Title: Gregory Industries of Canton, Ohio orders Turret Recoiler & Turret Uncoiler.

Itasca, Illinois (August 2005): The Formtek Group of companies which includes Cooper-Weymouth, Peterson (CWP), B&K, Dahlstrom, Engel, Hill Engineering, Iowa Precision Industries, Lockformer, Rowe, Winpro, and Yoder announced B&K received an order for Turret Recoiler and Turret Uncoiler from Gregory Industries of Canton, Ohio.

Gregory Industries, a large manufacturer of highway guard rails with continuous galvanizing capabilities, recently contracted with the Formtek’s B&K Coil Metal Processing group to design and manufacture a replacement Turret Recoiler and Turret Uncoiler. The new machines were designed to increase the coil capacity, reduce downtime, and increase the throughput of the continuous strip galvanizing line.

Both units required special mountings in order to match the existing equipment and foundations to reduce installation and start-up time. The machines were successfully installed in May of this year.

The new coilers contained hydraulic rotation on large ring bearings with hydraulic detents, inching drives, holddowns and 20” diameter mandrels. Turret Coilers are ideal for continuous process lines, high production slitting lines or any coil feed process equipment that requires fast coil changes. Standard and custom coilers are available in sizes from 5,000 pounds x 12” wide to 80,000 pounds x 84” wide.

Contact Formtek member companies B&K, Iowa Precision or CWP for precision coiled metal processing machinery. To learn more about Formtek products, integrated solutions, service and support, visit our website: www.formtekinc.com
