COE Press Equipment announced that it has recently installed a new coil processing line at Centerline Engineering (Comstock Park, Mich.), a provider of metal stamping die design and build services. The line consists of a 72-in. COE servo roll feed, a 60-in. x 152-in. scissor lift table, a 5.00-in. x 72-in. HD-series heavy duty straightener and a 50,000-lb. x 72-in. coil reel.
Given the robust design of the heavy duty straightener, the line is capable of processing a variety of material including cold rolled steel (CRS), advanced high strength steels (AHSS), and aluminum. The roll feed can achieve a speed of 296 feet/minute with a feed accuracy of + 0.003-in. Installed in late 2017, the line is being paired with a new 2500-ton Eagle press being used for die tryout.
In addition to the equipment, COE also provided installation, startup and technical training to Centerline.
