Uncoiler (Manual Mechanical / Pneumatic / Hydraulic)

Uncoiler for ERW Tube Mill and Steel Pipe Making Line

An uncoiler is the first important machine in a tube mill production line. It holds the steel coil and feeds strip into the shearing and butt welding machine, accumulator, and forming section. A suitable uncoiler helps the whole line run more smoothly and reduces coil feeding problems.

XFX Tube Mill Machinery supplies manual mechanical uncoilers, pneumatic uncoilers, and hydraulic uncoilers for different ERW tube mill projects. The right choice depends on your coil weight, strip width, strip thickness, production speed, automation level, and budget.

Available Uncoiler Types

Manual Mechanical Uncoiler

Manual uncoilers are usually used for small tube mill lines or lower automation requirements. They are simple, economical, and easy to operate.

Pneumatic Uncoiler

Pneumatic uncoilers offer better control than manual models and are suitable for medium production requirements where stable coil expansion and feeding are needed.

Hydraulic Uncoiler

Hydraulic uncoilers are suitable for heavier coils, larger tube mill lines, and projects that need stronger loading and expansion capability.

How to Choose the Right Uncoiler

• Steel coil inner diameter and outer diameter
• Maximum coil weight
• Strip width and strip thickness
• Tube mill line speed
• Manual, pneumatic, or hydraulic loading requirement
• Available workshop space and layout

If you are not sure which uncoiler is suitable, send us your coil specifications and tube mill model. We will help check a practical configuration.

Application

This uncoiler can be used with high frequency welded tube mills, ERW tube mill machines, steel tube mill machines, pipe making machines, slitting lines, and other steel strip processing equipment.

Common Buyer Concerns

Many buyers worry that the uncoiler may not match the coil weight or tube mill speed. XFX checks the uncoiler together with the full tube mill process, including shearing and welding, accumulator, forming, welding, sizing, and cutting, so the equipment can work as a coordinated production line.

FAQ

Can I use a manual uncoiler for all tube mill lines?

No. Manual uncoilers are more suitable for small or simple lines. For heavier coils or higher production requirements, pneumatic or hydraulic uncoilers may be a better choice.

What information should I provide before quotation?

Please send coil inner diameter, coil outer diameter, maximum coil weight, strip width, strip thickness, tube size, wall thickness, and expected production speed.

Can the uncoiler be supplied together with the complete tube mill?

Yes. XFX can supply the uncoiler as part of a complete ERW tube mill line or as auxiliary equipment for an existing line.
