Dereeling and Feeding

Irrespective of how your material is presented, on a roll or a coil, as a ring, bundle or spirally wound, we provide an effective means of receiving and unrolling it.

Directly after the unwind unit, which generally doesn’t have its own drive, there is a material feeding device to draw the material from the unwind unit. Depending on the necessary pulling force and the width of the material, the following feeding devices are employed:

Metzner Feeding Units

Prefeeders from Metzner are used when material is dereeled from a device without a drive. These include profile reels, tube coils, loose rings, or processing directly from a box. More information >

Metzner Caterpillar Haul-Offs

Powerful caterpillar pullers transport rubber profiles that are extracted after the extrusion out of a cool bath and will process, protective to the preparation plant with up to 40 m/min. More information >

Metzner Unwind Units

Unwind units powered by electronics for machining of wrapped profiles and tubes; speed control via loop-control. More information >

Metzner Loop Controls

Error-free material infeed for processing machinery is a basic prerequisite for high length precision at high working speeds. More information >
