What Is a Slitting Line?
A slitting line is a coil processing system used to unwind, slit, and rewind large metal coils into narrower strips. These machines are critical in metal fabrication and manufacturing industries, producing materials used in everything from automotive parts to construction components.

Used slitting lines may include:
- Uncoiler to feed large coils
- Precision slitter head with rotary knives
- Tension stands to maintain quality
