    The Advantages of Horizontal Accumulator

    Horizontal Accumulator 2
    High Storage Capacity for Continuous Production
    The spiral accumulator stores hundreds of meters of strip by vertically looping the material. This ensures uninterrupted supply during coil changes and welding — ideal for high-speed and large-scale tube mills.

    Improved Product Accuracy
    Stable material flow reduces strip deviation and ensures better dimensional precision during forming and welding.
    Stable Tension Control
    Stable Tension Control
    With a natural free loop inside the tower, the system absorbs speed variations across the line. This provides consistent tension and smoother forming performance.

    The Comparison of Accumulator and Horizontal Accumulator

    Both of their main function is to store a certain amount of steel strip for supplying main machine before it doing head and end welding to make sure main machine’s continuous production without stopping.

    The accumulator is suitable for MG-16 to MG-60 tube mill lines, while the Horizontal Accumulator is used for MG-60 and above.

    The accumulator can store 150–300 meters of steel strip, but the horizontal accumulator has a charging speed of 120–200 meters per minute.

    In terms of space, the accumulator is specious, which occupys about 6 meters, while the horizontal accumulator requires around 15 meters of floor space.

    Additionally, the accumulator is more cost performance compared to the horizontal accumulator.

    Feature Accumulator Horizontal Accumulator
    Applicable Mill Size MG-16 to MG-60 MG-60 and above
    Strip Storage Capacity Approximately 150–300 m Filling speed approximately 120–200 m
    Required Floor Space About 6 meters, compact design About 15 meters, requires larger space
    Cost Lower, cost-efficient Higher investment
    Structure Horizontal multi-layer storage via lifting arms Large spiral storage formed by strip looping

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    Q1: What is the main function of an accumulator in a tube mill line?
    The primary function is to store sufficient steel strip to continuously supply the main machine during the head and tail welding of strip coils, preventing line stops and ensuring non-stop production.
    Q2: Which tube mill lines are suitable for a horizontal accumulator?
    Horizontal accumulators are designed for larger configurations, specifically MG-60 tube mill lines and above, whereas standard accumulators are used for MG-16 to MG-60 models.
    Q3: What strip thickness range can the horizontal accumulator handle?
    The horizontal accumulator supports steel strip thicknesses ranging from 1.0 mm to 5.0 mm.
    Q4: How much installation floor space is required for a horizontal accumulator?
    A horizontal accumulator requires approximately 15 meters of floor space, compared to compact standard accumulators which require around 6 meters.
    Q5: How does a horizontal accumulator improve product quality?
    By utilizing a natural free loop to provide stable tension control and reduce material deviation, it enhances strip feeding accuracy and ensures better dimensional precision during forming and welding.
    Q6: What motor capacities are used in the horizontal accumulator structure?
    The structure features a bogie frame equipped with a 22KW AC motor for the clamping mechanism and a 30KW AC motor for the main body drive.
