Why slitting is needed before tube mill production
Tube mills require steel strip with a suitable width for the target pipe size. A steel coil slitting line cuts wide coils into narrower strips before pipe production.
Main parts of a slitting line
A common line includes uncoiler, leveling unit, slitter head, scrap winder, tension unit and recoiler. The configuration depends on coil width, thickness and weight.
Connection with tube mill projects
For new pipe factories, a slitting line can be planned together with the tube mill line so raw material preparation, storage and production flow work together.
Need a slitting line matched with your ERW tube mill? Send coil width, coil thickness, material, target strip width and tube mill model so the engineering team can check a suitable configuration.
