Abstract
A coilbox is provided for winding a metal strip to form a coil and for unwinding the metal strip from the coil. In order to further develop a known coilbox in such a manner that the position of the coil is known at all times, in particular during its passive transfer from the winding station to the unwinding station, at least one additional roller rotatably mounted on the frame is provided.
