my plant can slit some steel

At my plant we have two *stamko* slitter machines...they take 60k pound master coils of steel and slit them into coils of whatever width our customer needs.

If the orders call for a long run without changes we can run between the two machines over two MILLION pounds of steel in 8 hours.

It's amazing to watch

That's some fast steel.

I'd like to know more about what your shop does.

and cut them to whatever our customer needs.

I have seen 2 coils from a master coil or 50 coils...it all depends on what our customer needs
