Two shaftless self loading roll stands cradle rolls weighing up to 10,000 lbs.
(4,545kg) in position whilst the sheeter is running.
The overhead automatic splicing system, joins the end of one roll to the beginning of the other whilst the sheeter speed exceeds 800fpm (240mpm) which eliminates down time associated with roll changes, said the company.
