Spiral Accumulator / Cone-Type Looper
Core Value
Stores strip in a spiral stack, offering the highest storage capacity per footprint area—ideal for high-speed lines.
Why You Need It
Extreme Speed: High-speed lines (>100m/min) change coils in seconds; a large accumulator is mandatory.
Limited Space: Vertical spiral design stores hundreds of meters within a 2-3 meter diameter, saving floor space vs. horizontal loopers.
Tension Sensitivity: The spiral path creates natural wrap angle, helping stabilize strip tension and reduce flutter.
Key Selling Points
Max Storage Density: Stores 3-5x more strip length than a U-type looper of the same diameter, supporting non-stop high speed.
Auto Tensioning: Floating cone or counterweight adjusts tension automatically as storage levels change.
Anti-Snaking Design: Spiral guides or rollers position the strip precisely layer by layer, preventing folding or edge overlap.
High-Speed Ready: Designed for 80-200+ m/min lines with…
