This guide for slitting service centres plans a full slit set across straps, stacks and stations.<\/p>\n<p>The video shows the demonstration line:<\/p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"358\" height=\"636\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/72OP0qRqYiQ\" title=\"Coil Packaging: Solutions for Industry\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<h2>The packing problem after a slitter<\/h2>\n<p>A slitter delivers a whole set of narrow coils at once, often for several customers. Each coil needs straps, a protective wrap, a weight, a label, and a place on the right pallet. Manual handling by crane means slow lifts, mixed-up pallets and damaged edges; our line does it coil by coil, sorting onto pallets as it goes.<\/p>\n<h2>What the line does on the shop floor<\/h2>\n<p>A green down ender tilts a slit coil onto a yellow roller conveyor; the coil travels to the wrapping station, where an arm wraps it in white film beside a yellow mesh fence. Further along, an automatic unit marks it, then the coil runs to the end of the conveyor.<\/p>\n<h2>Modules from cross arm to turntable<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Cross arm.<\/strong> The slit set goes on a rotating cross arm, 10 t per arm, 40 t total; it turns to present the next set.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Down ender.<\/strong> Takes one coil at a time off the arm and lays it on the conveyor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PET strapper.<\/strong> Eye-through PET straps go on automatically at 3, 4 or 6 points, in a 15 s cycle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wrapper.<\/strong> Film, paper or woven fabric goes on through the eye for 360\u00b0 protection.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weighing and labelling.<\/strong> Net and gross weight are captured; a barcode label is applied.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Centring table, stacker and turntable.<\/strong> The coil is centred, picked by the stacker (electromagnetic or vacuum lifter) and set on one of six pallet stations.<\/p>\n<h2>System data<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead><tr><th>Item<\/th>\n<th>Value<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr><td>Coil weight<\/td>\n<td>80\u20135,000 kg<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Coil OD \/ ID<\/td>\n<td>750\u20131,400 mm \/ 508 mm<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Cross arm<\/td>\n<td>10 t per arm, 40 t total, automatic rotation<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Strapping<\/td>\n<td>PET, 3, 4 or 6 straps, 15 s cycle<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Wrapping media<\/td>\n<td>stretch film, paper, VCI film, woven fabric<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Stacking<\/td>\n<td>stacking machine, 6-station turntable, centring table<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Stack limits<\/td>\n<td>up to 1,000 mm high with pallet; 3,000 kg per coil; 6,000 kg per stack<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Controls<\/td>\n<td>Profinet, ERP integration<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody><\/table>\n<h2>Why a 6-station turntable<\/h2>\n<p>A single stacking point must stop while a full pallet is removed. A six-station turntable keeps going: one pallet fills while another is discharged or set down, and each station can hold a different order \u2014 so coils of one slit set go straight to the right pallet, removing the usual restacking step.<\/p>\n<h2>Weighing, labels and ERP<\/h2>\n<p>Every coil is weighed on the line; net and gross weight go onto a barcode label. Over Profinet, the line receives order data and sends back weights, so the packing list matches what is actually on each pallet.<\/p>\n<h2>Worked example: one slit set from arm to pallets<\/h2>\n<p>A service centre slits a 1,200 mm OD, 508 mm ID master coil, 1,000 mm wide, into 8 strips of 120 mm plus 40 mm trim; five strips go to one order, three to another (illustrative figures).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Arm load.<\/strong> Cross-section \u03c0 \u00f7 4 \u00d7 (1.2\u00b2 \u2212 0.508\u00b2) = 0.928 m\u00b2, so the master coil weighs 0.928 \u00d7 1.0 \u00d7 7,850 = 7,285 kg \u2014 inside the 10 t per arm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>One strip.<\/strong> Each 120 mm coil weighs 0.928 \u00d7 0.12 \u00d7 7,850 = 874 kg, inside the 80\u20135,000 kg range; 8 coils weigh 6,992 kg, and 293 kg leaves as trim.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Strapping.<\/strong> At 4 straps \u00d7 15 s, that is 60 s per coil; with 3 straps, 45 s.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stacks.<\/strong> The first order&#8217;s 5 coils weigh 4,370 kg and stand 600 mm; with a 150 mm pallet, 750 mm \u2014 within the 1,000 mm \/ 6,000 kg limits. The second order&#8217;s 3 coils use another station; one slit set uses two of six, so pallets for up to three slit sets can build at once.<\/p>\n<p><strong>General rule.<\/strong> Coils per stack = the smaller of 6,000 \u00f7 coil weight and (1,000 \u2212 pallet height) \u00f7 coil width.<\/p>\n<h2>Selection checklist: what to send us<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Master coil size\/weight and strip widths.<\/li>\n<li>Orders per slit set.<\/li>\n<li>Strap material and count.<\/li>\n<li>Wrapping media.<\/li>\n<li>Pallet size and stack limits.<\/li>\n<li>ERP and label data.<\/li>\n\n<h2>Safety<\/h2>\n<p>For CE markets we follow EN 415-10 as the reference, assessed to ISO 12100. The hazards are the rotating cross arm, the down ender, the strapping head, the wrapping ring, the stacker and the turntable. Fence and gate-interlock the line as on our demonstration line; keep operators out of the heavy-load zones during production.<\/p>\n<h2>Engineering FAQ<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Can it handle copper and stainless coils?<\/strong> Yes \u2014 steel, copper and aluminium. Soft-touch contact parts (coated rollers, non-marking pads) are specified against the surface finish.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why PET strap rather than steel?<\/strong> PET strapping runs automatically at 3, 4 or 6 points; tell us if customers require steel strap.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can the line talk to our ERP?<\/strong> Yes \u2014 it integrates over Profinet for order data and weights.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Which standards do you build to?<\/strong> EN 415-10 as the CE reference, with an ISO 12100 assessment.<\/p>\n<h2>Next step<\/h2>\n<p>Email your coil range, slit layouts and
