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.
