It would be fair to say that plate rolling is an art in comparison to many other processes in the fabrication world. Being a skilled and seasoned plate rolling machine operator is as important as having the proper machinery and equipment in order to achieve the desired job results. What is Plate Rolling? In a… Read More »Roll Out Flats When Roll Bending on a 4-Roll Bending Rolls
Cylinders, arcs, and cones in a variety of sizes, thicknesses, and materials are some of the most commonly rolled components. Edge Cracks During a cold roll bending a metal cone with a cone rolling machine, the metal might show some cracks on the edges. This phenomenon occurs from secondary tensile stresses induced at the workpiece… Read More »How to roll bending a cone without cracks
What are metal cones used for? Cones are used in many industries as transitions, pipe reducers/increasers, funnels, hoppers, and chutes. In architecture, cones are generally used for aesthetic purposes, whereas they tend to have a more functional use in construction. This can include the offshore wind industry as well as fossil fuel and gas industries.… Read More »4 basic key explanations for producing metal cones
The wind tower has developed rapidly in recent years, and we have found its tall figure in many places. Well, behind the fact that they provide us with clean energy, we should ask the question, why does it need to be so high?This is a question about the actual design of the wind towers themselves.… Read More »Rolling wind tower cone by cone rolling machine
Principle of Roll Cone The cylinder and the cone can be regarded as the cylinder and the cone of the workpiece are rotated 360 degrees around the rotation centerline in the same plane. The bar of the cylindrical workpiece is parallel to the rotation center line, and the busbar and the rotation center of the… Read More »How To Roll A Cone With Plate Rolling Machine
Why is the plate rolling process deformed? Steel plate bending machines (whether there are two or three bottom rollers) have a top roller. The size of the top roller can be adjusted to roll the board into a cylinder or cylinder segment so that its radius is close to the diameter of the top roller. However, the… Read More »How to reduce the deformation of the plate rolling process?
How does the plate bending machine bend the plate? It is not easy to bend a thick steel plate to a narrow radius. There are many variables to consider, such as thickness, surface and edge conditions, and the chemical composition of the material. Plate bending is a process in which a force is applied to the plate,… Read More »Bending Basics: Bending Thick Steel Plate
The plate roller, one of the oldest technologies in metal fabrication, isn’t like a typical mature technology. Although some plate bending machine iterations are more common than others, many kinds of plate rollers have made their way to shop floors. Owing to the vast models and types of plate bending machines in the market, sometimes it can… Read More »4 Important Parameters for Choosing the Right Plate Roller
What Kind of Plate Bending Machine do you need? Plate Bending Machine The plate bending machine is a piece of equipment that is used to roll various types of sheet metal into round, semi-round, and round with varying radii or conical shapes. Plate Rolling Machines consisting of 2 to 4 roller sets press, engage, and… Read More »3 Important Things Must Know – Plate Rolling Machine Guide
Operator of the plate roller The operator must be familiar with the structure and operation of the roll bending machine, and then the equipment manager will be qualified to carry out the roll operation of the rolling machine. The rolling process must arrange for two people to be operated at the same time, a person… Read More »How to use plate rolling machine
