Slitting lines
Review centering at the decoiler feeding the slitter.
Retrofit web guiding · United States
Keep strip centered before it reaches your process.
Avenor reviews retrofit web guiding systems that measure material position and adjust the decoiler to help maintain center alignment on existing coil processing lines.

Applications for review
One retrofit concept. Evaluated against your line.
Cut-to-length lines
Assess strip position as material enters the CTL process.
Coil polishing and finishing
Check whether decoiler movement can support tracking into the finishing section.
Other continuous strip lines
Review line geometry, controls and mechanical arrangement before confirming fit.
The system is intended for continuous strip processes with a suitable decoiler or guiding mechanism. Coil storage, cranes and transport equipment are not assumed to be compatible.
How it works
Start at the material path and the existing machine.
The retrofit is reviewed around the installed line, operating conditions and controls. Avenor confirms the engineering basis before defining scope, price and schedule.
Measure
Measuring bars read material width and position relative to the line center.
Display and set
The PLC and HMI present position, width, operating status and alarms.
Adjust
The control system commands decoiler movement through the approved hydraulic interface.
Commission
Installation, startup and acceptance criteria are defined for the specific project.
System visuals
From strip measurement to operator control.
See the HMI demonstration, then explore the sensing and decoiler-positioning concepts. The video and HMI are examples; final configuration is defined for each project.
Reference design basis
Technical parameters from one coil-to-coil application.
These values describe the SRM reference proposal. They are not universal ratings; Avenor confirms the design basis for each line.
- Material
- Stainless steel
- Thickness
- 0.5–3 mm
- Cutting width
- 1,550 mm
- Maximum line speed
- 30 m/min
- Centering resolution
- Approximately ±1 mm under ideal installation and clean operating conditions
- Hydraulic supply
- Connection to an existing variable-displacement hydraulic power unit in the reference configuration
Final compatibility and performance depend on line layout, material, speed, available space, mechanical condition, hydraulics and controls.
