Inspection with high expectations on strapping machine at Sund Birsta AB

On the 9-10 july ArcelorMittal representatives from the site in Eisenhüttenstadt visited Sund Birsta AB to make inspection on a delivery consisting of a strapping machine type SMB/M-SBHX5-32/2500HC.

This customer has high expectations on Sund, requesting specific and tailormade technology with a lot of focus on the automation system. Reliability and performance are top priorities and customer standards define unique features such as a redundant automation system, featuring a powerful Siemens Safety CPU 1518F-4 PN/DP controller, dual Siemens SITOP PSU8200 power supplies, Siemens insulation monitoring for comprehensive protection and the rugged Siemens TP700 Comfort HMI.

The SMB machine itself is a typical heavy duty Sund Birsta product suitable for hot and harsh environments, featuring the proven X5 strap seal technology, a built in cooling system for the machine frame and the strapping head itself, suitable for strapping coils of flat product.

New solution for strap feeding

On top of this the machine is equipped with the new type of Sund strap accumulator featuring a unique feeding procedure reducing the strap feeding time with more than 50% compared to traditional solutions. In combination with a dual 1000 Kg strap dispenser, the solution offers extraordinary short stop times to connect a new coil of strap to the strapping machine, and hence a significant increase in uptime.
