HSS-HIGH SPEED WIRE ROD CROP SHEAR
Head and tail trimming at 120 m/s of 4.5÷32-mm-dia wire rod
BENEFITS
- Automatic on-line trimming of 4.5 to 22-mm-dia wire rod at production speeds of up to 120 m/s;
- Manpower saving: two less operators minimum per shift;
- Improved material yield thanks to optimized/repetitive cropping length; (+ 0.3% average)
- Low operational/maintenance cost; (up to 3 days once a year)
- Constant quality on the whole coil due to the elimination of un-cooled front and tail ends;
- Machine compactness: only 2,700 mm machine overall length, (shorter than any other high-speed shear design available), easing machine fitting in existing plants;
- Fast Return On Investment (ROI): 6 months.
