Autonomous Flatness at Production Speed
Monotech Engineers Pvt. Ltd. presents the Fully Automatic Straightening Machine engineered to correct coil set, cross bow, and edge wave on mixed quality scrap sheets and strips with minimal operator input. A high stiffness frame, precision ground work rolls, and a PLC/HMI driven automation suite with servo penetration and sensor feedback deliver repeatable flatness, high throughput, and full traceability for service centers and fabrication lines. Available for widths 300–1600 mm and thickness ranges 0.5–8 mm (MS), with custom models for stainless, aluminum, and high strength grades, turnkey lines include decoiler, loop control, servo feeder, shear, and stacking automation to streamline end to end processing.
Automation core: Industrial PLC/HMI runs closed loop control of roll penetration, crown compensation, speed, and pass schedules; one touch recipe start triggers an auto threading sequence to minimize setup time and scrap.
Work roll cassette: 7/9/11 precision ground, induction hardened alloy steel rolls with synchronized entry/exit pinch rolls ensure stable feeding and contact; optional chrome finish supports coated stock.
Backup system: Multi row backup bearings beneath each work roll limit deflection to preserve flatness uniformity across the strip width, enhancing downstream quality.
Drives: An electro mechanical main drive with helical gearbox and VFD maintains consistent surface speed, while servo actuators position penetration and left/right crown trim with high repeatability.
Structure: A stress relieved welded frame with heavy side plates and tie bars reduces vibration and supports long term geometric accuracy under continuous duty.
Sensors: Load/current monitoring with optional laser or roller flatness sensing at exit, entry edge guides, and loop control provide the inputs required for fully automatic pacing and adaptive correction.
One touch flatness: Auto mode selects penetration curves, speed, and crown from the recipe and adapts using feedback to handle scrap variability without frequent operator intervention.
Quality assurance: The HMI logs flatness settings, alarms, production counters, and energy data, enabling batch wise traceability and continuous improvement.
Surface preservation: Polished, hardened rolls and an optimized wrap path limit print through; chrome rolls and PU pinch options further protect sensitive surfaces.
Rapid changeovers: Recipe management with barcode/ID recall, teach mode capture, and automatic roll back to safe position accelerates threading, maintenance, and repeat jobs.
• Complete Cut To Length line: Motorized decoiler with hydraulic mandrel, loop pit or dancer, servo feeder, flying or guillotine shear, magnetic/air blast part ejection, and stacker with alignment for turnkey automation.
• Quick change cassette: Tool less roll cartridge removal supports polishing and alternate roll sets for different materials and finishes.
• Advanced flatness sensor: Laser array with automatic correction table generation by material/width tightens tolerance control and shortens dial in time.
• Remote connectivity: Secure diagnostics, recipe backup/restore, and predictive maintenance alerts enhance responsiveness and OEE tracking.
