Infeed Table
The infeed table has four ball-bearing rollers that guide the sheet metal to the infeed rollers. Thanks to the ball bearings, the sheet metal can be fed forward and backward without the risk of damaging the edges. They also help keep the material parallel and ensure perpendicular cuts.
Infeed Guide
The rollers of the infeed guide are angled to match the loop of the material from a decoiler. This prevents damage and creases to softer materials such as copper, aluminum, and zinc.
Control System F3
The F3 control system features adjustable speed settings and 20 program lines. The operator can program material, length, slit width settings, and the number of parts to be slit and cut. Thanks to the motorized raising and lowering of the slitting knives, waste is effectively minimized. All frequency converters, motors, and sensors are from reliable Siemens. The user-friendly control system with icons simplifies operation for everyone, regardless of language. Another feature of the control system on the POWER COMPACT PRO is the fully automatic material alignment. The operator enters the alignment value in the material table, and the control system calculates, controls, and adjusts the leveling rollers automatically.
Guillotine Shear
The guillotine shear is the perfect solution for customers looking for fast and smooth cutting of material. The shear operates with a carbon steel blade for long lifespan with a capacity of up to 14 ga (2 mm) in steel (400N/mm²). The reinforced frame ensures a smooth and consistent cutting motion. The guillotine shear in the POWER COMPACT PRO has built-in cutting gap adjustment as standard.
Straightening Rollers
The Forstner POWER STRAIGHT PRO is equipped with six straightening rollers that eliminate “coil memory” and consistently deliver flat sheets. The rollers are made of polished steel with a diameter of 4.3″ (110 mm). For more demanding applications, there are chrome-plated straightening rollers, also 4.3″ (110 mm) in diameter, for cleaner and more maintenance-free operation.
OPTION
Film applicator
The film applicator can basically be mounted on any table. Using the deflection rollers and the fully rubberized feed rollers, the protective film is pressed on almost bubble and wrinkle-free. The device type F-AG z2mo has an additional arm with tension spring for tensioning the film during the return movement. This design is only applicable for single decoiling systems.
OPTION
Table with roller
The coil guide is an important component for the function and accuracy of every system. The table has a fixed and a manually adjustable coil guide with ball bearings. The adjustment of the movable coil guide is done by a hand wheel. This specific table has rollers integrated in the table to ensure a smooth surface.
OPTION
Decoiler units
Choose from a simple cradle up to motorized versions. Read more under respectively product.
OPTION
Foot switch
Add a foot switch to your POWER STRAIGHT PRO for external start of the next order.
OPTION
Hardchromed straightening rollers
For more demanding applications and a longer life span we recommend the hard chromed shafts on the straightener.
OPTION
Manual coil selector
The manual coilselector is a very cost-effective solution for quick and easy manual sheet metal changes. Up to eight coils are fixed in the manual coilselector. The desired sheet metal is manually pushed into the downstream machine via a handwheel.
OPTION
Shear blades for stainless steel
Upgrade the guillotine shear with shearing blades for stainless steel. Available in both 49″ (1250 mm) and 59″ (1500 mm).
Film Application
Film application equipment can essentially be mounted on all our infeed tables. Thanks to support rollers and rubberized feed rollers, the film is pressed onto the sheet metal without the risk of bubbles or wrinkles. The F-AG z2mo module has an extra arm with a tension spring that tightens the film during the return motion. This design is only applicable to systems with one decoiler.
