A Roll Form System will typically include heavy duty coil handling equipment
and possibly a device to straighten the coil before feeding it through the roll former.
Form Process Engineering can include this equipment in a turnkey roll form system.
Coil Reels – weight capacities from 2,500 lbs to 60,000 lbs, with stock widths from 12 in to 84 in. Coil Reels are offered in a variety of standard & custom configurations, motorized and pull off reels can be included whichever best suits your application. Double-ended reels and coil cars can be provided to speed coil change. Our motorized reels include controls to improve drive response for the material being handled. Combinations of sensors, including laser, ultra-sonic and others for feedback to variable speed AC drive. Reels and cradles are built of heavy duty materials and components for industrial usage.
Coil Cradle
Coil Cradles are efficient & effective systems for loading coil, threading and uncoiling medium to heavy gauge material. Cradles are available as a separate uncoiler or in combination a straightener to form a cradle-straightener. Capacities from 4,000 to 60,000 lb. and can handle widths from 12″ to 84″.
