The accumulator is installed between the shear & welder and the forming line. Its purpose is to give enough time for feeding the new coil from uncoiler to shear & welder and for the shear & welder to cut and join front end of the new coil with tail end of previous coil.
Detail
Rolls are manufactured out of AISI D2, D3 or equivalent steel. Material is annealed, hardened and tempered to get hardness of 60 ± 2 HRC. Rolls profiles are precisely turned at high speed on CNC Turning machine using ceramic tips to get the desired surface finish.
Flying Saw is to cut the pipe into a given length while it is traveling. In order to operate continuously, it is necessary to synchronize the cut off machine with the speed of the tube, so as to accurately keep the tubes length during the cutting cycle.
Entry section starts from uncoiler to accumulator, The coil is loaded to the uncoiler by crane. The coil tension and brake system between uncoiler and leveler shall be done. Hold down roll operated by hydraulic cylinders holds and rotates the coil for cutting the strap bend by peeler.
