Looping Systems

In applications where a straightener or leveler is not needed in the process, a pull-roll S-Loop guidance is an inexpensive option to pull material from a decoiler and provide stable loop control.

The guidance system controls the shape of the material through an S-Loop to reduce bouncing or swaying of the material during press operation. The S-Loop also delivers the material to the feeder in a free state and straight in-line with feed direction. Therefore, the feeder does not have to overcome effects of material weight hanging in a normal loop and does not have to pull the material around a curve.
