The oPm roll forming system for structural profiles offers a reliable, fast, and efficient way to produce profiles from galvanized steel. It handles sheet thicknesses up to 3 mm and maintains high accuracy throughout the production cycle. Typical products include electrical cable trays, solar panel supports, and other industrial structural profiles.
This system operates in continuous mode. It reaches speeds of up to 25 meters per minute, delivering consistent results and high throughput. In addition, the system is user-friendly. Even less experienced operators can manage it with minimal training. The 15-inch touchscreen interface makes the setup process fast and intuitive. You can quickly switch production from one profile type to another, which improves flexibility.
A key strength of the roll forming system for structural profiles lies in its modular design and high-quality components. These include:
The motorized uncoiler feeds metal coils into the system. It supports up to 2 tons and adjusts speed automatically. As a result, the sheet advances smoothly without interruptions. The system maintains constant tension for accurate feeding.
The eccentric press performs punching operations with oversized tonnage. This allows flexible tooling setups. You can change molds easily, which helps you create different structural profiles. Moreover, the press ensures clean and precise punching every time.
The electronic feeder keeps the material synchronized with both the press and the roll forming line. It ensures smooth and timed material advancement. Thanks to its precision, the feeder reduces mechanical stress and improves profile quality.
The roll forming line uses motor-driven rollers with encoder feedback. These rollers gradually shape the metal into the desired structural profile. Each set of rollers is customized for specific geometries. In addition, the optional cassette system allows fast roller changes.
The PLC controls the entire process. You can set the profile length, quantity, and type of operation from the touchscreen. It also includes fault detection, alarms, and diagnostic tools. If needed, Industry 4.0 software allows real-time monitoring and remote access.
The roll forming system for structural profiles offers a wide range of operational benefits:
The system runs continuously. It produces up to 25 meters of structural profiles per minute. This performance suits both small batches and large-scale production.
Precision matters in industrial components. This system delivers a length tolerance of ±1 mm and punching accuracy of ±0.2 mm. Therefore, each profile meets tight technical requirements
You can produce various structural profiles by changing molds and roller sets. The cassette system further reduces changeover time. As a result, you can switch profiles quickly and keep your production line running.
Once you enter the parameters, the system handles the rest. Material feeding, punching, shaping, cutting, and collecting occur automatically. This reduces labor costs and human errors.
Operator safety is a top priority. The system follows CE standards and includes both active and passive safety measures. Sensors, guards, and emergency stop functions protect users at all times.
The touchscreen PLC simplifies every task. Clear menus and instructions guide the operator step-by-step. Even first-time users can start production quickly and safely.
The workflow is designed for maximum efficiency and minimal intervention. Here’s how the roll forming system for structural profiles operates step by step:
Setup Phase
The operator enters profile length, quantity, and profile type into the PLC. Tooling changes take just a few minutes.
Material Feeding
The uncoiler starts feeding the metal coil. The electronic feeder advances the sheet with perfect timing.
Punching and Profiling
The press performs punching tasks while the material moves forward. Immediately after, the sheet passes through the roll forming line and takes shape.
Cutting the Profile
The PLC signals the cutter to operate when the profile reaches the desired length. The system pauses for two seconds, cuts, and then resumes automatically.
Profile Collection
The finished structural profiles drop into the collection tray. Operators remove them easily and stack them for transport or further processing.
Structural profiles made by roll forming serve many industries. For example:
Electrical installations: Cable trays, brackets, and wire channels
Renewable energy: Solar panel mounts and frames
Construction: Studs, tracks, beams, and supports
HVAC systems: Air duct brackets and suspension systems
Storage and logistics: Industrial shelving and support structures
In all these sectors, structural profiles must meet high standards for strength, consistency, and durability. The roll forming system ensures that each profile is uniform and ready for immediate use.
Choosing the right equipment is crucial. Our roll forming system for structural profiles combines speed, precision, and flexibility. You can increase production without sacrificing quality. Also, you reduce downtime with fast tool changes and automated controls.
In addition, the system is built for long-term use. Components resist wear and require minimal maintenance. Thanks to its modular design, you can upgrade the machine easily over time.
Whether you produce simple profiles or complex shapes, this system adapts to your needs. It grows with your business and supports a wide range of structural profile applications.
