First automation in press shop involves auto feeding of coils in to presses to make blanks and for progressive stamping. An auto coil feeding system consists of up to three basic components: uncoiler, straightener, and feeder. These components can have varying degrees of complexities and can have several accessories. A conventional coil feeding system has these components arranged in tandem, whereas the new trend is to combine these components to make more compact systems, like straightener feeders.
