Manufacturing and Processing of Core Structural Components
Steel Structural Frame and Platform
This is the foundation of the accumulator. It must have sufficient strength and stability to support the looper carriage, the steel strip, and its own structure under both static and dynamic loads during operation. The frame is typically fabricated using structural steel and steel plates through welding, followed by stress relief treatment. All critical mounting surfaces must be precision-machined to ensure installation accuracy and long-term operational alignment.
Guide Rail and Balancing System
The looper carriage relies on robust guide rails to ensure smooth and accurate vertical movement. The installation accuracy and perpendicularity of the guide rails are crucial for stable operation. To counterbalance the weight of the carriage and reduce required drive power, large vertical loopers are commonly equipped with a balancing mechanism — typically a counterweight system or hydraulic balancing system.

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.
Applicability
The accumulator is suitable for MG-16 to MG-60 tube mill lines, while the spiral looper is used for MG-60 and above.
Storage Capacity & Charging Speed
The accumulator can store 150–300 meters of steel strip, whereas the horizontal accumulator has a charging speed of 120–200 meters per minute.
Space Efficiency
In terms of space, the accumulator is more compact, occupying about 6 meters, while the horizontal accumulator requires around 15 meters of floor space.
Cost-Effectiveness
Additionally, the accumulator is more cost-effective compared to the horizontal accumulator.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary function of an accumulator in a tube mill line?
Its main function is to temporarily store a certain amount of steel strip to supply the main machine while head and end welding is performed, ensuring continuous production without machine shutdowns.
For which tube mill lines is this accumulator suitable?
This accumulator is suitable for MG-16 to MG-60 tube mill lines. For larger lines (MG-60 and above), a spiral looper is typically utilized.
What is the storage capacity of the accumulator?
The accumulator has a storage volume capacity of 150 to 300 meters of steel strip.
How does the accumulator compare to a horizontal accumulator in terms of space?
The accumulator is significantly more compact, occupying only about 6 meters of space, whereas a horizontal accumulator requires approximately 15 meters of floor space.
What are the main structural components of the accumulator?
The core structural components include a welded steel structural frame and platform (subjected to stress relief treatment) and a guide rail with a balancing system (commonly a counterweight or hydraulic system) to ensure stable carriage movement.
What adjusting method and motor power does the accumulator use?
It utilizes a manual spiral adjusting method and is powered by an AC 5.5KW feeding motor.
