Behind the reels of the new hot strip mill, the steel coils are transferred to the AMOVA pallet conveyor system, which takes them, with coil axis horizontal, to the storage area. An inspection line is integrated into the coil conveyor, with a strip turnover device that folds up by 90°, so that the cut-off coil sample can be quickly checked for defects from both sides. The sample is pre-positioned at an ergonomic height depending on the coil width. The shears and the pinch-roll and levelling unit were designed for lower material strengths and thicknesses in order to be able to offer the customer a cost-effective solution.
