COE Press Equipment (Sterling Heights, MI) has announced the installation of their “Fineblanking Edition” HD straightener, coil reel with HD hold-down arm, and “alligator” style peeler threader at UTIL Canada (Concord, ON), a leading backing plate manufacturer in North America. This straightener provides the necessary roll force delivery and rigidity required to achieve the flatness and tolerance required for producing near net shape blanked parts.
In addition to the 5 in x 24 in power straightener, the equipment includes a 24 in x 18 in threading table offering hands-free threading capability, and a 15,000 lb x 24 in coil reel with multiple hydraulic hold downs with motorized endwheels for effective coil containment. This feed line is capable of processing high strength steels up to 90,000 psi yield at thicknesses from 0.118 in to .475 in, depending upon the width of the material. It can achieve a payoff rate up to 80 fpm. COE Press also provided installation, startup and training assistance to UTIL.
