Dry strip system (DS system)

Now available to you is our new-generation DS system. It offers you an ideal, contact-free way to remove rolling emulsion residues from strip. What makes this system so highly efficient is that it needs less compressed air.

Installed in the exit of a cold rolling stand, the DS system removes lubricant residues from the strip surface. This effectively prevents stain spots. High productivity is the hallmark of our latest-generation DS systems. That's due to the optimum combination of stationary and movable sealing elements as well as precisely balanced blow-off and extraction areas. One of the core components of the DS system is the wear-proof and contactless sealing of the roll barrel. This is also known as a COANDA nozzle.
