A Good News to Metal Slitting and Cut-to-Length Lines in Our Factory

Transforming large steel or aluminum coils into precise strips and sheets is crucial for many manufacturing sectors. Whether you’re supplying construction panels, appliance parts, or automotive components, selecting the right slitting or cut-to-length equipment ensures smooth production, tight tolerances, and minimal material loss.
Simple Slitting Line vs. Precision Slitting
• Simple Slitting Line: Tolerance ±0.1–0.5 mm, speed up to 15 m/min, ideal for general-purpose metal coils.
• Precision Slitting: Tolerance ±0.05 mm, features rigid frames and feedback controls, suited for critical applications.

What Is a Metal Slitting Machine?
A metal slitting machine breaks down wide metal coils into multiple narrow strips called “slits.” The process unfolds in four stages:
1. Uncoiling: A heavy coil is unwound at a controlled pace.
2. Leveling: Flattening rollers remove coil set and straighten the strip.
3. Slitting: Rotary blades slice the material lengthwise.
4. Recoiling: The strips are rewound onto smaller spools.
This method is common in construction, HVAC, automotive, and appliance fabrication.

What Is a Cut-to-Length (CTL) Line?
A CTL line adds a shear after leveling to cut sheets to precise lengths. Typical flow: Uncoiler → Leveler/Straightener → Shear → Stacker. Length tolerances often within ±0.5 mm.
