Horizontal coils are usually displaced with electro-mechanical hooks, but these hooks are not the only way to move horizontal coils, and hooks can also be used for this purpose.
The Horizontal coils tongs are usually fed by means of an electro-mechanical system. Horizontal coils can be handled not only by Tongs: A hook may be used.
ELECTRO-MECHANICAL SYSTEM: Tongs operating depends upon a rack mechanism: the pinion is fed by a motorized worm gear box. The rack is integral with the gripping legs. This mechanism allows the tong opening and closing.
This operating is the most requested because it’s easy and workable. This is not the only way to set up our product; every machine is developed and customized by our technical department together with the customer.
