WHY DO I NEED A POWERED PALLET DECOILER?
Because wasting time, space, and material is expensive.
An AWC pallet decoiler lets you run coils exactly as they arrive. No upending. No wrestling coils onto a reel. No edge damage. You set the pallet down, thread the material, and keep the line moving.
For stamping and forming operations, this is one of the fastest ways to eliminate downtime and unnecessary risk.
KEY BENEFITS
• Faster Changeovers
Reduce coil change time by up to 90%, so presses spend more time making parts and less time waiting.
• Safer Operation
No manual lifting of heavy coils. Fewer back injuries, fewer cuts, fewer crushed fingers. Your safety manager can breathe again.
• Less Material Damage
Eliminates edge damage and clockspringing caused by loading coils onto vertical reels. That alone can save thousands in scrap.
• Better Use of Floor Space
Store and run multiple coils on a single pallet, cutting down storage and handling space.
• Simple Loading
Forklift drops the pallet directly onto the decoiler. No complex setup. No extra steps.
• Ideal for Delicate Materials
Perfect for thin, narrow, or easily damaged materials like light-gauge metals, paper, and plastics. (Not that thick and wider materials can’t be payed off as well.)
HOW IT WORKS
An AWC pallet decoiler accepts the coil on the skid it ships on and unrolls it horizontally into a feeder or straightener. The material stays controlled, the process stays continuous, and downstream equipment stays fed.
It’s not flashy. It’s just efficient. And efficiency is what keeps production running.
