Sheet metal roll-forming equipment uses a series of rolls to form complex seams and flanges on lighter gauge sheet metal. The majority of roll-forming machines are geared toward fabricating duct and duct connectors for the HVAC industry. Properly operating a glazed tile roll forming machine goes beyond how to turn the machine on; it also includes daily inspections, oiling and cleaning to ensure that the rolls operate smoothly, that the guards are in place and that the metal does not jam, which can cause an injury.

1

Put on your safety glasses.
2

Place the socket that matches the guard bolts onto the 3/8-inch drive ratchet and loosen the nuts that hold the guard onto the top of the purlin roll forming machine.

3

Lift the guard up to remove it from the top of the roll former.

4

Blow out the area between the rolls with the air hose to remove metal shavings and other debris from the series of rolls, and spray the rolls with tool oil to add lubrication and prevent corrosion from forming on the face of the rolls.
5

Slide the guard back over the studs and tighten the nuts with the ratchet to secure the guard to the roll-forming machine.
6

Inspect the installed guard to ensure that no part of the guard falls into the feed area of the metal roll forming machine and that the starting guide located on the feeder bed, in front of the guard, is not damaged.
7

Turn on the roll-forming machine by depressing the green start button.
8

Rest the side of the metal that is going to be roll formed against the starting guide and slide the metal toward the guide.
9

Support the metal sheet as it is grabbed by the cable tray roll forming machine, works its way down through the series of rolls and is ejected from the far side of the roll-forming machine.
10

Inspect the finished rolled edge to ensure that the clearances are correct. If you notice that the seam is malformed or jammed tight, adjust the rolls according to the operating manual and run another piece of sheet metal through the roll-forming machine.

So far, the most common products of machinery manufacturing enterprises are equipments to process plate, to forge and to press liquid, which all belong to the category of metal roll forming machine. With a wide use in the fields of transportation, resources, machinery and electricity generation, the demand for the vehicles industry of metal roll forming machine is increasing rapidly.

Such kind of growing need of metal roll forming machine can be embodied in the area of vehicles industry fiercely. The consumption of metal roll forming machine in this area mainly includes CNC Punch, CNC Bending Machine and a whole set of plate processing equipment, which are used in the production line of assemble vehicles and parts processing. Related surveys show that vehicles industry has occupied about 40% of the total amount of metal roll forming machine. According to the document of our country on auto industry restructuring and revitalization plan, vehicles industry will get capital investment that is up to 1.5trillion yuan from the period of “Eleventh Five Year Plan” to the period of “Thirteenth Five Year Plan”. If we generally regard the average investment for each year as a hundred billion yuan, cost of equipments may get a 70percent while metal roll forming machine will take up half of those equipments, we can say that the potential market for metal roll forming machine that vehicles industry provides can be valued as 35billion yuan.

However, from the perspective of the whole business, metal roll forming machine has a 3.6% of profit in the total amount of machinery in our country. In comparison, the ratio in German machine industry is as high as 6.1%. In this way, we should admit that machine industry, as the core of the field of equipments producing, has not fulfilled its most value yet. But we can see it brightly that this business has a great room for further development.

Firstly, the working principle of full-automatic disc type plastics injection, it is common equipment in shoemaking enterprise, also called electricity-eating tigers. Our country is a country with shoe powers; there are a large number of shoemaking equipments in our country. The characteristics of full automatic disc type plastic injection roll forming machines as bellows:

This kind of machine is specialized use in producing different kinds of single, double or three color sports shoes, casual shoes soles, private sole and so on. Raw materials are used in the production of foam thermal plasticity, such as PVC, TPR and so on. This kind of machine is controlled by computer program, such as single chip microcomputer and PLC. The computer host and vice machine are controlled precisely, simple to operate and easy to maintain. The design of the switch with matching closed mold master cylinder in the roll forming machines which works as roll forming machinery, can mold clamping and establish clamping force immediately to ensure the quality of the products. Proportional pressure control and independent operation with module material pressure are suitable for product manufacturing of different injection volume.

Secondly, here is the saving principle of the disc machine. During the working process of the disc machine, there is a very dramatic mutation process, its impact of the machine is very big and affect the service life of the whole injection system. Among these shoes factories domestic at present, there are a large amount of old equipments, their degrees of automation are very low and energy consumption is big. These machines are designed by the largest production capacity, but in fact, such big power should not be used in the process of producing. The speed of the oil pump kept the same, so the output power is almost the same; this phenomenon appears during the production which caused amount of energy waste.

Variable-frequency operation technology we used of the disc machine, the pressure and flow signal from computer board of the disc machine when checking the frequency converter, the pressure and flow signal is 0~1a. Through internal dealing to output different frequency and adjusting the speed of the roll forming machines which means output power and pressure, also flow rate, both of them are at the same aromatic tracking, it is like that the quantitative pump changed into energy-saving variable pump. The system of original liquid matched with the power of the whole roll forming machines, which eliminated the loss of original system with high-pressure. It can reduce the vibration of mold greatly, and stable production process, improve the quality of products, decrease failure of machines to prolong the service life of the inverter in the roll forming machines and save a lot of electricity.

The characteristics of frequency energy-saving are showed in different facets, such as easy to operate, high reliability, sort start, high rate of return and so on, which make the roll forming machines work smoothly in roll forming machinery.
