Coil transport
What is Coil Transport?
Coil transport refers to the specialized transport of metal coils – large rolls of steel, aluminium or other metals. These coils are essential for many industries, from automotive manufacturing to the construction industry. Safe and efficient transportation is crucial for smooth production processes.
Why is professional coil transportation important?
- Safety: Coils are heavy and can be dangerous if handled incorrectly.
- Efficiency: Optimized transport processes save time and costs.
- Quality assurance: Professional transportation prevents damage to the valuable cargo.
- Compliance: Compliance with all legal regulations and industry standards.

What steps are necessary to make coil transportation efficient?
Several important steps are necessary to make coil transportation efficient:
- Use specialized transport equipment: Use specially developed systems such as the Carl Stahl CoilHandling system (CSCH) for the safe and efficient transportation of coils. These systems are suitable for all steps in the logistics chain and allow coils to be kept in an upright position during transportation and storage.
- Prioritize safety: Ensure that the coils are well secured at all times – during transportation, storage and use – to avoid accidents at work and prevent damage to the material.
- Ensure surface protection: Use suitable means of transportation that protect the surface and edges of the coils from bending and scratches.
- Implement integrated logistics solutions: Use systems that are suitable for every step in the logistics chain, from the manufacturer to the freight forwarder to the processing company.
- Use modern technologies: Implement advanced technologies such as RFID transponders for precise positioning and tracking of coils during transportation.
- Develop customized solutions: Work with experts to develop customized transport equipment that is tailored to the characteristics of your production facility, working environment and the products to be moved.
- Use automation: Rely on automated systems that can make transportation more efficient and reduce manpower requirements.
- Consider multimodal transportation solutions: Depending on the distance and quantity of coils to be transported, consider combining different transportation modes such as road and rail transport for optimal efficiency.
- Staff training: Ensure that all staff involved in coil transport are thoroughly trained in the use of specialized equipment and safety protocols.
- Regular maintenance and inspection: Carry out regular maintenance and inspections of the transport equipment to ensure optimum performance and safety.
By implementing these steps, companies can make their coil transportation considerably more efficient, safer and more cost-effective.
Which safety precautions are particularly important during coil transportation Sources
Several safety precautions are particularly important during coil transportation:
- Specialized transport vehicles: Only vehicles with appropriately dimensioned coil troughs should be used. This special design prevents the heavy load from shifting.
- Correct positioning: The coils must be placed directly against the trough boundary. If this is not possible, sufficiently strong and secured spacers must be fitted between the coil and the trough boundary.
- Lateral securing: For lateral stabilization, loop lashings must be passed through the core of the coil. This prevents lateral tilting or slipping.
- Tie-down lashing: Additional tie-down lashing is important to prevent the coil from “jumping” during transportation.
- Suitable securing materials: Chains should be used to secure the load, as simple belts can be cut or rubbed on the sharp edges of the coils. In addition, anti-slip mats and edge protectors are an essential part of load securing.
- Protection against damage: In order to avoid damage due to mechanical stresses, careful and proper stowing, bracing, lashing and lashing on the means of transport is required.
- Proper handling equipment: When using wire ropes or chains as handling equipment, care must be taken to avoid deformation in the edge area of the coils.
- Intact packaging: It is important to ensure that the strapping (metal bands) of the coils are not damaged or broken, as this can lead to loosening and an increased risk of damage.
- Trained personnel: Transportation should be carried out by experienced employees who are familiar with the specific requirements and risks of coil transportation.
- Observe the manufacturer’s instructions: The shipper’s/manufacturer’s loading instructions must be strictly adhered to in order to avoid damage.
These safety precautions are crucial to ensure both the valuable cargo and the safety of everyone involved in the transportation.
