Picking the right machine comes down to three numbers: pipe OD, metres per coil and the coil size your customer wants. This page compares our two vertical coiler ranges, shows how to check that your coil fits, and explains length counting and strap layout.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"940\" height=\"535\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rXBCd_mN-ZI\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<p>Hose is wound onto an expandable reel with steel spokes, which opens to hold the coil eye and closes to release it. The strapping head sits right beside the reel, so the coil is strapped where it is formed.

Soft tube packs a little tighter, corrugated hose looser, so confirm on a trial coil.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"length-counting\">Length counting and cutting<\/h2>\n<p>The meter counter measures pipe as it runs and the PLC cuts at the set length. Cut length is adjustable on the panel, so one machine serves several coil lengths. After cutting, the machine holds the loop and moves the coil to the next station, so the next coil starts at once. Length tolerance for your pipe is confirmed at quote.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"strap-layout\">Strap layout<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Straps are spaced evenly around the coil, so the layers cannot spring open.<\/li>\n<li>Short, light coils need fewer straps; tall or springy coils need more.<\/li>\n<li>Strap tension is set low enough that thin-wall pipe is not flattened at the strap.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"line-sync\">Running with the extruder<\/h2>\n<p>The extruder should not have to wait for the coiler. Coiling speed must match line speed, and coil change must fit in the time between cuts. If the coil change takes longer than the gap, an accumulator or a second reel keeps the line running. Give us your line speed and we check the change time.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"selection-checklist\">Selection checklist<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Pipe types and ODs?<\/li>\n<li>Metres per coil and coil sizes?<\/li>\n<li>Extruder line speed?<\/li>\n<li>How many straps, and strap material?<\/li>\n<li>Wrapping, labelling or boxing after strapping?<\/li>\n<li>Air and power on site?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"safety\">Safety<\/h2>\n<p>The machine is designed to EN ISO 12100:2010 for risk assessment, EN 415-10 for packaging machine safety and EN 60204-1 for electrical equipment. The turning reel, the cutter and the strapping head are guarded, with an emergency stop at the panel.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"engineering-faq\">Engineering FAQ<\/h2>\n<p>Q: What pipe sizes can it coil?\nA: From 2 mm up to 30 mm OD across the FCL-600 and FCL-800 models.<\/p>\n<p>Q: How do I know my coil size works?\nA: Use the fit check above with your pipe OD and metres per coil.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Can I change coil length quickly?\nA: Yes, cut length is set on the panel.<\/p>\n<p>Q: How fast can it coil?\nA: Up to 80 m per minute on the FCL-800.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"next-step\">Next
