First Coil: Decomecc starts slitting operation on new GEORG slitting line
Last year we reported on the investment decision of our long-time customer Decomecc NV from Genk/Belgium in a slitting line from GEORG, which was to be designed for the specific needs of the automotive industry. Now the Belgian company successfully announces the first strip cuts.
With the state-of-the-art GEORG precisionslit 2350, Decomecc enters the aluminum strip market with a high thickness range from 0.8 to 7.0 mm and can thus serve its customers and their end users not only in the sheet business, but also slit coils in any desired strip width, coil length or coil weight. Furthermore, the line has been equipped with an electrostatic lubrication device. Dry lube for automotive application can be applied on the strip surface. Naturally, the oil amount will be measured and monitored online.
We are very pleased that we were able to realize this order in the shortest possible time and successfully commission the line.
