Cycle Time: What 20-30 Seconds Delivers
The cycle is not the blade stroke — it is four steps on PLC presets. What the band delivers, and what its stretching tells you.
-
Starting Methods at Mill Scale
Direct, soft, star-delta, variable-frequency: the engineering answer to the inrush gap, selected at quotation and proven at commissioning.
-
Motor kW and Your Site Supply
Four motor options are answers to different site situations. The three numbers from your electrician that pick one — before the build, not on delivery day.

Why We Do Not Recommend Welded Blade Repairs
