New GEORG cut-to-length line takes-up production

Belgium customer Decomecc has started production with his new GEORG cut-to-length line (2300 x 4,5 mm) for processing aluminium coils. The family owned company has been established in 1995 and has been quite successful in the sheet service sector so far. With the new line for aluminium the company has enlarged its product portfolio focusing on the growing sector for automotive blanks. Aluminium coils for this application field are treated with drylubes for subsequent deep-drawing processes. This necessitates that line components like transport rolls, leveler roll cassettes and stacking belts are specially designed e.g. with cleaning devices.

The crankshaft swing shear cuts rectangular as well as trapezoidal blanks with +/- 30°shearing angle; by means of a special arc shaped cutting tools even arc and radial cuts as shaped blanks can be performed.
