Wider Width Slitting Lines are advanced metalworking systems designed to efficiently process large coils of metal, particularly steel, into narrower strips or coils. These specialized production lines have revolutionized the metal processing industry by offering a continuous, high speed operation that significantly outperforms traditional methods like band saws or cut to length operations. The process begins with placing a large metal coil, typically steel, onto a decoiler that feeds the material into the slitting line. As the metal sheet travels through the line under carefully controlled tension, a series of rotary slitting blades precisely cut it into multiple narrower strips of desired widths and gauges.This precision cutting is achieved with minimal material loss, ensuring ideal utilization of resources. After slitting, the newly created narrower strips can undergo additional processes such as edge trimming, leveling or recoiling, depending on the specific requirements of the end product. The finished slit coils are then packaged and prepared for shipment to customers.
This level of precision allows the resulting strips to be used directly in automated manufacturing processes with minimal secondary processing. Furthermore, the clean, smooth edges produced by razor slitting contribute to superior surface finish and integrity, enabling the use of thinner gauges and maintaining the corrosion resistance properties of the materials.
Components :
Coil Car : This component of a wider width slitting line transports heavy coils from storage to the uncoiler.
Uncoiler : The uncoiler is a component of the wider width slitting line that holds and unwinds the large metal coil, feeding it into the system.
Peeler Table : A component of the wider width slitting line that initiates unwinding by lifting the edge of the coil and feeding it into the pinch rolls.
Pinch Rolls and Straightener : These are essential components of the slitting line that grip and pull the metal strip, effectively eliminating bends to ensure smooth processing.
Loop Control System : A key component of the slitting unit that creates a loop of metal to maintain consistent tension and speed.
Slitter Head : Found in the wide span equipment, it contains rotary knives that cut the metal into strips with high precision.
Scrap Winder : A vital part of the wider width line that collects edge trims produced during slitting.
Exit Coil Car : A component of the unit that transports finished coils to the storage area.
