Straightener-Feeder assembled on common base weldment provides for
alignment of all units and easy location and installation with no
special foundation.
All
units are heavy plate welded construction.
Base
includes provisions for anchoring to floor.
Digital
controls and brushless servo motor provides excellent accuracy and
repeatability performance.
Measurement
wheel with encoder monitors movement of the strip for precise feed
length measurement. Actual
movement of the material is measured, not the rotation of the rolls.

gear drive to work rolls, no chains or belts; gears in oil bath.
All
rolls are hardened 58/60 HRC.
Hydraulic
motors control work roll depth settings.
Work
roll depth indicated by digital readouts on the control panel.
