? Relatively low labor for packaging.
? Potential to eliminate eye bands.
? Flexibility in system design.
? Environmentally friendly package that can be unwrapped in under a minute, and the material isrecyclable.
? Increased yield from coils for customers.
? Safer work environment resulting in fewer injuries.

Summary

CoilMaster is proven technology for wrapping coils axially through the eye. Coils are loaded onto driven blocker rolls, scanned to measure the diameter, and data sent to a PLC. The wrapping process is then executed with the touch of a button. The wrapper opens to accept the coil and then closes forming a continuous circuit through the eye of the coil. A shuttle device travels around the circuit through the eye of the coil at the same time the coil is rotated on its axis. A film is dispensed by the shuttle thereby sealing theentire body of the coil. One operator can control the process using a user-friendly PLC and graphic displaywith self-diagnostic software. Secondary packaging materials can be integrated with the system.Benefits include 100% open eye, superior protection against corrosion, potential for reduced usage of oilsand elimination of eye bands, increased ability to ship via rail, increased yield for customers, reduced labor for packaging, safer work environment, ability to unpack-age in under one minute, and recyclable packaging material.
