Combination straightener reel for light duties

COE Press Equipment has released its new coil straightener and reel combination, an economical solution for stamping and roll forming shops processing light gauge materials – perhaps for producing components such as brackets, hinges and mouldings. Combining unwinding and straightening in a single machine, these systems can pair with a COE ServoMaster 1 or ServoMaster 2 servo roll feed to deliver a complete press feeding line.

These systems can process MCRS, aluminium and stainless in thicknesses from 0.032” to 0.125” and widths from 3” to 12” (depending on material thickness). It is possible to accommodate coil weights up to 1814 kg and achieve line speeds up to 15 m/min.

The systems are available with right to left configuration and powered with 440 VAC. The straightener features nine 1.97” power-driven rolls with 3.30” diameter entrance pinch rolls and a photo loop sensor. Notably, the reel, with four-pad mandrel construction and four coil keepers, handles a coil OD of up to 48” and a coil ID from 19” to 20.5” using a hand crank expansion. The reel features an air-operated hold-down arm and a mechanical drag brake.

Importantly, the value of this combined straightener-reel machine is enhanced by COE’s ServoMaster 1 or ServoMaster 2 roll feeds, which feature ServoMaster Touch controls that can integrate with press controls to provide a complete and compact control system with functions that can be executed by the job recipe at the touch of a button.

The combination straightener-reel systems, as well the ServoMaster roll feeds, are part of COE’s Express Delivery programme and are available at the company’s online store.
