Coil size and film choice are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-the-line-does\">What the line does<\/h2>\n<p>The line is a set of automatic stations built around the coil. A rail cart or roller track brings the coil to the wrapping station, a rotating clamp arm holds it in place, and film or band is applied around the full circumference.<\/p>\n<p>An axial press tightens the finished layer, and a robotic arm lifts the packed coil to the next station. Line length and station order are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"clamp-arm-and-material-supply\">Clamp arm and material supply<\/h2>\n<p>The clamp arm and its support are the heart of the wrapping station. They grip the coil on its axis while the coil rotates for even coverage.<\/p>\n<p>On the supply side, a roll feeds film or band through guide rollers into the wrapping path, with tension kept steady during the wrap. Material width and tension are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"wrapping-and-pressing-cycle\">Wrapping and pressing cycle<\/h2>\n<p>The cycle starts when the coil is fixed in the clamp arm. The coil turns slowly while film or band winds around the circumference, layer by layer, until the coil is covered.<\/p>\n<p>After the last layer, the press tightens the wrap and the clamp releases the coil. Wrap layers and press travel are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-the-footage-shows\">What the footage shows<\/h2>\n<p>Our footage shows an automatic coil packing line with a rotating clamp arm holding a steel coil while film or band winds around it, framed by perimeter guarding. A robotic arm then lifts a coil clear of the track and moves it toward the next station. It is a general demonstration, so your coil size, film and line 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\">Feed<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">steel coil delivered on a rail cart or roller track<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Coil<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">coil outer diameter and width in mm, confirmed per project<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Wrap<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">rotating clamp arm applies film or band around the coil<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Film<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">stretch film or VCI rust-protection paper, selected per project<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Press<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">axial press tightens the finished layer<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Transfer<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">robotic arm moves the packed coil to the next station<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Guard<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">perimeter fencing around the wrapping area<\/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\">Line layout<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">stations needed for wrapping, pressing and transfer<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Coil range<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">outer and inner diameter and width per coil family<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Film<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">stretch film for short, clean trips or VCI rust paper for long transport<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Straps<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">1 to 3 straps per coil, chosen from coil width, diameter and stability<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Transfer<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">robotic arm or rail cart, matched to the existing line<\/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>Bring the coil to the station on the cart or track, let the clamp arm hold it, and start the wrapping and pressing cycle.
