Cutting-edge slitting optimisation engineered specifically for metal coil service centres — steel, aluminium, copper and other metals. Minimise trim loss, manage coil inventories and drive slitting lines with precision.
InfoCoil applies INFORMA's proven combinatorial optimisation engine to the coil industry. It calculates optimal slitting patterns for coils of steel, aluminium, copper and other metals — handling the unique constraints of metal: yield strength, edge-trim standards, oscillation winding, and weight-per-metre tolerances.
Developed in partnership with Gabella Macchine and deployed at service centres across Europe, InfoCoil is trusted for high-value metal where every kilogram of scrap has a direct cost.
Handles metal grade mixing rules, minimum order quantities and coil weight tolerances that standard optimisers ignore.
Tracks available master coils by grade, width, thickness and heat number. Optimiser selects the best coil for each cutting pattern automatically.
Sends confirmed cutting plans directly to slitting line control systems. Operators see the programme on-screen without manual re-entry.
Links every slit coil to its parent master coil mill certificate. Downstream traceability reports generated with one click.
InfoCoil was co-developed with Gabella Macchine, specialists in coil slitting lines. The partnership combines INFORMA's optimisation expertise with Gabella Macchine's deep knowledge of metal coil processing — deployed at service centres across Europe.
