How to Adjust Roof Panel Roll Forming Machine

After the roll forming machine arrives at the user’s facility, the entire roof panel roll forming machine line should be inspected.

1. Check that all roll forming machine equipmentis included in the packing list, such as the steel un-coiler, product support, PLC control box, and installation tool kit.
2. Check that the hydraulic lines and valves on the cutting device are securely connected, that the electrical wiring (including the PLC, touch screen, and relays) is correct, and that the AC power supply is correctly wired. Is the motor rotating in the forward direction?
3. Set the production task on the touchscreen, such as cutting length, number of pieces, and batch size, and conduct a test run of the roof panel roll forming machinein manual mode.

Key Points for Roll Forming Equipment Adjustment

2. Align the feeder with the center line of the alignment machine. Check that the width of the metal coil is suitable for the machine feeder. Is it too wide or too narrow? During roll-forming machine operation and…
3. Adjust the forming rollers.Roof panel forming machinestypically have 16-22 steps. Ensure good contact between the upper and lower rollers of all forming rollers to prevent deformation.

Possible Problems: Waves appear on both sides, the board surface has raised bumps or localized deformation.

Solution: Adjust the gap between the upper and lower forming rollers to the appropriate position, adjust the position of the center roller, and distribute them on both sides of the forming machine.

Solution for Resolving Burrs on Cutting Blades

The cutting blades of roofing sheet forming machines are generally made of Cr12MoV or Cr12 and must be sharp. The front-to-back spacing between the upper and lower blades should be appropriate, recommended to be ≤0.05mm.

Possible Problems: Burrs on the cut edge of the roofing sheet and uneven cuts.

Solution:

1. Remove and sharpen the cutting blades. If necessary, adjust the cutting blades slightly according to the actual roofing sheet shape.
2. Polish the cutting blades regularly.
3. Adjust the hydraulic system pressure according to the metal roofing machine’s requirements to prevent blade overload due to excessive pressure or incomplete cutting due to insufficient pressure.
4. Use an encoder to detect and calculate the cutting length and ensure that the roofing sheet conveying speed is consistent with the cutting action of the cutting blades to ensure that the roofing sheet does not move during cutting.
