Rollform machine are mass production machines that bring sheet metals to desired forms using roller dies and are used to produce closed and open profiles. They shape the sheet step by step and unlike press brakes they do not have any limits for the length of profiles.
They provide mass production of profiles such as M profile, J profile, U profile and drywall corner beads.
Roll forming machines work in a line together with decoilers and servo feeders. All systems on the line are selected according to needs. For example, decoilers -according to the type and weight of the load- are divided into hydraulic and mechanical decoilers. Mechanical decoilers are preferred for weights up to 4 tons, while hydraulic decoilers are preferred for higher weights. The decoiled sheet is transmitted to the roll forming machine by the servo feeder and thus the forming process begins. Different types of servo feeders such as servo feeders with straighteners or servo feeders without case can be selected if necessary.
Roll Forming Line Advantages
- Saves labor.
- Increases both production quality and production speed.
- Helps produce products at lower costs but with same quality.
- Helps reach high production volumes.
- Produces parts with identical lengths.
- Thus, it helps assemble the parts without any problems.
- Ensures the same amount of production with required cross sections even for the narrowest tolerances.
Ideal Preference for M Profile, J Profile, U Profile and Drywall Corner Beads Production
With roll form machine consisting of decoilers, servo feeders, press machines and rollforming machines, you can produce products such as cable trays e.g., M profiles, J profiles and U profiles and products such as drywall corner beads. You can increase your production efficiency with Mekanikel systems which allows you to standardize your product quality.
Drywall Corner Beads Production Machine
Drywall corner beads production Machine are generally preferred in indoor projects. Drywall corner beads are mostly applied to create sharp corners on concrete and brick floors. They are also called gypsum wall angles. They are generally preferred to be made of aluminum. Thanks to their perforated structures, drywall corner beads create durability in wall, plaster wall and suspended ceiling applications. Some of their other advantages are giving an aesthetic appearance and being resistant to impacts.
If you are going to use a drywall corner beads production line, you need to store them in flat, moisture-free environments. In addition to this, you need to take precautions against possible accidents, such as a load falling on the product.
M Profil Roll Forming Machine
Roll forming production process involves several machines producing different profile models. At the top of these is the M profile production machines. These machines consist of decoilers, servo feeders, roll forming machines and flying shears. In some cases, press brake systems can also be used. However, it is not recommended to use press brakes in M profile products which involve high number of processes. Apart from M profile machines, U profile manufacturing machines are also among the most used products.
M Profil Roll Forming Machine
Another type of roll forming machines is the J profile production machine. Generally, J profiles are used to form the horizontal skeleton on the main L anchor carriers. Also, they are made of 1.00 mm galvanized sheet. They also enable M profiles to be carried vertically. In addition, the assembly of J profiles can be carried out with trapezoidal screws. However, they are not preferred much for vertical applications.
Things to Consider When Choosing Spool Material
- CAD programs should be used in the design of roll forming machines. Thus, all parts can be designed professionally, from simple shapes to complex shapes.
- The molds that decide the profile cross-sections should be designed with CAD programs.
- Mold material selection should be made by considering the spring-back coefficients according to the quality and thickness of the sheet of the profile to be produced.
- Type of heat treatment for mold materials may vary according to the thickness of the profile to be produced
Industries Using Roll Forming Machines
Roll forming machines have a wide usage area. They have place in many different industries, especially in the construction industry. Roll forming machines, providing much success in mass production, are also used in the production of parts in the automotive industry. It is also possible to see roll forming machines used in the production of furniture accessories or white goods.
Meeting the needs of a wide range of industries, roll forming machines are also encountered in the electric and defense industries. In all respects, these machines provide time savings and quality in production. Moreover, they belong to the group of machines that are frequently used in the production of profile pipes.

Things to Consider When Buying Roll Forming Machine
One of the most important factors determining the quality of roll forming machines is determining the most suitable method for the job. For this reason, it is important to work with companies that have expert staff who can determine the right method.
Since the design phase of roll forming machines directly affects the quality of the profiles to be produced, it is important that they are designed with experienced staff.
It is important for machine quality to work with a company that can fulfill the requirements of the job from design to manufacturing stage and is experienced in the selection of automation equipment, machine equipment and mold material.
What is a roll form machine?
Roll form machine; It is the machine that performs the rollform process together with the decoiler, servo driver, rollform and optionally the press. The system where these machines are combined is called a roll form line. The production process, which starts with the uncoiler, is completed with the flying scissors.
What does a rollforming machine do?
Rollforming machines are machines that produce products such as gypsum angle iron, j profile, c profile, u profile and m profile by shaping metal sheet. The system is arranged according to the characteristics of the product to be produced and mass production is possible.
What are the roll form machine prices?
Roll form machine prices vary according to the characteristics of the product to be produced and customer requirements. You can reach the most accurate price information for these specially produced systems by contacting us.
