Pallet decoilers allow coils to pay off directly from a skid without upending the coil or manipulating to a mandrel. They shorten coil changeover time since multiple coils can be stacked on the same skid and often minimize the required floor space for coil feeding systems.
Pallet decoilers are available to work with almost any flat coil material including: paper, plastic, and all types of metal. They may also be configured to work with wire coils and wire stacks.
Accra-Wire Controls Inc. Pallet Decoilers
A pallet decoiler has typically been used for stock widths ≤ to 6” and thicknesses under .060” at relatively short feed/pitch lengths. But Accra-Wire has developed loop management control systems and drives that greatly expand the flexibility of these devices so that coil widths up to 24” and material thicknesses to .125” can be processed at higher speeds.
- Configurations are available with high drive horsepower to work with roll form lines that require rapid acceleration to full line speed.
- Requires no slack loop
- AWC tension control system
- Change table rotation with the flip of a switch
- Regenerative DC drive controls speed, acceleration and deceleration
- Fully adjustable guide rollers
- Table stem system for pallet centering
- Versatile to handle most press, roll forming, and slide forming applications
Rapid-Air Pallet Master Pallet DecoilerS
