Steel C Purlin Roll Forming Machine

C purlin roll forming machine is an equipment that produces C shaped steel channels continuously out of galvanized or cold rolled steel strips from feeding, punching for holes, bending and cutting.

Traced back to tens of thousand years ago, people cut out logs or trees from the forest to build houses. At that time, the main components of a house are woods, including purlins.  According toWikipedia, “in traditional timber framing there are three basic types of purlin: purlin plate, principal purlin and common purlin”.  However, there are weak points on wooden Purlins which will rot away by water or bugs after a while and wood purlins cannot hold too much heavy roofings.

As time flew, people developed stone or concrete purlins which were strong enough to hold a house for long time.

However, the builders and house owners find that the owners have to spend much more money than using wood purlins; and that the builders must spend much more time than using wooden purlins.

Therefore, entering into modern ages, the stone or concrete purlins becomes the last choice for industrial or some individual buildings.
Due to more money and time required for installing stone or concrete purlins, and the development of roll forming machines, steel purlins drew attention out of architects. Finally, steel purlins have been increasingly popular for the steel structural buildings! Compared to traditional purlins, steel purlins have so many advantages, they are light, easy to install, and recyclable for other buildings etc. Therefore, as we can see, in mordern steel industrial buildings or prefab enineered buildings, people always use C purlinsZ purlins and sometime U purlins without flange stiffeners as well.

Brief Introduction of C Purlin Roll Forming Machine

Thanks to the change architects made about steel purlins, c purlin roll forming machine has been innovated for manufacturing C shaped section channels continuously from feeding of the material, straightening, roll forming, punching for holes or slots, and shearing. A traditional c channel roll forming machine is technically capable to manufacture as much as 6 different sizes C steel purlins.

Main components for a c sectional channel roll forming machine include a manual decoiler (3TONs capacity), a feeding guide for materials of different sizes, a levelling device, a front hydraulic punching for holes or slots on flanges, roll forming part, a rear hydraulic punching for holes or slots on web, a hydraulic cutting for cut to length, a PLC control cabinet, and and a hydraulic oil pump.

“You’ve made such a great roll forming equipment that helps me complete my projects so much faster and easier. ”

We make things easy for projects.

Roll forming machine usually is always our first choice as long as we need to produce metal sheet or steel section products. A roll forming machine can do automatic jobs of bending, cutting, pressing for holes and slots, and straightening etc.

Roll forming machines have so many advantages over press brake and shearing machines! With rollforming equipment, we can save much more time, working area, money as well as labors.

There are numourous applications where we need a roll forming machine. For example, we need roll forming machines to produce metal roofing and wall/siding. We must use decking roll forming machines to produce metal or steel decking for roofing and floor. Guardrail roll forming machines are used for producing crash barriers or guard rails on highway construction. Besides, we can find in the markets c/z steel purlin roll forming machines, top hat purlin roll formers; stud and track roll former for light weight steel buildings; down pipe roll forming machines and roll forming machines for door products etc.

Related Steel Purlin Roll Formers

C and Z steel purlins are necessary for the modern steel industrial buildings, and some residential building as well, and various kinds of c/z purlin roll forming machines have been developed to produce C/Z/U steel purlins.
