstration, so your coil diameter, compression and rack layout are confirmed with us per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"typical-configuration\">Typical configuration<\/h2>\n<p>Figures below list functional design boundaries rather than numeric values, and are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Parameter<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Typical range, confirmed per project<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Load<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">wound steel wire coils on the platform<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Compress<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">press head moves down over the coil<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Platform<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">horizontal platform that turns under the press<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Take-off<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">lifting arm raises the compressed coil for racking<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Control<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">panel beside the frame with cycle start and stop<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Mount<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">floor mounted, gantry style over the platform<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Safety<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">guards and clearances around the moving head<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Electrical supply<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">380 V three phase 50 Hz, or 220 V single phase for light machines, selected per project<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 id=\"selection-checklist\">Selection checklist<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Question<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Confirm per project<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Coil range<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">outer and inner diameter, height, wire gauge<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Compress<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">target height, hold time<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Take-off<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">rack height, lift clearance<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Feed<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">conveyor or manual load, platform height<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Site<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">floor space around the frame<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Electrical supply<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">voltage, phase and frequency on site<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 id=\"operation-and-safety\">Operation and safety<\/h2>\n<p>Place the coil on the platform or let the conveyor bring it in, start the cycle, and let the press head compress the coil before the lifting arm takes it off.
