Máquinas Perfiladoras de Tejas Metálicas

Metal roofing tile roll forming machines are equipment used to produce metal roofing tiles and panels through continuous bending and forming of coil material. These versatile machines allow fast, high-volume production of roofing components with custom profiles.

This comprehensive guide covers all aspects of metal roofing tile roll formers from working principles and main components to models, specifications, applications and more.

Overview of Metal Roofing Tile Roll Forming Machines

What are Metal Roofing Tile Roll Forming Machines?

Metal roofing tile roll forming machines take flat metal coil stock and progressively form it into various roofing tile profiles through a series of roller dies and bending stages.

The continuous operation allows roofing components like panels, shingles and tiles to be mass-produced rapidly compared to manual fabrication.

Key Features and Working Principle

  • High speed continuous roll forming of metal coil into roofing tile profiles
  • Flexible production with quick roll set changeovers
  • Rollers and guides progressively shape flat strip into ribbed/corrugated profiles
  • Automated cutting after forming tiles of fixed length
  • Decoilers hold metal coil stock and feed strip through infeed guides
  • Forming roll stands with roller dies make repeated bends and forms
  • Adjustable for width, thickness, materials of coil stock
  • PLC based controls for automatic operation and monitoring

Main Components and Systems

Metal roof tile roll forming machines include the major components outlined below:

  • Coil Holding System: Decoiler or uncoiler holds metal coil stock and allows controlled feeding of strip through guides into first forming stand. Turntable type decoilers provide continuous feed without downtime.
  • Feeding and Guiding: Feed rollers grip and pull metal strip through guides maintaining proper alignment entering forming section.
  • Puestos de formación: Multiple stands with roller dies make progressive bends and profiles to coil strip transforming it into roofing tiles or panels.
  • Unidad de corte: Automated cut-off knives slice formed metal sheets into fixed tile/panel lengths for collection
  • Conveying and Stacker: Formed and cut sheets conveyed to exit stacker for organized collection
  • Controles: PLC based controls allow adjustable parameters and automated roll forming operation
  • Frame and Housing: Rigid structural frame houses components with safety covers and guards

Descripción general del proceso de perfilado

The basic working principle involves coil stock being unwound, straightened, and fed into the forming section. The strip passes through consecutive stands where precision roller dies make incremental bends. The cumulative effect of multiple bends transforms the flat strip into desired roofing tile profiles. The formed sheets are then cut into fixed lengths and stacked at the exit.
