In plastic pipe extrusion, a pipe coiler plays an important role in handling and storing small to medium diameter pipes, such as PPR, PE, and corrugated pipes. Instead of cutting pipes into short straight sections, the coiler allows continuous winding of pipes into rolls, which improves transport efficiency and makes installation easier for end users.
A pipe coiler is usually positioned after the haul-off unit and before packaging. Driven by motors and synchronized with the extrusion speed, the coiler neatly winds the pipe into uniform coils. The machine can be equipped with automatic tension control to ensure smooth winding without deformation of the pipe.
Automatic Winding Control: Coordinates with the extrusion line speed to avoid stretching or slack.
Dual Coiling Stations: Many coilers are designed with two reels, allowing continuous production while one reel is unloaded.
Adjustable Coil Dimensions: Coil inner diameter, outer diameter, and width can be set according to customer needs.
Safety and Stability: Equipped with protective covers and reliable braking systems for safe operation.
Pipe coilers are widely applied for flexible pipes with small diameters, such as water supply pipes, gas pipes, and corrugated electrical conduits. By integrating the coiler with the extrusion line’s PLC control system, manufacturers can achieve higher automation and reduce manual handling.
Langbo Machinery provides pipe coiling solutions as part of its extrusion lines, focusing on reliable operation and compatibility with different pipe sizes. Through precise engineering and practical design, the coiler helps ensure efficient pipe production and convenient downstream use.
