A manual decoiler is a cost-effective, low-maintenance solution for light steel coils up to 2 tons. The coil is placed on a simple expanding mandrel and strip is pulled by the downstream machine. No motor or brake is needed, making it ideal for low-volume shops and prototype stamping.
Coils are unwound smoothly with controlled tension, protecting surface finish and keeping line speed stable.
Grips the coil inner diameter securely for safe handling during loading and unwinding.
Lifts heavy coils from floor to mandrel, reducing crane time and operator risk.
Cover a wide weight and width range with custom specifications available on request.
Manual decoiler with coil loaded on the mandrel
A steel coil is loaded onto the expanding mandrel. The mandrel grips the inner diameter and a motorized or hydraulic drive rotates the drum to pay out strip. A pneumatic or disc brake maintains back tension so the strip feeds evenly into the straightener, feeder, or punch press without slack or overrun.

FANTY designs and builds decoilers, feeders and straighteners in-house, so you talk directly to the maker.
Every unit is tested before packing; photos and video of your actual machine can be shared for approval.
Export packing protects the machine for ocean freight and reduces the risk of transit damage.
Our team answers technical questions before purchase and supports installation and spares afterwards.
Models range from 200 mm to 1,500 mm coil widths and from 500 kg to 20 tons coil weight. Tell us your coil data and we recommend the right model.
Yes. Control voltage, motor voltage and plug type are configured to your local standard before shipping.
Standard models ship in 15–25 working days. Custom configurations may need 30–40 days. We confirm the schedule when you place the order.
We recommend keeping mandrel segments, brake pads and proximity sensors. A starter spare-parts list is included with every machine.
One year from the bill of lading date. Technical support and replacement parts are available for the lifetime of the machine.
Yes. We supply English manuals, video guides and can arrange on-site or remote commissioning support.
Tell us your requirements. The FANTY engineering team will reply with a recommended configuration and a quotation.
