A roll forming machine that continuously shapes metal coil into corrugated roofing panels by passing the material through a series of matched rollers to produce consistent profiles for roof cladding and siding.
Common materials include pre-painted galvanized steel (PPGI), galvalume, cold-rolled steel, aluminum, and sometimes stainless steel, typically supplied as coil material.
Typical thickness ranges are 0.3–1.2 mm for steel, and coil widths commonly 600–1250 mm, though exact ranges depend on machine configuration and customer requirements.
Production speed varies by profile complexity and material, but typical forming speeds are from 6 to 20 m/min. Some simplified profiles can run faster; precise speed is specified per machine.
Common cutting options include hydraulic shears (cut-to-length) and flying shears for continuous cutting without stopping the line; choice depends on required accuracy and production speed.
Yes. Profile shape, forming stations, coil width, PLC controls, cutting system, decoiler capacity, and ancillary equipment can be customized to meet specific production and site requirements.
Most modern machines include PLC control with an HMI/touchscreen for recipe management, automatic length counting, material runout detection, and optional servo drives for precise cutting and control.
Power consumption depends on machine size and accessories (typically a few kW to tens of kW). Floor space varies by configuration but usually ranges from 6–20 meters in length; exact requirements are provided on the technical drawing.
Simple installations can be completed in a few days; full installation and commissioning with alignment, electrical hookup, and operator training typically takes 1–2 weeks depending on site conditions.
Regular tasks include cleaning, lubrication of bearings and chains, checking roller alignment, inspecting cutting blades, and monitoring hydraulic oil and electrical connections. A preventive maintenance schedule should be followed.
Most suppliers offer spare parts packages, technical support, remote troubleshooting, and on-site service or training. Confirm specific spare parts availability and lead times with the supplier.
Typical safety features include emergency stop buttons, safety guards around moving parts, interlocked access doors, overload protection, and safety PLC or relays to meet local regulations.
Yes. By changing roll sets and sometimes minor tooling adjustments, a machine can produce various corrugated profiles, pitch heights, and panel widths within its design limits.
Price is influenced by production speed, material thickness range, automation level, cutting system, decoiler capacity, brand, customization, and included accessories or spare parts packages.
Yes. Reputable manufacturers usually provide operator and maintenance training during commissioning, along with user manuals and sometimes remote training or video tutorials.
