High‑Efficiency Horizontal Decoiling for Faster, Safer Coil Handling

PRI offers Accra‑Wire Controls (AWC) pallet decoilers designed to eliminate the wasted time, material damage, and safety risks associated with traditional upending and mandrel‑loading. These powered systems allow operators to run coils exactly as they arrive on the pallet—no flipping, no wrestling, no edge damage.

For stamping, roll forming, and wire‑forming operations, pallet decoilers are one of the fastest ways to reduce downtime and keep production moving.

Why Choose a Powered Pallet Decoiler?

AWC pallet decoilers are engineered to streamline coil handling and improve overall equipment efficiency. Key advantages include:

• Up to 90% faster changeovers — dramatically reduce press idle time
• Safer operation — no manual lifting or coil manipulation
• Less material damage — eliminates edge scuffing and clockspringing
• Better floor‑space utilization — run multiple coils directly from a pallet
• Simple loading — forklift places pallet directly on the decoiler
• Ideal for delicate materials — excellent for thin, narrow, or easily damaged stock

These systems are equally effective for heavier materials when paired with the appropriate options.

How It Works

The pallet decoiler accepts the coil on the same skid it ships on and unrolls it horizontally into a feeder, straightener, or forming line. The material remains controlled, tension stays consistent, and the line stays fed without interruption.

It’s a simple, efficient, and highly repeatable process—ideal for high‑volume production environments.
