Edge Trimming, Slitting and Recoiling Units for Stainless Steel and Armored Steel Strip — three models covering 1–25 mm wide strip up to 2 mm thick, at line speeds up to 300 m/min, with hydraulic expansion shafts and precise meter counting.

Steel Strip Edge Trimming & Winding Units

The unit unwinds the incoming strip, trims or slits the edges to width, shapes the strip profile and rewinds it under controlled tension. Key working elements:

​

  • Adjustable trimming tools (up/down and forward/back adjustment on the XL-SS-13, with customizable tool quantity)

  • Hydraulic expansion shaft for stable strip centering and rewinding (XL-SS-11)

  • Servo constant-tension winding with oil-cylinder-controlled coil diameter

  • Variable frequency speed adjustment with PLC and touch screen control

  • Disk-driven ball screw traversing, as used across the Xinglian winding program


Complete lines can be customized around the trimming and recoiling core with drawing, edge trimming, inlay, bright pickling, ultrasonic cleaning, annealing and coating processes.

Three models — reference slitting and winding unit, narrow 300 type and 800 type for medium-wide and armored strip.

Models XL-SS-11, XL-SS-12, XL-SS-13

  • Stainless steel strip edge trimming and rewinding for strip producers and service centers

  • Armored (armouring) steel strip for cable armouring applications

  • Metal narrow strip slitting, shaping and precision rewinding, including ultra-thin strip on the XL-SS-12

  • Custom complete lines combining drawing, edge trimming, inlay, bright pickling, ultrasonic cleaning, annealing and coating steps

Where the steel strip edge trimming and recoiling units are deployed.

Applications

Trimming and recoiling cores can be extended into complete lines with pickling, ultrasonic cleaning, annealing and coating steps, coordinated by PLC and touch screen control with variable frequency speed adjustment.

Line-level customization

05

Tools adjustable up/down and forward/back with customizable quantities (XL-SS-13) to match strip width and slitting patterns.

Flexible tooling

04

With meter counting accuracy of 3‰ on the XL-OR-05 for length-critical production.

Precise length control

03

Servo drives with oil-cylinder-controlled coil diameter maintain tension as the coil builds.

Servo constant-tension winding

02

Hydraulic expansion shaft and stable, controlled tension from 40–200 N (XL-SS-11) keep coils tight and edge quality consistent.

Stable strip control

01

Five characteristics based on the real winding and tooling design.

Why Choose the Steel Strip Winding Units

Send your material and production requirements — our engineering team will respond with a suitable configuration.

Need a winding solution for your production line?

  • The series is designed for stainless steel strip, armored steel strip and metal narrow strip. Strip width ranges from 1 mm to 25 mm depending on the model, and thickness up to 2 mm on the XL-SS-11 and XL-SS-13, or up to 1 mm on the XL-SS-12 for ultra-thin strip. Other materials can be reviewed against your specification.

  • The XL-SS-11 handles 5–25 mm strip up to 2 mm thick at 150 m/min with a hydraulic expansion shaft and servo take-up. The XL-SS-12 is the high-speed model for narrow, ultra-thin strip — 1–10 mm, up to 1 mm thick — at up to 300 m/min with 4 kW traction. The XL-SS-13 handles medium-wide and armored strip, 8–25 mm and up to 2 mm thick, with adjustable tooling.

  • The XL-SS-11 and XL-SS-13 run at up to 150 m/min. The XL-SS-12 reaches 300 m/min for narrow and ultra-thin strip. Speed is adjusted by variable frequency drive under PLC and touch screen control.

  • Winding accuracy is 3‰ across the series. Meter counting accuracy is 3‰ on the XL-SS-11 and XL-SS-12, which supports length-critical rewinding and packaging of strip coils.

  • The XL-SS-11 winds onto spools with 400–500 mm inside diameter and 800 mm outside diameter, held on a hydraulic expansion shaft. Coil formats for the other models are configured to the order; confirm your required dimensions with our sales team before ordering.

  • The XL-SS-11 uses servo constant-tension winding with an adjustable tension range of 40–200 N and an oil cylinder controlling coil diameter. Take-up is driven by a 3 kW servo with a 1.5 kW servo traversing drive, coordinated by PLC and touch screen.

  • Yes, on the XL-SS-13 the tools adjust up and down as well as forward and back, and the tool quantity can be customized. This allows the unit to match different strip widths and slitting patterns without replacing the tooling carriage.

  • Yes. The trimming and recoiling core can be extended into a customized complete line with drawing, edge trimming, inlay, bright pickling, ultrasonic cleaning, annealing and coating steps. Submit your process flow and required steps for a configuration review.

  • The XL-SS-13 800 type is specified for medium-wide strip and armored strip, handling 8–25 mm widths up to 2 mm thick. For narrower armor strip below 8 mm, the XL-SS-11 or XL-SS-12 may apply; confirm your strip width and thickness with our team.

  • Pricing depends on the model, strip width and thickness range, tooling configuration and any complete-line steps. Send your strip specification to manager@wuhanxinglian.com or contact Felix Wen at +86 133 8765 8271 (WeChat / WhatsApp) for a quotation.
