The machine integrates a coil reel, straightener, and feeder, designed for efficient material handling in space-constrained manufacturing environments. The COE eagle emblem is prominently displayed on the decoiler. This system is engineered for precision feeding and straightening of metal coils, optimizing production efficiency in industries such as automotive and metal fabrication.

COE Press Equipment has shipped and installed a SpaceMaster Series 3 compact coil line to Ameristar Manufacturing, a full-service metal fabricator based in Mankato, Minnesota. This all-in-one compact coil line integrates unwinding, straightening, and feeding functions in a single, space-efficient system — ideal for pressrooms with limited floor space.

Unlike traditional feed lines that can require over 30 sq-ft., the SpaceMaster Series 3 fits within just 15.33 sq-ft., helping Ameristar optimize valuable production space without sacrificing performance.

Compact Coil Line Capabilities

  • Material Thickness: 0.010” to 0.187”
  • Coil Width: Up to 20”
  • Coil Weight: Up to 11,000 lbs.
  • Material Types: CRS, HRS, stainless steel, aluminum
  • Line Speed: Up to 60 strokes per minute (SPM)

Built-In Features for Efficient Operation

The system includes standard features that enhance coil containment, safety, and setup speed:

  • Powered coil guides
  • Hydraulic hold-down with motorized endwheel
  • Pivoting peeler-debender for efficient threading

These features support hands-free coil threading and precise strip feeding, minimizing downtime and operator intervention.

Compact Design. Full Performance.

With its minimal footprint and full-featured capability, the SpaceMaster Series 3 is ideal for high-mix, low-volume operations, job shops, and any manufacturer needing to maximize floor space without compromising on coil processing performance.
