1. Precision Slitting, Accurate Dimensional Control for Metal Sheets
2. Efficient Mass Production, Doubled Efficiency for Metal Sheet Processing
Machine Base: Adopts an integral welded structure with aging treatment to eliminate internal stress, featuring high rigidity and low vibration. It provides stable support for high-precision processing and ensures excellent long-term operation precision retention.
Uncoiler: Equipped with a hydraulic expanding reel suitable for coil inner diameters of Φ480-762mm and a maximum load capacity of 35T. Combined with a laser centering device and dynamic deviation correction system, it ensures stable and non-offset uncoiling, controlling slitting error within ±0.05mm—far exceeding the industry average of ±0.2mm.
Slitting Unit:
Arbor: Made of 42CrMo alloy steel with a diameter of over Φ225mm, runout ≤0.005mm, and minimal deflection;
Blades: Crafted from Cr12MoV or imported cemented carbide, with hardness HRC58-60. Support regrinding and reuse; combined with an optimized lubrication system, burr height can be controlled within 0.03-0.08mm;
Gap Adjustment: Automatic gap compensation technology for precise adaptation to shearing needs of materials with different thicknesses.
Recoiler: Constant tension winding system. The finished coil has an inner diameter of Φ508mm and an outer diameter ≤1900mm, with winding misalignment ≤1mm and tower deformation ≤2mm, ensuring neat coil shape.
Control System: PLC + touch screen human-machine interface, supporting parameter presetting, storage, and recall. Some high-end models can connect to MES systems for intelligent management.
Automatic Tool Change System: Adopts a patented auxiliary tool change system (Patent No.: CN119115622B), integrating robotic arms and intelligent monitoring functions. It realizes automatic tool replacement and status early warning, reducing tool change time from the traditional 30 minutes to within 5 minutes, greatly improving production continuity;
High-Speed Stable Transmission: Driven by servo motors with intelligent tension control, the maximum slitting speed can reach 300m/min, enabling 24/7 trouble-free operation and adapting to efficient processing of materials with thickness 0.1mm-20mm;
Modular Design: Supports quick replacement of arbors and pressure rollers, adapting to multi-specification processing needs with width range 20mm-2000mm. The equipment footprint is reduced by 40% compared with traditional models.

IV. Working Process & Operability
Feeding: The automatic feeding trolley transports the metal coil to the uncoiler, and the hydraulic expanding reel fixes the coil automatically;
Pretreatment: The coil is centered by the guiding device, tension-adjusted, and the laser deviation correction system corrects offset in real time;
Slitting: According to the preset width, the arbor rotates at high speed for slitting, and the scrap chopper processes the waste edge synchronously;
Winding: The slit narrow strips are neatly wound under constant tension control to avoid wrinkling and slipping;
Unloading: After the finished coil is completed, the unloading trolley transports it to the designated area automatically, with no manual intervention throughout the process.
V. Common Faults & Solutions
Fault Phenomenon | Causes | Solutions |
Unstable strip width | Loose tools, arbor gap deviation | Stop the machine to fasten tools and recalibrate arbor gap |
Excessive burrs | Worn tool edges, improper gap/overlap | Regrind or replace tools, adjust tool gap and overlap, optimize lubrication system |
Strip bending (excessive straightness error) | Overly tight guiding pressure plate, uneven drive rollers | Adjust the pressure of the pressure plate and calibrate the parallelism of drive rollers |
Uneven winding (end face deviation >2mm) | Non-parallel generatrix between recoiler and guiding rollers, coil insertion offset | Adjust the position of guiding rollers to ensure parallelism and insert the coil straight into the recoiler clamping groove |
High operation vibration | Loose machine base fixation, uneven material thickness | Reinforce the fixing bolts of the machine base, check material thickness and adjust tension parameters |
