This heavy industrial roll forming machine integrates two complete profile-making systems into one rigid vertical frame structure, enabling a single production line to manufacture both IBR (Inverted Box Rib) trapezoidal steel roofing sheets and traditional corrugated iron panels. Designed for manufacturers who supply galvanized iron roofing to construction markets, this machine eliminates the floor space and capital expense of running two independent roll formers. The upper roller assembly forms the IBR profile while the lower assembly handles corrugated iron wave geometry — switchover between the two simply requires repositioning the material feed guide, a task completed within minutes.
The load-bearing backbone is a fully welded structural steel frame fabricated from high-tensile H-beam or heavy channel steel sections (350H to 400H grade), thermally annealed post-welding to neutralize internal stress. Two independent roller trains are vertically stacked within this single chassis: the upper deck contains 14 to 18 forming stations configured for IBR rib geometry, while the lower deck holds 13 to 16 stations profiled for sinusoidal corrugated iron wave patterns. A common heavy-duty chain drive system transmits power from a single AC motor through a reduction gearbox, with synchronized sprockets ensuring identical linear feed speed through both roller sets.
Each forming roller begins as a 45# medium-carbon steel billet, CNC-turned to the exact profile contour, then undergoes case hardening followed by industrial hard chrome electroplating to a minimum deposit thickness of 0.05 mm. This dual treatment delivers a surface hardness of HRC 58–62, which is essential for two reasons: first, it prevents abrasive wear when processing zinc-coated galvanized iron coils where zinc oxide can accumulate on roller surfaces; second, the mirror-grade chrome finish eliminates micro-scratches on the sheet surface, preserving the galvanized coating integrity throughout the forming process. Each roller pair is mounted on Φ70–Φ80mm solid alloy shafts with precision keyways, supported by heavy-duty double-row self-aligning bearings in cast iron pillow blocks.
