What is a Plate Roller Machine?

Definition

A plate roller machine is a mechanical device used to roll metal sheets into specific shapes. It mainly uses a set of rollers to complete the plate rolling operation. The main application of the plate bending machine is to bend flat metal materials into circles, cylindrical shapes, conical shapes or other curved shapes, and are used to manufacture various metal components such as pipes, cylinders, boilers, storage tanks, air ducts, and ship hulls. .

Composition

Plate rolling machines usually consist of upper rollers, lower rollers and side rollers. The position and angle of these rollers can be adjusted to accommodate sheet metal of different diameters and thicknesses. The working principle of the plate rolling machine is to gradually roll the metal plate into the required shape through the rotation and adjustment of the rollers. During operation, the operator needs to adjust the parameters of the plate rolling machine according to the requirements of the workpiece and the characteristics of the material to ensure the accuracy and quality of the plate rolling process.
