Russel Metals Purchases Red Bud Stretcher Leveler Retrofit
04/05/2013 - Russel Metals, located in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, recently purchased a Red Bud Industries’ stretcher leveler with SUREGRIP® technology to be installed in an existing cut-to-length line at their B&T Steel Division in Stoney Creek, Ontario.
Russel Metals, located in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, recently purchased a Red Bud Industries’ .250” (6 mm) x 72” (1830 mm) stretcher leveler with SUREGRIP® technology to be installed in an existing cut-to-length line at their B&T Steel Division in Stoney Creek, Ontario. The stretcher leveler and its accompanying components are part of a major upgrade of capabilities at the Stoney Creek facility.
The new stretcher leveler will produce the flattest, most stable material possible while operating virtually independent of incoming strip shape and severity. The operator simply stretches the material until it is flat. The result is a flat product that will stay flat and is particularly well suited for laser cutting applications where flatness is essential.
Included in the stretcher leveler retrofit are the .250” (6 mm) x 72” (1830 mm) semi-adjustable stretcher leveler, roll feed system, and primary shear.
