Rolled or plated sheets enter the machine in the desired form thanks to the sheet entry apparatus. The sheet that moves between the molds from the first station to the last station takes the desired shape. It is not allowed to change shape atroll forming machineexit by passing through the rectifier molds to be sent straight to the cutting unit later on. The sheet reaching the cutting unit is cut to the desired size with the command entered into the machine from the automation system. Drilling and cutting unit may also vary according to demand. The shape of the roll forming machine, which can be given in a much longer time by hand but with manual machines, is given in a very short time thanks to the roll forming production line.
What are the Functions of Roll Form Lines?
Roll forming machine models or lines carry a variety of functionality. These functionalities can be listed as follows;
- Sheets can be drilled, unloaded and shaped.
- Forms that are punched after roll forming or that have bent edges and middle parts are formed.
- Pre-cut materials are formed without wastage.
- In-line welding, drilling and cutting-to-length operations can be performed at the end of the line.
