Abstract
A coil packing line in which coils are packed by a plurality of operation processes is provided. The coil packing line is provided with a plurality of work stations, stationary skid mechanisms, carriage mechanisms and a plurality of reciprocating mechanisms. Each operation process has a corresponding work station. The stationary skid mechanisms are provided at each work station for supporting a coil at the work station. The carriage mechanisms are provided between each work station for removing a coil from an upstream stationary skid mechanism, supporting the coil and depositing the coil at a downstream stationary skid mechanism. The plurality of reciprocating mechanisms independently move at least one carriage mechanism back and forth between the upstream and downstream stationary skid mechanisms.
