COIL SLITTING IN A CHANGING MARKET

Here's a terrific article from CoilWorld Magazine on some brand new (and coming in the near future) changes in coil slitting (and how it can affect your business!).

SLITTING GOES STATE-OF-THE-ART

As the economy improves, the way that steel is bought and processed will take on more exacting demands. Efficiency will be King. To blaze the way, Dalco has installed a new, high-performance Double-Loop Turret Head Slitting Line, equipped with a Shape-Correction Cluster Leveler in our newly-expanded Walworth, WI facility. This new line can slit and shape correct 50,000# x 65" wide hi-strength pickled, cold rolled and galvanized carbon steel coils in gauges from .187" through .010" at processing speeds to 1,000 FPM.
