Section Rolling Machine
A section rolling machines, also known as an angle roll, profile bending or pipe bending machine, is an essential tool in the sheet metal industry. They are used for shaping and forming metal sections into curves, arches, or complex profiles. These machines are indispensable in producing metal components for a wide variety of applications, including structural steelwork, architectural designs, and industrial machinery.
The section bending machine operates with three or four rollers. Two bottom rollers typically provide support and a fixed centre, while the top roller(s) applies pressure for the bending operation. Our advanced section bending machines are equipped with CNC (Computer Numerical Control) systems for increased precision and automation.
Application of a Section Rolling Machine
Section rollers are crucial in various sectors of the sheet metal industry. Key applications include:
- Structural Steelwork: Bending structural beams and columns to form arches or curved shapes for bridges, tunnels, and other infrastructures.
- Architectural Design: Creating curved profiles for building facades, staircases, and decorative elements.
- Shipbuilding and Offshore: Bending pipes and structural profiles for the construction of ships, oil rigs, and offshore platforms.
- Industrial Machinery: Forming metal parts for machinery, including conveyor systems, frames, and supports.
