FAQ

FAQ

FORSTNER RC5 Recoiler is a compact and cost-effective production line for adjusting sheet metal dimensions from coil to coil. It is used when companies want to recoil, slit and dimension coil material into smaller coils or the correct material width for current production. RC5 Recoiler is especially suitable for suppliers in roofing, windows, doors and ventilation who want to reduce waste, increase productivity and minimize inventory requirements.

FORSTNER RC5 Recoiler makes it possible to start from larger coils and produce the widths or smaller coils needed for current orders. This reduces the need to keep many different coil widths and finished material dimensions in stock. By adjusting the material according to demand, companies gain better coil handling, lower tied-up inventory and reduced material waste.

FORSTNER RC5 Recoiler handles coils up to 5 tons and is available with a working length of 1250 mm or 1500 mm. The machine is equipped with 5 slitting knives, has a speed of 25 m/min and can process mild steel up to 1.25 mm thickness. This makes RC5 Recoiler an efficient solution for companies that want to recoil, slit and dimension coil material in a compact production flow.

FORSTNER RC5 Recoiler is suitable for companies working with coil material and needing flexible dimension adjustment from coil to coil. It is especially relevant for businesses in roofing, windows, doors, ventilation and professional sheet metal processing where several material widths are used in production. For companies that want to improve material utilization, reduce inventory space and create a more efficient flow, RC5 Recoiler is a strong alternative.

FORSTNER RC5 Recoiler improves coil handling by combining slitting, recoiling and dimension adjustment in one production line. The machine makes it possible to produce smaller coils or customized widths directly from larger coils, giving better control over the material flow and reducing unnecessary manual steps. For companies that want to optimize inventory, material use and production planning, RC5 Recoiler is a flexible solution for smarter sheet metal processing.
