Chinese producer Henan Mingtai Al. Industrial Co. Ltd. chose Danieli Fröhling technology for its new high-speed trimming line.
The new line will make it possible to trim lighter gauge strip in high-speed mode up to 1,500 mpm, as well as to apply intermediate trimming of material up to 2.5 mm thickness.
Incoming strip may be as wide as 2,650 mm with a maximum coil weight of 28 ton. In addition to the standard trimming application, up to three finished strips may be slit from the incoming material. For this reason, a CNC-trimming shear with eight individually driven and automatically adjustable knife heads is provided, and the line is designed with two recoilers. Direct connections from and to a high-bay storage shall ensure an optimized material flow.
Danieli’s scope of supply includes the complete mechanical system, from the coil entry side and in-line coil preparation process, to side trimming/slitting, scrap suction and recoiling.
Electrical components and the L1 and L2 automation systems for the entire line will be supplied by Danieli Automation.
Line startup is expected by mid 2018.
