The wire is fed from a dual payoff system which allows one coil to be loaded while the other is being processed, with the ends being buttwelded during operation. The payoff is mounted on a swivel base to allow the full coil to be rotated into position.
The machine has roller reducing units to provide the required reduction in cross sectional area and to introduce the profiling onto the wire. The final profiling rollers are driven by AC motors with frequency controlled drives. The wire is straightened in a conventional straightening arbor and is cut to length in a rotating shear assembly. Length is determined from an electronic length input control. Wires are discharged into a receiving tray with a pneumatic end alignment system. The IPC13 line is a fully integrated line for the production of straight lengths of high tensile steel bar for reinforcing purposes or for line/cross wires for welding into reinforcing fabric. |
