HVS Provides 3-Roll Flattener Answer to FerrouSouth High Strength Cut-to-Length Line

Herr-Voss Stamco recently engineered, manufactured, and integrated a new 3-roll flattener into FerrouSouth’s existing Herr-Voss Stamco cut-to-length line in Iuka, MS.  With the addition of the 3-roll flattener, FerrouSouth is now capable of processing high strength steel up to ?” x 96”.  This line configuration is new to the metal processing industry and was co-developed by Herr-Voss Stamco and FerrouSouth.

This 3-roll flattener was designed to compensate for the limitations of the stretcher leveling process of eliminating crossbow on heavy gauge, wide, big grade product.

"Coupling Herr-Voss Stamco’s 3-roll flattener to our existing line yielded exceptional results”, says FerrouSouth President Ed Gonzalez.
