Question: Is your coil farm really automated if you still need to manually insert a mandrel?
SWI's Mandrel-Less CX-5 Coil Farm is the true automated solution.
With no mandrel insertion required, coils can be loaded in less than 2 minutes using either a forklift or overhead gantry crane. The CX-5 is compatible with multiple SWI slit lines and most roll-formers and can be configured with single, double, or triple-row gantries, with as many coil storage bays as your operation requires — delivering faster changeovers, improved safety, and maximum efficiency.
This recent installation features 52 storage bays, over 260 tonnes of coil storage capacity. From the first truck arriving on site to final commissioning, the entire system was installed in just 2 days — a testament to the experience, planning, and commitment of the SWI team.
