Explore the common questions and answers about Steel Purlin machines
A: Our steel purlin roll forming machines are designed to produce a wide range of steel sections, including C purlins, Z purlins, U profiles, Omega sections, and Sigma beams. These profiles are widely used for steel structure buildings, warehouses, factories, and solar mounting systems.
A: The machines are suitable for galvanized steel, hot-rolled steel, cold-rolled steel, and high-tensile steel, with thickness ranges from 1.5 mm to 3mm, 2.0mm to 4.0 mm and 3mm to 5mm, depending on model specifications.
A: Depending on configuration, our purlin machines can achieve forming speeds of 10–25 meters per minute, with flying or hydraulic punching and cutting systems that allow high-speed, continuous production.
A: Sigma purlins are known for their high load-bearing capacity with reduced material usage, while Omega sections are commonly used in lightweight structures and cladding support. Both offer specialized solutions that complement traditional C and Z purlins.
A: The automatic interchangeable system allows the machine to switch between C and Z profiles quickly without replacing the entire roll set. With servo motors and PLC control, the changeover can be completed in minutes, increasing efficiency and reducing downtime.
A: That depens on what profiles. For C/U/Z and Sigama purlins, yes, the machines feature automatic or manual adjustment systems, enabling users to produce different web widths, flange heights, and lip sizes from a single machine, making it highly versatile for various project requirements.
A: All machines are equipped with advanced Siemens or Panasonic PLC systems, user-friendly touch screens, and encoder length control. For Servo trackign system, Xinjie rollforming specialized PLC control system is applied. This ensures accurate cutting, minimal material waste, and simple operation.
A: With a heavy-duty frame, precision-machined rollers, and gearbox transmission, the expected lifespan of the machines is 15–20 years with proper maintenance, making them a reliable investment for long-term production.
