✅ 1. Product Overview

Le Horizontal Accumulator, also known as a Floor-Type Spiral Accumulator, is a dynamic coil storage system used in tube mills, slitting lines, and other continuous strip processing lines. Its main function is to buffer strip material during coil changeover or welding, ensuring non-stop production.


🌀 2. Working Principle & Storage Mode

This accumulator stores strip material horizontally in a serpentine loop layout. As the strip is fed from the uncoiler, it enters the accumulator and is guided through a series of rollers that form horizontal loops. These loops are stored along a linear bed or platform.

  • Storage Form: Horizontal spiral/serpentine loops

  • How It Works:

    1. Infeed phase: Strip enters and forms horizontal loops while the production line continues running.

    2. Outfeed phase: When the uncoiler stops, the accumulator feeds the stored strip forward.

    3. Synchronization: Infeed and outfeed are controlled by a PLC to balance loop volume and maintain tension.


⚙️ 3. Technical Specifications (Sample Configuration)

Article Valeur
Largeur de la bande as requirement,normally suitable for big size and thickness
Épaisseur de la bande as requirement,normally suitable for big size and thickness
Storage Capacity 1000 meters (based on number of loops)
Vitesse de ligne 0–100 m/min
Loop Type Horizontal serpentine (spiral bed)
Système de contrôle PLC + Inverter + Tension control
Installation Space Depends on required storage length

🏗️ 4. Main Components

  1. Loop Frame & Guide Rollers – Forms and guides horizontal strip loops.

  2. Infeed & Outfeed Rollers – Feed strip in and out smoothly.

  3. Tension Control System – Maintains strip tension via sensors.

  4. Drive System – Includes servo or inverter motors for speed control.

  5. Support Platform – Steel base frame or track for loop support.

  6. Armoire de contrôle PLC – Centralized automation and logic control.


🧭 5. Application Scenarios

  • ERW tube and pipe mills

  • Steel strip slitting and recoiling lines

  • Cut-to-length and blanking lines

  • Continuous cold roll forming systems

  • Pickling and galvanizing lines


🔄 6. Comparison: Disc vs. Horizontal vs. Vertical Accumulator

Fonctionnalité Disc Type Accumulator Horizontal Accumulator Vertical Spiral Accumulator
Layout Length 10m length over 10m length Very High
Space Usage Compact Large floor space High ceiling space
Loop Style Flat coil loops Horizontal serpentine Vertical spiral
Structure Complexity Simple Moderate Complex
Maintenance Easy Moderate More complex
Contrôle des tensions Good Very good Excellent
Cost Lower Medium Higher
Application Flexibility General purpose For longer buffer needs For high-speed & large-volume lines

🎯 7. How to Choose

  • Choose Disc Accumulator if:

    • You have limited floor and vertical space

    • Pipe diameter lower 127mm, thickness lower 5mm.

    • Buffering needs are moderate

  • Choose Horizontal Accumulator if:

    • You have enough floor space

    • Need long strip buffering (20m+)

    • Require good tension control but limited ceiling height

  • Choose Vertical Spiral Accumulator if:

    • High-speed line (80–120 m/min)

    • Short space

    • You can accommodate a tall structure

  • horizontal strip accumulator
  • coil accumulator

Horizontal Accumulator FAQ

How long can a horizontal accumulator store?

depending on strip thickness and accumulator design.

What is the main advantage over disc accumulators?

It offers greater storage length and better tension control for mid-to-high speed lines.

Is it difficult to maintain?

Maintenance is moderate. Most systems use standard rollers and accessible platforms.

Does it require a lot of floor space?

Yes, horizontal accumulators require more floor space but are ideal when height is limited.
