Overview

The Vicon Duct Line Express is an automatic rectangular duct blanking system designed for efficient HVAC duct production and future expansion into a complete Full Coil Line. Additional modular Vicon Coil Line components can be integrated as production requirements grow.

A precision high-speed servo feed system provides fast and accurate material positioning, while the gear-driven four-roll straightener, ring-type beading system, heavy-duty notching unit, and dual hydraulic cylinder shear prepare duct blanks for downstream fabrication.

The notching unit uses combination dies to produce Slip & Drive, TDX, Snaplock, and Pittsburgh notch patterns. The shear features high-carbon, high-chrome D-2 blades, independently adjustable blade gaps, and a heavy-duty torsion synchronization shaft to maintain the proper shear angle throughout the stroke.

The Duct Line Express features a Vicon PC-based control system capable of controlling the complete system. Hands-free coil feeding, individual coil drive motors, and pneumatic back-up wheels at each coil station help streamline material handling and production.

The standard system processes 16–30 gauge mild steel in coil widths from 48″ to 60″, with configurations from one to six coil stations and maximum coil capacity up to 12,000 lbs. Optional capacities and additional processing equipment are available.
