In today's manufacturing industry, roll forming machines have become an essential means of producing thin and lightweight metal profiles. KINGREAL offers a wide range of roll forming machine manufacturing solutions, from simple production lines suitable for startups exploring new markets to fully automated systems for large-scale production of finished products, catering to diverse customer needs. Particularly for processing thin materials, KINGREAL provides specialized roll forming machines, including ●suspended ceiling making machine and ceiling channel making machine●, which not only effectively improve production efficiency but also ensure forming precision.

▍The Importance of Roll Forming Machines for Thin Sheets

The importance of roll forming machines in manufacturing is self-evident. With the development of the building decoration, machinery, and automotive industries, the demand for thin and lightweight metal profiles is increasing. Especially in specific applications such as ceiling installation, partition structures, and exterior wall decoration, thin yet robust profiles are required. Therefore, efficient and precise roll forming machines are key to a company's competitive advantage.

The diversity of customer projects necessitates flexible design for roll forming machines. Some scenarios may require thinner, lighter profiles, while others may demand higher strength and stability. In these cases, machine configuration and adjustment become crucial. KINGREAL roll forming machines can be flexibly adjusted to meet different needs, ensuring that products achieve an optimal balance between technical requirements and economic efficiency.

▍Applications of Roll Forming Machines in Processing Thin Sheet Metal

(1)Suspended Ceiling Making Machine

Suspended ceiling making machines are specifically designed to produce various profiles related to suspended ceiling systems, including suspended ceiling panels and exterior wall panels. These suspended ceiling making machines primarily process thin and light materials such as galvanized steel sheets, aluminum sheets, and roll-coated sheets. The design of ceiling making machines requires consideration of multiple factors to ensure forming quality and efficiency.

(1.1)Design elements of suspended ceiling making machines for thin sheets

-Roll Design: Rolls are critical components that directly act on the material and must be optimized based on the mechanical properties of thin and light materials. For example, the material and surface treatment of the rolls need to be considered to ensure that excessive deformation is not caused to the material during the forming process.

-Forming Passes and Deformation Distribution: When designing a roll forming machine for thin sheet, it is necessary to rationally arrange the forming passes to ensure a uniform distribution of material deformation during the forming process, thereby improving the quality of the finished product.

-Roll Gap and Parallelism Control: For processing thin and light materials, precise control of the roll gap is crucial to ensure that the material does not warp during rolling.

(1.2)Processing thicknesses of various suspended ceiling making machines

In specific operations, different types of suspended ceiling making machines have strict requirements for material thickness:

-Baffle Ceiling Machine: Suitable for iron plates with a thickness of 0.4-0.7mm and aluminum plates with a thickness of 0.3-1.0mm.

-Open Cell Ceiling Machine: Suitable for processing iron plates with a thickness of 0.25-0.4mm and aluminum plates with a thickness of 0.3-0.4mm.

-Linear Strip Ceiling Machine: Primarily for aluminum plates with a thickness of 0.4-0.6mm.

-Facade Panel Roll Forming Machine: Processes PPGI and steel with a thickness of 0.6-1mm.

-Ceiling T Bar Machine: Suitable for iron plates with a thickness of 0.23-0.35mm and roller-coated iron plates with a thickness of 0.3-0.4mm.

(2) Ceiling Channel Making Machine

Ceiling channel making machines are mainly divided into ●stud and track machine and metal ceiling channel machine●. The former is mainly used for partition wall installation, while the latter is used to support ceiling structures. Since partition walls and ceiling channels are non-load-bearing structures, the requirements for material thickness are relatively light.

Most ceiling channels on the market are made of thin and lightweight materials, which not only improves construction efficiency but also reduces transportation and installation costs. Stud and track machines can be further divided into light-duty and heavy-duty machines based on the thickness of the material being processed. Light-duty stud and track machines handle materials with a thickness of 0.35-0.9mm, while heavy-duty stud and track machines handle materials with a thickness of 0.9-1.2mm. Metal ceiling channel machines are mainly used for processing 0.4-1.3mm GI strips.

When processing thin and lightweight materials, due to the low rigidity of the material itself, deviations during the feeding process can easily lead to material deformation. Therefore, the design of the metal ceiling channel machine's feeding mechanism is crucial. To ensure feeding accuracy, KINGREAL metal ceiling channel machines are equipped with high-precision feeding devices, controlling the feeding accuracy within ±0.1mm. Simultaneously, to prevent dust and impurities from entering the rolls and bearings and affecting forming accuracy, protective shields can be added to the metal ceiling channel machine to ensure production safety.
