SEGMENTED BREAKER ROLL APPARATUS AND METHOD

摘要

A breaker roll apparatus assembly for minimizing coil breaks in strips has a frame, a center roll extending from a rail mounted to the frame and actuated by a hydraulic cylinder, and a plurality of side rolls positioned on opposite sides of the center roll. The plurality of rolls extend from rails mounted to the frame and are also actuated by hydraulic cylinders. A coil mounting member uncoils a coil of strip through the assembly into contact with the center roll and at least one of the side rolls. Each of the rolls can be raised and lowered to accommodate various diameters and widths of coil.
