ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for use in a rolling mill in compacting an upstanding cylindrical product coil. The apparatus includes a compacting station having a base platen divided into laterally spaced sections and an overlying vertically movable upper platen. A transport mechanism is employed to carry a coil laterally from a receiving station into the compacting station at an operative position between the platens. The transport mechanism includes a mandrel extending axially through the coil and an elevator head which is held by the mandrel in a raised position supporting the coil bottom at a level above the base platen. Thereafter, a lowering of the upper platen is accompanied by a corresponding gradual axial retraction of the mandrel and a lowering of the elevator head to the level of the base platen. This results in an axial compaction of the coil between the platens while the mandrel continues to provide internal support for the coil. Suitable retaining bands or straps are applied to the compacted coil, after which the upper plate, mandrel and elevator head are returned to their raised positions, and the transport mechanism is employed to move the compacted banded coil laterally from the compacting station to a delivery station.
