Things to Consider when buying a NEW OR USED PLATE ROLL?
The decision of whether to buy a new or used plate roll or angle roll will depend on individual circumstances, such as budget, the specific application, and the availability of machines
There are several important features to consider when choosing a plate roll:
- Capacity: The capacity of the plate roll is one of the most important features to consider. It should be able to handle the thickness and width of the metal sheets that you plan to roll.
- Size: The size of the plate roll should be appropriate for the size of the metal sheets you plan to work with, as well as the space available in your workshop or factory.
- Control System: A user-friendly control system that allows for easy adjustment of the bending rolls is important. Look for a plate roll with features such as programmable controllers, digital readouts, and intuitive interfaces.
- Speed: The speed at which the plate roll can roll metal sheets is an important consideration, as it can affect productivity and efficiency. Look for a machine with adjustable speed control, as this allows for a more flexible and precise operation.
- Precision: The precision and accuracy of the plate roll is also important, especially for complex bending operations. Look for a machine that has high-quality rollers, bearings, and other components that can ensure precise and repeatable bends.
- Durability: The durability of the machine is also an important feature to consider. Look for a machine that is made from high-quality materials and components, as this can ensure a long service life and reduce the need for maintenance and repairs.
- Safety: Safety features of the plate roll is an important consideration for operators. Look for a machine with features such as emergency stop buttons, safety guards, and interlocks, to ensure safe and reliable operation.
Metal Plate rolling is an essential process of metal fabrication utilizing a plate roll or commonly known as a bending machine.
Most products created during plate rolling are sophisticated cutting edge and unique utility type equipment. Plate rolling forms a sheet of steel, aluminum, or stainless material into circular and other shapes by force thru powered rollers. It can roll into round and semi-round shapes, and even a square.
A plate rolling machine is powered by hydraulics or mechanical. The material is firmly held between the rolls, and another roll is then brought into position pushing to create the desired material to bend and be shaped. Plate rollers form many common parts used today such as Propane tanks, tin cans, fuel tanker trucks, water tanks and piping.
There are many different types of plate rolls as well as several pros and cons to choosing the right roll machine. Make sure you know the material type, thickness and yield strength you will be using.
The most popular design mostly due to cost is the 3 roll initial pinch. For more affordable designs and for heavier bending applications there is a 3 roll double pinch. The 4 roll double pinch is the most versatile. Pyramid Rolls are great for low production and give a wide range of bending applications. Rolling of flat sheet metal creates pipes, tanker trailers, buckets and press vessels.
When choosing the type of plate roll you need be certain to choose the correct size plate roller. It must match your application, the material you will be using, and more importantly your operator skill level.
