For cost comparisons of an SCS Coil Line and a P&O line click the buttons below:

In addition to Equipment Costs, consider the impact
of facility capital cost:

 - A typical P&O line requires
   50,000 sq.ft. of floor space.

 - An SCS Coil Line requires
   just 2000 sq. ft. of space.


SCS Coil Line specs:

  -  0.250" material thickness
  -  72" maximum width
  -  50,000 lb. max. coil weight
  - 150 feet/minute line speed

In this comparison, each line processes 200,000 tons/year.

Comparison includes interest payments on capital at 10%/yr.
