You usually buy master or parent coild and you’d want to cut down on material costs and inventory. You can accomplish it by purchasing standard-size steel coils and slitting them to the precise dimensions you want by slitting machine or slitting and cutting to length machine.
Mini slitting machine
The master or parent roll is the term used to describe the huge roll. A slitter is a machine that makes one or more thinner rolls from a master roll.
Master rolls are frequently constructed as large as possible due to cost considerations. When the master rolls you have aren’t the right size for your needs. To meet your operation, a steel slitting machine or slitter machine can reduce the width or even the yardage of your materials.

The difference between slitting machine and cut to length machine
The material will be sliced into strips from the centre of the knife on the slitting machine, which has a shaft feeding and another shaft winding. Because the slitting machine is primarily used to regulate the load throughout the plate winding and unwinding operation, the slitter’s output torque should vary according on the winding diameter.
Metal slitting machines are mainly used for slitting metal coils, and they are the most common product in today’s metal cutting equipment industry. Strip, stainless steel, copper, as well as other metals are examples. It is mostly used in steel mills.
The cut to length machine works in the same way as a cutter, cutting a huge roll of material to the desired length. The cut to length machine’s advantages are clear, since it uses system control to output a dc voltage and regulate the magnetic powder clutch formed by resistance.
