Coil Line—Shear-n-Bend

Category: Tag:

The second of Vicon’s “Front End” Coil Lines, the “Shear-N-Bend” was designed for those shops whose straight duct is primarily “S” & Drive and goes out to the job site in nested two piece L sections. The defining characteristic of the “Shear-N-Bend” is that it terminates with the Braking Station that makes the mid bend as well as the Right Angle Male Snaplock or Male Pittsburgh.

Standard features include decoilers, feed rolls, beading, notching, shear and bending. Available with overfed or underfed coil spindles. Dual Drive Turn Rolls are also available as is the side eject conveying system to Dual Female Snaplock and Pittsburgh.
