Slitting equipment and its suspended winding device

Abstract

A slitting machine and its suspended winding device are disclosed. The suspended winding device includes a drive unit mounted on a main body, a movable seat unit, and at least one suspended winding unit. The movable seat unit can be driven by the drive unit to move relative to the main body in a second direction horizontally orthogonal to a first direction. The at least one suspended winding unit is suspended from the movable seat unit and can be driven to move relative to the movable seat unit in the first direction. It can also be driven to rotate at least one winding tube to wind up at least one slit strip. This design allows for the direct release of the at least one slit strip onto a lower trolley, eliminating the need for the unloading space required for the pivoting of the winding device as in prior art, thus improving the space utilization of the slitting machine.
