What Is The Purpose Of Metal Slitting Machine?

2025-07-08

"Metal Slitting Machine, also known as coil slitting machine, metal slitter, metal slitter machine, is an industrial equipment specially used for slitting metal coils. The main function of Metal Slitting Machine is to cut metal coils into strips of different widths as required, and to wind these strips into small coils for subsequent processing. Metal Slitting Machine is widely used in transformers, motors, home appliances, automobiles, building materials, packaging industries, etc., especially when processing materials such as tinplate, galvanized iron, silicon steel sheets, cold-rolled strips, stainless steel strips, aluminum strips and steel strips.

In different industries, Metal Slitting Machine has different processing purposes and needs. Next, KINGREAL SLITTING will explain in detail about: The Purpose Of Metal Slitting Machine"

Purpose of Metal Slitting Processing


1.Metal Slitting Processing For Order Quantity

In order to improve production efficiency, steel mills have a demand trend of wide width and large unit weight of finished steel coils. This is mainly because the end users have detailed service requirements such as multiple varieties, small quantities, and timely supply. This requires suppliers to purchase a metal slitter near the user to open a steel coil processing and distribution center, and supply customers with metal slitting processing according to the specified width, specified weight, and even the specified outer diameter. The processing accuracy of the specified width will vary depending on the purpose and the next process. For example, the requirements for continuous die stamping materials are stricter than those for single die stamping materials. Particularly representative are electrical steel plates, integrated circuit lead frames, and waste-free processing (that is, the longitudinal shearing edge is directly used as the finished product), which also limits the width accuracy and strip snaking (sickle bend).

 

2. Metal Slitter For Specified Length (Unit Weight)

When metal coil slitter is sent to the customer's factory for stamping, it is required to have a large unit weight (the length of the steel strip should be as long as possible) to improve production efficiency. New factories can prepare corresponding equipment to accept steel coils with large unit weights, but old factories or small and medium-sized enterprises cannot accept steel coils with small outer diameters and small unit weights. The segmented delivery in the length direction (i.e., small unit weight) also leads to low production efficiency of the steel coil metal slitter equipment processing center.

 

3.Metal Slitting Machine For Defect Removal Processing and Inspection

When steel mills produce in large quantities, there will always be some defects that are not seen. However, it is not good to hand it over to the user like this, so the bad parts must be removed in the final process (Metal Slitting Processing Process). Therefore, the steel mill is required to provide defect information such as the parent material expansion diagram, and check it during processing.

 

Of course, in principle, Metal Slitting Machine processing should not cause scratches, crushing, edge damage and other problems. Especially when the surface gloss is strictly required, a strict daylight surface inspection must be carried out before winding. Metal Slitting Machine factories should purchase high-end related configuration equipment that does not damage the surface of the plate as much as possible, otherwise it is difficult to ensure that no new scars or defects are added during the production process.


4.Metal Coil Slitter For Rewinding and Reprocessing

The end user's Metal Coil Slitter processing specified width varies greatly, so there is always a time when it is uncertain. There are many different cutting methods to maximize the material utilization rate when cutting wide steel coils, and most of them are determined by human feeling. There is no rule to avoid individual differences (a kind of stunt). Recently, there are many methods for optimal cutting with the help of computers, and some half-rolled steel coils are often produced.

 

These half-rolls can be cut in the width direction on the metal slitting line, or connected to the head and tail on the slitting line to make a large single weight steel coil. Sometimes there is also an operation to rewind the steel coil that has been coiled poorly.

 

Metal slitting machine is not only suitable for metal processing industry, but also for sheet metal products enterprises such as metallurgy, vehicles, metal products, electrical and electrical, pressure vessels, chemical machinery as raw material preparation, as well as metal material storage, sheet distribution and other circulation industries. In addition, by combining with other equipment such as Cut To Length Line, it can form a combine metal slitting and cut to length blanking line, further improving production efficiency and flexibility.
