Fagor Arrasate has supplied Flachstahl Werl with its third slitting line with coil banding. The service center has become the German market leader in the use of the technology.
The new equipment is a premium line that incorporates all the latest technologies and automation available, allowing it to achieve the highest levels of productivity and reach the most demanding standards of surface quality, the company claims. It can handle material in thicknesses from 0.3 to 6 millimeters.
The new equipment allows Flachstahl Werl to process and cut material at high rates and with the quality required for the automotive industry, thanks to its different tensioning systems. Specifically, it incorporates a system of belt bridle and a tensioner with felt pads for different types of steel, Fagor Arrasate claims.
