Tension Leveler For An 850 mm Cut To Length Line
A compact leveler for a narrow cut to length line producing blanks for electrical parts and automotive components.
Client Background
A processor running an 850 mm cut to length line producing blanks for electrical parts and automotive components from stainless and carbon steel coil. The customer name is confidential.
Project Challenge
Blanks were bowing after cutting, which showed up immediately in assembly, and the existing roll settings drifted through a coil as load changed.
Customer Pain Points
- Bow in small blanks visible during assembly
- Roll settings drifting through a coil
- Variable incoming strip straightness
- Limited floor length for a leveling section
Our Solution
A tension leveler dimensioned for the 850 mm line, with an open frame in continuously welded Q235A plate and a hydraulic servo system driving the pressing and swing mechanisms with sensor feedback, so work rolls are pre adjusted per coil and hold that setting through the run.
Scope Supplied
- Tension leveler sized for an 850 mm cut to length line
- Q235A welded open frame with machined roll seats
- Hydraulic servo positioning with sensor devices
- Work roll and support roll set
- Commissioning support and settings documentation
Manufacturing And Supply Chain
Frame fabrication, roll production and hydraulic assembly were completed in house, and the machine was run tested for roll response before shipment so commissioning on site was limited to line integration.
Line Review
Line width, material and thickness range confirmed before configuration.
Frame Fabrication
Plate cut, continuously welded, stress relieved and machined.
Roll Assembly
Upper and lower roll devices assembled with pressing and swing mechanisms.
Hydraulic Setup
Servo system commissioned and roll response tested before delivery.
Quality Control
Frame machining inspection, roll geometry verification, hydraulic pressure and response testing and sensor calibration records.
Final Result
Work rolls are now pre adjusted from the incoming thickness and straightness of each coil, and the setting is held through the run by the servo system rather than by operator intervention.
Customer Benefit
- Blanks that stay flat through to assembly
- Settings that hold through a coil instead of drifting
- A compact machine that fitted the available line length
- Documented settings per material and gauge
