Tension Leveling Lines
The main purpose of tension levelling of metal strip is to correct the strip shape by bending the strip around small diameter rolls under the influence of externally applied tension in order to produce elongation, making the shorter strip fibres longer and equal to the longest fibres and therefore achieving flat strip.
Sarathi Tension Levelling Lines provide excellent metal sheet flatness required for high quality applications.
The tension leveller levels the strip by making the sheet fibre lengths uniform across its entire width. It does this by elongating parts of the metal beyong their yield point. When the strip passes through the leveller under tension, internal stresses in the material are eliminated, thus helping to achieve flatness or shape correction tolerances to near "I" units.
Tension levelling lines can be "Coil-to-Coil" or "Coil-to-Sheet" type or a combination type, offering both of these facilities.
