Recently,one of our customer who has installed 4 Coil Galvanizing Lines by our company said to us they were having difficulties obtaining higher quality flat strip to meet export market standards and realised they needed to find a solution to their problem.

After consultation and discussions with the customer, our engineer give the customer a solution.We decided to installed a Tension Leveler in their new Coating Line which has the ability of producing Galvanizing roofing sheets. The function of the Tension Leveler is used to even the strip whilst under tension. Tension leveling is an effective method of ensuring a good quality, flat strip through a wide range of products. This Tension leveler installed comprises a fabricated steel structure with levelling screws and incorporates a No.1 Work Roll Cassette, a No. 2 Work roll Cassette, a No. 1 De-curving Cassette and a No. 2 De-curving Cassette. A support roll is fitted to the entry and exit end of the machine at the pass line height to assist in supporting the strip as it enters and leaves the machine. The following are the details of the strip that is being processed by a Bronx supplied Tension Leveller.

GEIT offered a total end-of-line automation for the tension leveler, with a complete flexible and unique solution for mechanical design, controls engineering, pre-assembling, testing, installation and commissioning. By pre-testing in-house, this saved valuable time for the customer, resulting in a faster commissioning of the tension leveler. The installation of the Tension Leveler resulted in a high quality strip required by their export customers.
