Slit Coil Packaging Lines | SHJLPACK

A Slit Coil Packaging Line is a critical component to optimize the workflow of any coil slitting operation. By efficiently handling slit coils after the slitting process, these systems minimize downtime and ensure coils are ready for storage or shipping. SHJLPACK offers a range of packaging line solutions, adaptable to different production volumes and specific requirements. While sharing some core components, these systems are primarily categorized into three main designs: Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced. **Key Components and Features:** SHJLPACK packaging lines are built with robust features to enhance efficiency and reduce manual handling. Common elements include: * **Automated Pick and Place Downlayer:** Automatically removes slit mults from the exit turnstile, tips them 90 degrees, and places them onto a conveyor. This prevents damage, especially to light gauge material. * **Coil Storage Conveyor:** Receives coils from the downlayer for further processing. * **Banding Station:** Applies bands to secure the coils. Options include Semi-Automatic and Fully-Automatic systems. * **Coil Transfer System:** Moves coils after banding. This can range from manual cranes to automatic cranes. * **Weighing:** Optional or integrated weighing systems are available at various points in the line. **System Configurations:** SHJLPACK offers configurations tailored to specific throughput needs: ### Basic Packaging Lines Designed for foundational automation and efficiency improvement. | Feature | Description | Benefit | | :----------------------------- | :----------------------------------------------------------------------- | :---------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Coil Transfer from Recoiler | Utilizes a Coil Car (not a Pusher) to move coils to the Turnstile. | Smoother transfer, less potential for coil damage. | | Automated Pick and Place Downlayer | Standard component. | Protects coil edges, automates placement on conveyor. | | Coil Storage Conveyor | Standard component. | Staging area for coils. | | Weighing | Optional. | Accurate coil weight measurement. | | Banding Station | Typically incorporates a Semi-Automatic Banding Station. | Automates the banding process compared to fully manual methods. | | Post-Banding Transfer | Manually operated monorail type crane with I.D. grab. | Transfers banded coils to skids (on floor or table). | ### Intermediate Packaging Lines Offers increased automation, particularly in coil transfer and stacking. | Feature | Description | Benefit | | :----------------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------ | :--------------------------------------------------------------- | | Automated Pick and Place Downlayer | Standard component. | Efficient coil handling. | | Coil Storage Conveyor | Standard component. | Staging and processing area. | | Weighing | Coils can be weighed on the conveyor. | Integrated weight measurement. | | Banding Station | Semi-Automatic or Fully-Automatic Banders available. | Flexible automation based on volume. | | Post-Banding Transfer | Automatic crane picks up and transports coils to multiple positions. | Automates stacking onto skids, reduces personnel requirements. | ### Advanced Packaging Lines Engineered for high-volume applications requiring maximum throughput and sortation capabilities. | Feature | Description | Benefit | | :----------------------------- | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :----------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Automated Pick and Place Downlayer | Standard component. | High-speed, protective coil transfer. | | Entry Storage Conveyors | Included. | Buffering for continuous operation. | | Weighing Conveyor | Standard component. | Integrated, high-speed weight measurement during transfer. | | Banding Station | Semi-Automatic is standard; Fully-Automatic Banders are also available. | Adapts to high throughput needs. | | Post-Banding Transfer | Automatic crane transports coils to an Automatic Sortation Table. | Automates movement to sorting area. | | Automatic Sortation Table | Allows different slit widths to be sorted and stacked in multiple positions (up to 8 depending on model). | Efficiently organizes diverse coil runs. | | Storage Conveyor | Skids are pushed onto this conveyor after stacking. | Staging area for finished, sorted stacks. | | Post-Stacking Weighing | Skids can be weighed on the Storage Conveyor. | Final weight verification for shipments. | | Powered Rotation Table | Available option. | Facilitates access and handling of stacks. | | Wrapping Station | Allows stacks to be easily stretch wrapped. | Provides protection for coils during shipping.
