Maximize cutting productivity and meet the demands
of growing trends in the HVAC duct construction industry
with the Iowa Precision Coil Feed designed for the upload and reloading of coil production for either a plasma or laser-cutting tables. A highly integrated system with wireless capabilities to eliminate the need to load material by hand, the coil feed can further enhance productivity with the additional of optional down-bead or up-bead patter.
The Iowa Precision Coil Feed system is comprised of a drive motor and a series of rolls to feed and remove coil set from the material. The material is advanced by the operator using an on/off switch. This allows the operator to follow the material to proper location along the cutting table. Drive is by way of entry pinch rolls and exit pinch rolls. Straightening is accomplished with rolls located between the entry and exit rolls, which are controlled by way of a hand wheel for depth penetration. Length of feed is at the operator’s discretion, as the machine does not measure the material. Plasma or laser cut-off of the sheet length is standard, optional sheet cut-off system is available.
Down-bead or up-bead pattern is rolled into the coil as it is being fed onto the cutting table. The bead pattern is produced by bead rings that ride in grooves machined into a pair of pinch rolls with the the bottom roll powered and the top roll adjustable up and down by means of a hand wheel. The bead pattern is not intended to be a half radius, but more of a rounded shallow vee to form a cross break in the material for stiffening.
