A slitting line is a specialized production line used for processing metal sheets, primarily for cutting wide coils into multiple narrow strips. Below are the main components and workflow of a slitting line:
1. Uncoiler
Function: Unwinds the coil and feeds it into the production line.
Features: Typically equipped with hydraulic or mechanical expansion devices to ensure stable unwinding of the coil.
2. Leveler
Function: Eliminates curvature and internal stress in the coil to ensure the sheet is flat.
Features: Uses multiple sets of leveling rollers to repeatedly bend and straighten the sheet.
3. Slitter
Function: Cuts the wide sheet into multiple narrow strips.
Features: Equipped with multiple sets of circular blades, allowing adjustment of cutting width and quantity as needed.
4. Separator
Function: Separates the cut strips to prevent them from tangling.
Features: Typically uses guide rollers or separation plates.
5. Tension Control Device
Function: Controls the tension of the strips to ensure stability during cutting and rewinding.
Features: Adjusts in real-time through tension sensors and control systems.
6. Rewinder
Function: Rewinds the cut narrow strips into coils.
Features: Equipped with hydraulic or mechanical expansion devices to ensure tight and neat coils.
7. Control System
Function: Automatically controls the entire production process, including speed, tension, cutting width, and other parameters.
Features: Uses PLC and touchscreen interfaces for user-friendly operation.
8. Auxiliary Equipment
Function: Includes edge trimmers, lubrication systems, etc., to ensure efficient operation of the production line.
Features: Configured as needed to enhance production efficiency and product quality.
Workflow
1. Loading: Place the coil onto the uncoiler.
2. Unwinding: Unwind the coil and feed it into the leveler.
3. Leveling: Eliminate curvature and internal stress in the sheet.
4. Slitting: Cut the wide sheet into narrow strips.
5. Separation: Separate the cut strips.
6. Rewinding: Rewind the strips into coils.
7. Unloading: Remove and package the finished coils.
