In this video, we're going to talk about coil handling, a crucial step in the can-making process.

Overview of Coil Handling Equipment

The coil handling equipment is always located close to the cupper, as its primary job is to move the aluminum coil into position for feeding into the cupper and initiating the can-making process.

Loading the Coil

The first step involves placing the aluminum coil onto the upender. In this video, a forklift is used for this task, although some plants may employ a hoist. Once the coil is on the upender, it is slid into position so that, when tilted, the coil will land on the coil car.

Upender Operation

After positioning, the upender tilts the coil ninety degrees. In this video, the process is sped up to illustrate the action; however, in practice, it is a slow and careful operation, as safety is a top priority.

Coil Car Movement

Once the coil is on the coil car, it rotates ninety degrees before sliding into position near the uncoiler. As it approaches the uncoiler, the coil car elevates to align the center of the aluminum coil with the center of the mandrel.

Feeding the Coil

The next step is to slowly feed the coil onto the mandrel. Once the coil is properly loaded and seated, the coil change team rotates the uncoiler, moving the old coil out of position and bringing the new coil into place.

Starting Production

The site navigation utilizes arrow, enter, escape, and space bar key commands. Left and right arrows move across top level links and expand / close menus in sub levels. Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.
