New 72-in. Stretcher-Leveler at Alliance Steel
February 1, 2017Comments
Alliance Steel, Bedford Park, IL, installed a Red Bud high-efficiency stretcher-leveler that boasts 90,000-lb. coil capacity and can handle material widths to 72 in. and thicknesses to 0.4 in. This line features Red Bud’s SureGrip technology and is capable of a 40-ft. stretch in a cycle time of less than 8 sec. The stretcher-leveler is complemented by two inline Bradbury E-Drive corrective levelers to ensure flatness and nearly stress-free results, according to Alliance Steel officials.
The equipment addition adds to Alliance Steel’s existing flat-roll capabilities, including slitting, leveling, multi-blanking and cold reduction.
