Cold Roll Forming Machine Parts
Cold roll forming machines are used in various industries for shaping metal sheets into desired profiles through a continuous bending operation at room temperature. These machines consist of several essential parts, each playing a crucial role in the forming process. Here are some common parts/components found in a cold roll forming machine: 1. Decoiler: This part is used to hold and feed the raw material, usually in the form of a coil, into the forming machine. It unwinds the coil and feeds it into the forming rolls. 2. Feeding Guide: Feeding guides ensure proper alignment and feeding of the material into the forming rolls, minimizing misalignment and material waste. 3. Forming Rolls: These are the heart of the cold roll forming machine. Forming rolls are designed to gradually shape the material into the desired profile as it passes through them. They come in various shapes and sizes depending on the final profile required. 4. Drive System: A cold roll forming machine typically
