CUT TO LENGTH LINES

ALCOS Cut to Length Lines provide a fast, efficient means of creating precision levelled blanks from coil. Our lines can be customized to suit a client’s plant layout.

Lines can be supplied to process material up to 72 ins. wide, .500 ins. thick and 80,000 lbs. coil weight. In line crop shearing and auto scrap disposal system ensures that over gauge strip does not pass through the leveller.

Our in line levelers can produce panel flat material and are provided in 4HI, 5HI, 6HI configurations for surface critical material. Operator friendly controls are provided with remote pc based touch screen systems and auto memory systems.

Flatteners can also be provided to supplement the in line leveller or as a stand-alone process for heavier materials.

“Back to Back” levelers can also be provided to ensure panel flat quality through a wider material range.

Edge trimming can be done with the use of our many slitters or an edge trimming system can also be incorporated into the line.  Slitters are provided with ALCOS composite tooling or shimless tooling to provide precise slit edges. Digital tooling set up systems enable rapid and accurate tooling set up.

Edge scrap systems can be baller, winder, or chopper, depending upon customers preference. Our lines include our precision rollfeed units, which utilise precision servo control systems to ensure precise cut length tolerance and diagonal accuracy.

Roll feed surface finish ensures non-marking of the process material surface. ALCOS high speed shears are included in the line and are equipped with a convenient “one point” blade adjustment or Automatic gap adjustment, to enable easy set up from various gauge of material. Centralised lubrication systems are provided, and a high speed disc type clutch and brake and solid state control ensures accurate shear timing.

ALCOS cut to length lines are engineered and constructed to meet specific end user needs for precision, production requirements and material parameters. 

Types of lines are; Stop/Start; Flying Die; and Precision Roll Feed lines and continuous with a Rotary Shear.
