Abstract
An arrangement with a coil forming and conveying system for wire or light-section steel, particularly with high coil weights of up to 5 t. The arrangement includes one or more conveying units for supplying the wire and a coil forming and transfer station each following the one or more conveying units. The coil forming and transfer stations include a device for conveying wire coils to an unloading station. The coil forming station and the transfer station form a unit. The transfer station includes a relatively elongated C-shaped hook which is connectable to the coil forming station. The C-shaped hook includes a receiving mandrel adjacent the receiving mandrel for conveying and compacting wire or light-section steel windings placed from the coil forming station onto the receiving mandrel. The hook includes travel gear so as to be movable between the transfer station and the unloading station.
