Output

What This Machine Produces

01

Ribbed wall cladding — the standard industrial wall profile, in effective widths from 600 to 1000 mm.

02

Concealed-fix wall panels — the panel fixes through a hidden tongue or clip rather than a visible screw, so the facade shows only a clean shadow line. These need more forming stations because the interlocking edge has to be formed accurately.

03

Flat panels — the most demanding wall product to produce, because a flat surface shows every coil defect and coating mark that a deep profile would hide.

04

Soffit and fascia sections — narrow, more complex profiles for the underside of a roof overhang and the edge trim. These usually run on the same frame with a dedicated cassette.

05

Panels in 0.4–0.8 mm PPGI, galvanised, Zincalume or aluminium at 15–25 m/min.

06

Wall cladding from the same coil stock as the roof, which is what allows a building to be delivered in one consistent colour and finish.

Line Composition

Recommended Configuration

A complete working line, not just the forming machine. Each item below is quoted as one package.

  1. 01

    7-roller leveling unit, included as standard

    this unit matters more on wall cladding than on roof sheet. A flat wall panel shows coil set and cross-bow across the whole face, where a deep roof profile hides it in the ribs.

  2. 02

    Wall cladding roll forming machine

    14–20 stations on a gearbox chain drive at 7.5–11 kW, forming at 15–25 m/min.

  3. 03

    Two cassettes for a roof-and-wall combination

    many customers run roof and wall profiles on one machine where the effective widths are similar, which spreads the machine cost over two product lines.

  4. 04

    Hydraulic flying cut with auto length and batch

    wall panels are cut to storey and bay dimensions, so the batch counter is what keeps a building set together.

  5. 05

    PLC with HMI

    profile, length and batch are selected rather than set.

  6. 06

    Separate accessory machine for soffit and fascia (optional)

    narrow complex sections can usually run on the same frame with a dedicated cassette, but many producers use the small accessory machine that also makes ridge caps, because that steadies the main line.

How It Runs

Production Workflow

  1. 01

    Decoiler

    Coil is loaded and uncoiled at controlled tension. Wall cladding is visible over its whole surface, so anything that shows on the finished face has to be avoided from the decoiler onward.

  2. 02

    Leveling

    A 7-roller leveling unit, supplied as standard, removes coil set and cross-bow. This is the step that decides whether a flat panel is saleable — the defect cannot be removed after forming.

  3. 03

    Roll forming

    14–20 stations form the ribbed or concealed-fix section in 0.4–0.8 mm material at 15–25 m/min. Concealed-fix profiles use the upper end of that station count.

  4. 04

    Cutting

    A hydraulic flying cut cuts to length with a batch counter, so a building set comes off together.

  5. 05

    Output

    Panels leave on the runout table, bundled by elevation so the installer receives them in the order they are needed.

  6. 06

    Accessories

    Soffit, fascia and matching ridge caps can run on the same frame with dedicated cassettes, or on a separate small accessory machine.

Common Questions

FAQ — Metal Wall Cladding Roll Forming Machine

Can the same machine make roof and wall profiles?
Often yes, if the effective widths are similar. Many customers run roof and wall profiles on one machine with two cassettes, which spreads the cost over two product lines.
What is concealed-fix wall cladding?
It is a wall panel that fixes through a hidden tongue or clip rather than a visible screw, so the facade shows only a clean shadow line. It needs more forming stations because the interlocking edge has to be formed accurately.
Which thickness is typical for wall cladding?
0.4–0.6 mm for standard ribbed cladding, and 0.6–0.8 mm where the cladding spans further between purlins or where higher wind loads apply.
Does the line include a leveling unit?
Yes. A 7-roller leveling unit is standard, because flat wall panels show coil set and cross-bow far more visibly than a deep roof profile.
Can soffit and fascia be made on the same line?
Soffit and fascia are narrow, more complex sections. They can usually be run on the same frame with a dedicated cassette, but many producers use the small accessory machine that also makes ridge caps.
What is the delivery and payment term?
40–55 days FOB Tianjin. Standard terms are 30% advance with the balance against a copy of the bill of lading; other terms can be discussed.
Can the machine be built for our own profile?
Yes. Send the profile drawing with the section dimensions, the material and thickness, and the coil width you intend to run. We confirm the roll design, forming stations and line layout against that drawing before quoting, so the machine matches the section you actually sell.
How do we get a price for this line?
Send the profile drawing or section dimensions, the material and thickness, the coil width, and your target output per shift. Price depends on the profile, the coil and the level of automation, so we quote against your actual job rather than a catalogue figure.
Which coil materials can the line run?
The line forms PPGI, GI, Zincalume, aluminium. Confirm the exact grade with your order so the tooling and drive are matched to it — that is decided at the design stage, not on site.
What is the production speed?
Forming speed is 15 – 25 m/min. Treat this as the line speed: real shift output also depends on cut length, coil reloading and how often the profile is changed.
How many forming stations does it use?
The line uses 14 – 20 forming stations. Station count follows the section — more bends and tighter tolerances need more forming steps, which is why two profiles rarely share one roll set.
What is the drive and installed power?
Drive: Gearbox chain drive, 7.5 – 11 kW. Final drive sizing is confirmed against your profile and coil, because a wider or thicker section needs more torque to hold the same line speed.
