This high-capacity coil slitting line is built to support exactly

In today’s shifting global trade environment, manufacturers are increasingly prioritising supply-chain resilience, nearshoring and regional agility. This high-capacity coil slitting line is built to support exactly that — enabling production facilities to accept large incoming coils, process them in-house with high flexibility, and supply narrow width strips swiftly and locally, reducing dependence on fragmented supply-chains or distant processing centres.

Key Specifications

Coil width: up to 2,500 mm — broad enough to accept wide‐format mother coils and maximise yield from each delivery.

Coil weight: up to 35 tons — accommodating heavy coils means fewer shipments and less frequent coil changeovers, which is advantageous when supply‐chain logistics are uncertain.

Strip output: Up to 50 strips per mother coil — this high strip-count capability allows plants to respond rapidly to multiple customer widths from a single incoming coil, supporting agile production for regional markets.

Thickness range: 0.2 to 9.0 mm — covering ultra-thin through medium gauge, allowing flexibility in product mix when customer demands change locally.

Speed range: 0 to 300 m/min — enabling both delicate slow‐speed processing for specialist materials and high-speed runs for volume jobs, which helps when lead-times must be shortened.

Tension units: Felt Plate / Belt Bridle / Rolls — offering selectable tension control to handle different materials (e.g., aluminium vs high-strength steel) with minimal surface damage, fewer rejects and less downstream rework.

Slitter head: Double Slitter or Turnstile design — designed for rapid tooling changeover, high precision and delivering multiple strips efficiently, which is valuable when shorter regional runs or mixed‐order widths are required.

Supply-Chain & Regional Manufacturing Advantages

When supply-chain disruptions arise — whether via transport delays, import restrictions or shipping costs — having a slitting line capable of wide coil acceptance (2,500 mm width) and heavy coil weight (35 tons) empowers a facility to reduce frequency of inbound coil deliveries, thereby lowering dependency on just-in-time narrow‐coil supply. The ability to slit into up to 50 strips per coil means a single high‐value coil can serve multiple downstream customers or multiple strip widths, increasing local responsiveness.

Material versatility across HSS, CRS, HRS, SS and aluminium means the plant can adapt to changing material supply conditions. If imports of one material shift, the same line can accept another substrate without needing a separate dedicated line — enhancing flexibility in a volatile market. The selectable tension-unit modes (felt plate / belt bridle / rolls) ensure that material transitions (say from aluminium to high-strength steel) can be handled without major retooling, minimising downtime and supporting rapid response to local demand changes.

Further, the slitter head’s double slitter or turnstile configuration supports fast changeover — critical when regional production demands vary in strip widths or order sizes. This flexibility supports regional service centres feeding multiple customers or niche job sizes rather than large standard runs — a strategic advantage when global logistics are costly or uncertain.

Operational & Economic Impacts

By reducing reliance on external slit coil deliveries and shipping narrow width strips from distant mills, this line helps localise value-add, reduces lead-times and can lower shipping and import risk. The broader width and high coil weight mean fewer coil handlings per ton produced, improving throughput and lowering per‐ton processing cost. The system’s high strip count capability means more efficient use of each coil, reducing leftover edge scrap and enabling tighter stock control — beneficial when material supply is tight or variable.

In markets where rapid response is critical (such as regional automotive suppliers, local appliance manufacturers or roll-formers serving nearby construction markets), this slitting line gives a manufacturing centre the agility to remain competitive even under challenging supply-chain conditions.
