Coe ships press feed line for fabrication of HVAC units

Coe Press Equipment, Sterling Heights, Mich., has shipped a coil processing line to Texas for feeding a 400-ton mechanical press. The stamping line is part of a flexible wrapper and control panel fabrication line producing 14 different-sized air conditioning units. The coil stock is fed into the press in variable increments as the louvers are stamped into the metal. The material being processed is 0.029-in.-thick cold-rolled steel.

The 48-in.-wide line is equipped with nonmarking chrome rolls for handling prepainted grade 60 material at up to 60,000 PSI. It can process materials from 0.030 to 0.125 in. thick, depending on the width, at up to 396 FPM.
