Narrow strip, controlled width
Rotary knives divide coil lengthwise into strips for downstream manufacturing. Material properties, tooling and knife clearance affect edge quality and dimensional consistency.
MD Metals processes its own inventory and customer-owned coils. Review the required grade, finish, dimensions and coil weight with the team before scheduling.
