Coil catching systems
As a new feature this paper coil tong includes two independent coil catching systems for versatile handling. These systems allow the tong to operate both when the coil incorporates an axis for laminator placement and when it does not, ensuring adaptability to different handling requirements. This versatility makes it an ideal solution for various paper processing and manufacturing applications, optimizing efficiency in material transport and storage.
To enhance operator safety, the tong is equipped with advanced anti opening leg security systems, preventing accidental coil release during handling. Additionally, its heavy-duty construction ensures long-term durability, while its customizable design allows it to be tailored to meet specific industry requirements, providing reliability and efficiency in paper roll transportation.
