Advanced range of high-speed rolls and straighteners

The Witels-Albert range includes the HS series of high-speed rolls and straighteners. Technical features include PO position counters that ensure defined and reproducible settings for straightening rolls, and the CS semi-automatic tube straightener adjustment system. The CS Easy IV roll straightener, which is used to process 5-15mm tube, can generate defined roll settings at the press of a key. The company’s customers have to supply top quality process materials and products, which can be produced at the lowest possible cost within tight tolerances using highly stable processes. It is therefore vital that guiding, preform, postform, straightening and feeding processes are seen as more than ancillary processes.

Witels-Albert, Germany, is involved in the design and manufacture of an advanced range of rolls, straightening machines and associated equipment. This equipment is used to guide, straighten, preform, postform and feed process materials. The company continually aims to address the constantly evolving production environments, greater use of automation, tightly integrated sub-processes, increases

in production speeds, new materials and advanced business strategies. The company has a wealth of knowledge covering all aspects of the straightening and transportation of process materials geared to the latest applications. Witels-Albert aims to use its expertise to ensure the straightening process is treated as an independent sub-process,

which is influenced by upstream and downstream processes. The company believes that pay-off from a reel and feeding are sub-processes that can have a positive or negative impact on the straightening process. There are process interfaces at the feed and delivery points of a straightening unit or system, while the interface parameters can be objectively identified.
