The line will be able to process steel and aluminum coils to 72 by 3/8 in., and includes Fagor’s FASTR slitter tooling robot. Also included: automatic robotic de-banding, to enable safe coil loading; automatic threading cycles, to minimize operator intervention; and fully automatic CNC separators throughout the tension and recoiling sections.
