Siemens VAI’s range of high performance
SIROLLCIS ALU foil mills combines the latest
developments in measurement, computing and control with
innovative mill design to enable producers to achieve the
best quality foil at the lowest cost.
The range of mill designs available satisfy the demands of
producers, including the market trend towards larger coil
weights combined with wider strip, to maximize yield and
productivity. Siemens VAI have the capability to provide a
completely integrated automation and drive solution
including the latest generation of drive technology and the
powerful SIMATIC automation platform.
The recent introduction of Siemens AC drive systems
technology has been a success due to its ability to master
the strong demands on torque ripple and speed response as
required for foil rolling.
The available capabilities enable efficient mill operation
through a number of automated systems for coil, spool and
scrap handling, and for high speed work roll change. These,
together with on-line control of strip flatness and gauge,
mean that the mills are ideally suited to the production of
high quality foil products.
