Automatic Cut To Length (CTL) Machine

Category: Cut To Length Line | Manufactured by Gagan Engineering Works, Khopoli, Maharashtra

Automatic Cut To Length (CTL) Machine manufactured by Gagan Engineering Works Khopoli Maharashtra India

The Automatic Cut-to-Length (CTL) Machine manufactured by Gagan Engineering Works in Khopoli, Maharashtra is an automated, heavy-duty coil processing line designed for precision flattening, high-speed measuring, and burr-free shearing of metal coils up to 6.0 mm thickness. Built to process Hot Rolled (HR), Cold Rolled (CR), Galvanized Iron (GI), Stainless Steel, and Aluminium coils, the line integrates an automated 10-Ton Hydraulic Decoiler, a 9-roll gear-driven precision leveler, an optical rotary encoder measuring bridge, a heavy mechanical/hydraulic guillotine shear, and a powered exit run-out conveyor. The leveler features 9 high-strength EN31 alloy steel rollers (114 mm diameter, hardened to 50–52 HRC and ground to mirror finish) driven through a heavy-duty distribution gearbox to eliminate coil set, crossbow, and edge wave. Controlled by a centralized Delta/Siemens PLC touchscreen console with Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), the line maintains a high cutting length tolerance of ±0.5 mm at line speeds up to 20 meters per minute. Operators can program up to 20 variable batch cut lengths on the touchscreen interface with automated scrap minimization and piece counter displays. Extensively utilized by steel service centers, automotive stamping vendors, electrical panel manufacturers, and PEB fabrication plants across India and overseas.

Frequently Asked Questions — Automatic Cut To Length (CTL) Machine

What coil gauges and material grades can this automatic CTL line level and cut?

It processes coils up to 6.0 mm thickness in Mild Steel (MS), Galvanized Iron (GI), Stainless Steel, and Aluminium with strip widths up to 400 mm (or custom up to 1500 mm).

What is the sheet length accuracy and how is it measured?

An optical rotary encoder rolling directly against the moving strip feeds real-time pulses into the PLC, maintaining repeatable cutting tolerances of ±0.5 mm.

How does the 9-roll precision leveler eliminate sheet curvature and coil set?

The 9 staggered EN31 alloy rollers subject the metal strip to controlled reverse plastic bending, neutralizing residual stresses and yielding flat sheet blanks.

What is the daily tonnage capacity of this Cut-to-Length line?

Operating at 20 m/min, an 8-hour shift produces approximately 20 to 35 Metric Tons of precision cut blanks depending on sheet thickness and cut lengths.

Can different batch quantities and sheet lengths be programmed automatically?

Yes, the touchscreen PLC supports up to 20 recipe programs, allowing automated execution of varying sheet lengths and piece counts without stopping.

What electrical and hydraulic components are utilized in this machine?

We integrate genuine Yuken hydraulic valves and pumps, Delta/Siemens PLC controllers, and ABB/Schneider electrical switchgear for maximum reliability.
