Roll Forming Machine Manufacturer in China

A roll forming machine is an industrial equipment used to continuously shape sheet metal into specific profiles by passing it through a series of precisely aligned rollers.

The process starts when flat metal coils are loaded into the uncoiler and fed into the machine. As the sheet passes through multiple roll stations, each set of rollers incrementally bends the material until the desired cross-sectional shape is achieved.

This cold forming technique maintains the metal’s thickness while improving its strength and dimensional accuracy. Roll forming is widely used in the production of purlins, metal roofing panels, sandwich panels, garage door panels, and more.

Compared to press brakes or stamping, roll forming offers higher production speed, consistent quality, and cost efficiency for medium to large-scale manufacturing.

C and Z purlins are structural steel members used to support roofing and wall cladding in metal building construction. The main difference lies in their shape and application. C purlins have a consistent C-shaped cross-section and are typically used as roof purlins, wall girts, and structural frames where one orientation suffices. Z purlins have a Z-shaped cross-section with an overlapping design that allows them to interlock and be lapped for continuous runs, providing greater structural efficiency over longer spans. Z purlins are commonly chosen when the design requires overlapping sections or when optimizing material for large projects. Our C/Z purlin roll forming machines can produce both profiles with high precision.

Our roll forming machines are designed to process a wide range of materials, depending on your application and product requirements. Common materials include galvanized steel (GI), galvalume steel (GL), cold-rolled steel (CR), hot-dip aluminum-zinc coated steel, pre-painted color-coated steel, stainless steel, and sometimes aluminum sheets.

The machines are capable of handling thicknesses typically ranging from 0.3 mm to 6.0 mm, depending on the profile and material strength. We can also customize the machine design to suit specific materials or surface finishes, ensuring optimal forming performance and minimal surface scratches or deformation.

A PU sandwich panel is a building material consisting of two metal sheets bonded to a rigid polyurethane (PU) foam core.

PU sandwich panels are known for their superior thermal insulation, fire resistance, and long-term durability compared to expanded polystyrene (EPS) panels. PU foam has a much lower thermal conductivity, which means better energy efficiency in buildings.

Additionally, PU panels offer higher compressive strength, better dimensional stability, and reduced water absorption. While EPS panels are cheaper, PU panels provide a more premium solution for cold storage, clean rooms, and energy-efficient buildings.

Our PU sandwich panel production lines deliver high-quality panels with consistent foam density and excellent adhesion.

Selecting the right roll forming machine depends on several factors. Start by identifying the profile shape and dimensions you need, as this determines the roller design and machine configuration.

Next, consider the material type and thickness, which affect the machine’s forming force and power requirements. Production capacity is another key factor—high-speed lines are recommended for large-scale operations, while simpler manual machines can suffice for smaller jobs.

Also, evaluate the level of automation and budget you prefer. Our engineering team is ready to help you analyze your requirements and recommend the most suitable machine solution to ensure optimal performance and return on investment.
