SUNDCO-H, horizontal coil handling system.

The SUNDCO Conveyor is designed and developed especially to fulfil the needs of the Iron and Steel Industry.

The SUNDCO system offers the following solutions in the above areas:

1. Simple and heavy constructions and absence of components
    sensitive to steel works conditions.

2. Reduced maintenance costs due to:
    - absence of moving motors and central equipment.

3. Reduced floor space due to:
    - removal of all space consuming bends (All directional changes
      are made at an angle normally 90 degrees).
    - ability to rotate the hook automatically on the conveyor. Hook
    orientation can therefore be changed to suit the various stations.

4. Standardisation of conveyor sections means that the system can
    easily be modified or redesigned. For example, straight conveyor
    sections can be replaced with turn-tables, etc.

5. Hook stability is ensured by the use of a wide conveyor track
    coupled with a long hook carrier. The resulting large load bearing
    area means that the hook remains completely stable even with
    grossly off- centre loads.

6. Combining the SUNDCO conveyor with the SUND BIRSTA coil
    compactor enables us to interlock the two and substantially reduce
    cycle time.

7. Hook starting and stopping is controlled, mechanical equipment is
    installed away from the hook load.

Elevator

Coils are placed onto the C-hook by a stripper car at the reform station. The C-hook is moved up or down (depending on the mill lay-out) into the main level of the hook conveyor system type SUNDCO-H.

Hook Conveyor Line

The hook conveyor is tailor made to suit the mill lay-out requirements as: capacity, number of working stations, coil weight, required buffer zone and type of unloading station.

Trimming station, for trimming of coils.

The coil is lifted from the hook by a carriage (shuttle) with lifting beam. The beam can be rotated for better access and easier removal of waste waps.

Tracking system

The SUNDCO-system can be delivered with a Tracking system.
The system mainly consists of a number of reading units located at key-positions in the handling system. Each coil carrier is equipped with an identification tag.
The PLC-control system of handling is keeping track of the coils with the identification cards and the reading station.

Weighing system

Two main concepts are available.

On-line weighing:

Separate weighing station:
The station is located in the unloading area and consisting of a weighing rack.

SUND BIRSTA COIL COMPACTOR, type PCH-4KNA or PCH-4SBH

The Coil Compactor type PCH is available in various sizes depending on the coil size. The Compactor can be equipped with strapping or wire units.
Our latest development in this area is a combined compactor that can use both wire and strap. The only thing that needs to be changed is the wire or the strapping units.

Tag marking

SUND BIRSTA offer the marked various marking system from semi-automatic system to fully automatic marking and tagging system including automatic positioning of the tag on the coil.

Unloading station-Intermediate storage

SUND BIRSTA has various design of unloading system to fulfill the demand of tailor made system or requirements from the customer.

Electrical control system

The handling system is controlled by PLC-system and is fully automatic operated. The system includes operational panels for settings, information and eventually manually operations.

Hydraulic System

The Coil Compactor and the working stations are hydraulically operated and fed from a central unit.

ADVANTAGES OF THE SUNDCO-H

- Simple and heavy construction devoid of sensitive components

- Easy to extend due to standardisation of conveyor sections

- Excellent hook stability in all directions

- Hook can be oriented in any direction to suit the various working
stations

- Low maintenance costs due to utilisation of belt drive and no power
chain

- Low noise level and smooth operation

- Reduced coil to coil cycle time at the Coil Compactor station and
the various working stations due to optimised integrated handling
equipment
