Overview — Sprockets for Coil Handling Machinery
From steel service centres in Melbourne to aluminium coil processors in Gladstone, paper mills in the Latrobe Valley, and textile converters in Sydney, coil handling machinery transports, unwinds, slits, and rewinds heavy rolls of metal, paper, and fabric. The chain-and-sprocket drives on mandrels, coil cars, turnstiles, and threading tables must deliver smooth, precise motion to prevent material damage — scratched steel coils, torn paper, or creased fabric mean costly rejects.
एवर-पावर ऑस्ट्रेलिया स्पॉकेट्स कंपनी लिमिटेड निर्माण करती है coil-handling sprockets with precision-ground teeth and dynamically balanced hubs, delivering the smooth, vibration-free motion that protects high-value coil materials.

प्रदर्शन संबंधी लाभ
🔍 Precision Motion
TIR ≤ 0.02 mm and G6.3 dynamic balancing deliver vibration-free coil transport — preventing surface marks on polished steel and aluminium coils.
💪 Heavy-Coil Rated
42CrMo4 alloy sprockets handle coil weights up to 30 tonnes on mandrel drives and coil cars, with shock absorption for sudden starts and stops.
❌ Surface Damage Risk
Budget sprockets with poor TIR cause chain vibration that transfers through rollers to coil surfaces. A single scratch on a premium stainless coil can cost AUD 5,000+ in downgrades.
How Sprockets Work in Coil Handling
▸ Mandrel / uncoiler drive: Sprockets drive the mandrel that grips and rotates the coil for unwinding. Smooth acceleration prevents telescoping.
▸ Coil car traversal: Chain-driven coil cars transport coils between stations. Precise positioning prevents coil-to-equipment contact.
▸ Threading table: Sprocket-driven pinch rollers and table conveyors thread the leading edge of material into the processing line.
▸ Recoiler / rewind: Tension-controlled sprocket drive winds processed material into tight, uniform coils.
▸ Turnstile / upender: Rotates coils from horizontal to vertical (or vice versa) using precision chain-and-sprocket mechanisms.

चयन मार्गदर्शिका
- Identify equipment type: mandrel, coil car, slitter, winder, turnstile.
- Determine coil weight range and material (steel, aluminium, paper, fabric).
- Specify required TIR and dynamic balance grade for surface-quality protection.
- Measure bore, keyway, and hub type from existing sprocket or equipment manual.
- Choose material: C45/40Cr for general handling; 42CrMo4 for heavy steel coils; SS for corrosion-sensitive environments.
Contact our coil-handling specialists for precision sprocket recommendations.
इंस्टालेशन
- Lockout coil-handling line per AS/NZS 4024.
- Release chain tension and remove guards.
- Remove old sprocket; clean shaft; inspect for wear.
- Mount new sprocket; verify keyway engagement; torque to spec.
- Re-route chain with new master link. Set tension per OEM spec.
- Lubricate with clean machine oil (non-drip for coil lines to prevent material contamination).
- Run at slow speed; verify smooth, vibration-free operation.
- Process a test coil; inspect material surface for any marks or defects before full production.
समस्या निवारण
Surface marks on coil material
कारण: Sprocket vibration transferring through rollers. हल करना: Replace with precision-ground, dynamically balanced sprocket (TIR ≤ 0.02 mm).
Coil telescoping on mandrel
कारण: Inconsistent mandrel speed from worn drive sprocket. हल करना: Replace sprocket; recalibrate mandrel speed controller.
Coil car mis-positioning
कारण: Chain elongation or tooth wear causing positioning drift. हल करना: Replace chain and sprocket; recalibrate car position sensors.
Paper web breaking at winder
कारण: Torque pulsation from worn winder sprocket teeth. हल करना: Replace sprocket; verify smooth torque delivery at low speed.
Oil contamination on coil surface
कारण: Over-lubrication of chain dripping onto material. हल करना: Switch to non-drip or dry-film lubricant; install drip guards below chain runs.
