1.Dual Functionality: It produces two roofing sheet profiles—IBR (trapezoidal) and corrugated—from one machine, saving investment cost and factory space .
2.High Demand in Developing Markets: Countries like South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Peru have a growing demand for metal roofing in residential, commercial, and industrial construction, making these machines a strategic investment for local manufacturers .
3.Cost-Efficiency: Instead of buying two separate machines, users get two functions in one setup, reducing operating and maintenance costs .
4.Customization and Flexibility: These machines can be tailored for different coil widths and profile dimensions to meet regional building standards .
5.Space Saving Design: Their compact footprint makes them suitable even for small workshops or tight production floors .
IBR (Inverted Box Rib) and corrugated sheets are common metal roofing profiles.
The machine has two sets of roll forming stations (upper and lower) sharing the same base, allowing production of either profile by switching operations.
It includes a manual or hydraulic decoiler, roll forming system, cutting device, PLC control system, and output table.
Feeding: A metal coil is fed into the machine.
Forming: The machine uses rollers to gradually shape the sheet into the selected profile (IBR or corrugated), depending on the active layer.
Profile Selection: Operators switch between upper and lower layers using a clutch system or hydraulic lift, avoiding the need to change tooling.
Cutting: The formed sheet is automatically cut to the desired length by a hydraulic cutting system.
Discharge: Finished panels are pushed out onto a table or conveyor.
This setup increases productivity, saves floor space, and reduces investment cost compared to using two separate machines.
