Forstner COILFARM is a high-performance, innovative solution for storing and flexibly feeding a large number of sheet metal coils to Cut-to-Length (CTL) lines. This system revolutionizes coil inventory management by utilizing vertical space and automation to ensure immediate access to a wide assortment of materials (by thickness, quality, and color). Essentially, it is an automated coil “warehouse” integrated into the production flow.
Ultra-High Capacity: Capability to store up to 75 coils at maximum diameter, providing instant access to a wide range of materials.
Material Flexibility: Meets fluctuating market needs for the rapid availability of different thicknesses, steel grades, and color options.
Fast and Safe Changeover: Thanks to advanced gantry crane technology and an intelligent system, coil changeover is fast, safe, and uncomplicated, minimizing setup time.
Maximum Accuracy: An integrated "zero line" alignment system (fixed edge) ensures perfect material alignment with every feed, minimizing waste and errors.
Space Optimization: Uses vertical storage to save workshop floor space.
Simple Loading Process: Thanks to a special setup station and easy mandrel fixation, the coil loading process is intuitive and boosts productivity.
Track Storage System: Special rails for coil storage, available in several width options (to provide varying total capacity).
Gantry Crane: Robust crane structure running on a double track base for fast and precise coil positioning.
Dual Lifting Device: Mechanism for safe, fast, and efficient coil lifting and transportation.
HMI Control System: 19-inch industrial touch control panel for intelligent inventory management and coil selection.
Zero Line Alignment: Built-in function to ensure perfect material alignment before feeding.
Safety Zone: The system is placed in a separate safety zone, allowing loading and maintenance to be performed without interrupting the cutting machine's operation.
As COILFARM is a modular system, its final capacity and some technical parameters can be modified.
Maximum Storage Capacity: Extension of the track system to achieve the maximum capacity of up to 75 coils.
Extended Inner Coil Diameter Range: Capability to configure inner coil diameters, for example, 460–630 mm (instead of the standard 380–550 mm).
Laser Feed Measurement: A laser system for additional control of material measurement during feeding.
