Protect your high-value metal coils from costly surface damage with an automated paper or plastic interleaving system that reduces manual labor. At Machine Concepts, we engineer and build highly automated and fully automated paper or plastic interleaving equipment for entry and exit points of coil processing lines. Our solutions provide significant advancement over manual methods, delivering consistent results, improved safety, and reduced labor dependency.
Questions or interested in a quote?
Our interleaving systems insert a protective paper or plastic film layer between metal strips during coil winding operations. This barrier prevents cosmetic surface damage, such as scratches and abrasions, that can occur when metal surfaces contact each other inside a coil. Systems can be integrated at both entry (winding) and exit points (interleaving) of your processing line.
Our interleaving equipment is designed for operations processing high-value metals such as copper, brass, and stainless steel, particularly when running bright materials for appearance-critical applications, including:
- Automotive trim and body panels
- Transit vehicle exteriors (buses and subway cars)
- Appliances
Complete Turnkey Systems
We provide complete turnkey interleaving solutions engineered for your specific application. Features may include:
- Static charge bar to apply a controlled static charge to the interleaving material for superior adhesion to the metal surface.
- Precision applicator roll to press the interleaving material firmly against the metal, eliminating air pockets and wrinkles.
- Surrounding structural supports and mezzanine platforms.
- Hoists and lifting rigs for safe handling of paper and plastic rolls.
- Complete control system integration with existing line equipment.
- All auxiliary equipment needed for seamless operation.
