Abstract
The present invention relates to a system for monitoring tension of a peeled strip during threading of the strip onto a coil wrapping assembly. Sensors mounted on the coiler assembly monitor strip tension during threading such that a break in the strip triggers shutdown of the machine including withdrawal of the cutting tool from the billet to prevent damage to the tool.
