The AMP service centre is 65000 square metre warehouse with modern processing equipment to convert large coils of stainless and aluminium into:
-
small coils
-
sheet and plate
-
slit strip
-
polished finishes; and
-
scotchbrite finishes.
The latest technology has been incorporated in material handling equipment and information and communciations systems. These complement the state-of-the-art process management and customer service.
Sheet Cut to Length Line
A high speed line optimised for accurate cutting of standard or special length sheets. The line's capabilities and features are:
A high speed line optimised for accurate cutting of standard or special length sheets. The line's capabilities and features are:
-
0.3-2.00mm thickness
-
200-1580mm width
-
side trim unit (minimum 5mm to 40mm maximum per side trim)
-
validation and feedback system to maintain consistency of length
-
stacker automatically sets to order requirement
-
Herr Voss leveller with automatic set-up feature which can be activated by gauge or coil identification number. This feature saves time and material on partly processed coils held in stock, as the leveller will set up the same parameters previously used
-
six high Herr Voss leveller enables the bottom surface to be treated with the same loving care as the top surface (most lines are only four high and a few are five high). Back up transfer marks are a thong of the past
-
High speed (up to 76m per minute)
-
All rolls in contact with the strip are coated to reduce the possibility of scratching
-
Double-sided PE application
-
Paper interleaving
-
12.5 tonne input coil weights

Polishing belts are formulated to provide a uniform polished surface. A roughness gauge is used to measure every coil to verify consistency of finish from coil to coil. The line's capabilities and features include:
-
300-1580mm processing width
-
0.3-2mm thickness up to 1580mm wide and up to 1220mm wide to 3mm
-
7.5 tonne back tension coupled with a control system to optimise polishing conditions
-
rolls in contact with steel are coated to minimise the possi
