This unit is designed to machine both edges of the strip continuously with carbide insert milling cutters. Adequate supports are provided at the cutters for proper strip support during the edge machining operation.
The milling units, adjustable from 0 degrees to 22 degrees are able to permit either bevel cutting or face cutting. Two (2) individual milling heads are provided. A horizontal support roll stand and a series of hydraulically loaded rolls above and below the cutter position give stability to the strip during the milling operation. The individual milling heads have the capability to hydraulically track to the strip edge and will allow for minor variations resulting from width and camber conditions.
