Let’s have a cup of tea with CUNMAC and roll out the basic things about the leveling machine as well as its combination with other machines now!
1/ What is a leveling? How does the leveling machine work?
– Leveling is a process using a leveling machine that to fix coil shape, make the surface flat and relieve internal stress causing issues for the coil.
– The leveling machine is also called a leveler, roller leveler, coil leveler, or entrance leveling machine.
– It is used for thick metal coils, usually 2-5 mm thick.

2/ Materials can be leveled by the leveling machine
– Can level all metals with an ultimate elongation of at least five percent and a distinct yield strength.
– If the material can be bent without breaking, it can be leveled.
– Certain items like tubes, pipes, three-dimensional objects, or those that are already formed may not be suitable for leveling.
Items cannot be leveled
3/ The importance of the leveling machine
– Metal sheets can have internal stresses and shape issues caused by various factors like rolling mills or cutting processes
– The most common flatness defects are coil set and crossbow.
– Coil defects often occur during transportation, milling, or the following cutting operation.

For instance, before feeding a thick metal coil into the roll forming machine, we use an entrance leveling machine to make the coil surface flat and reduce internal stress. As a result, the subsequent processes become easier and smoother.
