ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a metal coil handling system that allows the user to fully automate operations involving the conventional unwrapping of the leading end of a coil of metal from the remainder of the metal coil and subsequently threading the said leading end of the coil through rolling mill entry rolls. The invention includes equipment for disengaging and peeling this leading end of the coil away from the remainder of the coil and for holding the peeled length of metal coil strip taut throughout the mill feeding operations. The instant handling system eliminates or minimizes frictional scratches in the body of the coil normally caused by unwrapping and rewrapping of the leading end of metal during mill feeding operations. The arrangement of the aforesaid devices is also such that normal passage and movement of the main body of the coil to the mill is not obstructed and easy access to the same is always available for troubleshooting and maintenance purposes with minimum disturbance of metal coil being processed on the mill.
