No Waste Hydraulic Cut Guardrail U Post Roll Forming Machine
These introductions refer only to the production line and configuration shown in the main image. Each machine is custom-built. Metalign welcomes your inquiry and provides the right production line—forming metal into profiles aligned to your needs.
1. Production Line Overview
This U post roll forming line is designed for highway safety manufacturers and construction infrastructure suppliers. It produces U-shaped posts and block spacers from 3-5mm cold-rolled steel, featuring oval holes for screw installation. The line offers high precision, cost-effectiveness, and flexible customization to meet various project requirements.
2. Profile Description
3. Production Process
Decoiler - Guiding & Feeding - Leveling - Hydraulic Punching - Roll Former - Hydraulic Cutting - Out Table
The process begins with a 10T hydraulic decoiler that feeds the steel sheet through the guiding section. After leveling the material, hydraulic punching ensures accurate hole positioning. The material is shaped into the U post profile in the roll former, followed by hydraulic slant cutting, ensuring clean cuts without waste. Finally, the finished posts are placed on the out table.
4. Technical Parameters
Decoiler | Power type | Hydraulic |
Weight capacity | 10 Ton | |
Function | The 10T hydraulic decoiler uncoils the steel sheet, feeding it into the production line with consistent tension. | |
Benefits | Handles larger coils up to 10 tons for continuous production. | |
Hydraulic operation provides smooth, controlled uncoiling, preventing coil distortion. | ||
Reduces downtime by feeding material continuously, improving operational efficiency. | ||
Guiding unit | Type | Guiding rollers |
Function | The guiding unit aligns the steel sheet, ensuring it enters the roll forming machine without deviation. | |
Design | Features adjustable guiding rollers to accommodate various material widths. | |
Ensures smooth, accurate feeding, improving forming quality and reducing errors. | ||
Leveler | Function | The leveler flattens the steel sheet, eliminating any curvature or set from the coil. |
Benefits | Improves material flatness, ensuring even feeding and accurate forming. | |
Reduces defects caused by irregular material, enhancing product quality and consistency. | ||
Integrates with the forming machine to optimize production efficiency. | ||
