1. Equipment Definition
The Glazed Tile Roll Forming Machine is a specialized automated device used to produce imitation antique glazed tiles (commonly used for traditional Chinese architectural roofs). It employs a roll-forming process to continuously press metal sheets (such as galvanized aluminum steel or color-coated steel) or clay blanks into tiles with classical glazed tile designs. The final product combines traditional aesthetics with the durability of modern materials.
2. Core Functions
Material Compatibility: Processes metal sheets (typical thickness: 0.3-0.8mm) or clay blanks (requires a drying kiln).
Forming Process: Uses multiple sets of roller dies to gradually shape the tile's curvature, ribs, drip edges, and other details.
Surface Treatment: Some models integrate coating or glaze-spraying functions (to mimic the glossy finish of glazed tiles).
High Efficiency: Automated production line for continuous forming, fixed-length cutting, and stacking.
3. Key Components
1. Uncoiler Feeds metal coils or clay blanks into the system.
2. Leveling Device: Ensures flat material entry into the rollers.
3. Roll Forming Unit: Core component with 10-20 sets of precision roller dies for step-by-step shaping.
4. Hydraulic/Servo System: Controls pressure and speed for different materials.
5. Cutting Unit: Pneumatic or hydraulic shear for fixed-length cutting.
6. Stacking Table: Automatically stacks finished tiles.
4. Key Advantages
High Fidelity: Accurately replicates traditional glazed tile curves and patterns.
Strength & Weather Resistance: Metal tiles resist wind pressure, corrosion, and last over 30 years.
Easy Installation: Lightweight metal tiles can overlay existing roofs, reducing structural load.
Eco-Friendly: Recyclable materials and pollution-free production (vs. traditional clay tile firing).
5. Application Scenarios
Historic Restoration: Temples, palaces, heritage district renovations.
Cultural Tourism: Antique-style commercial streets, garden landscapes.
Modern Architecture: Roof decoration for villas, hotels, museums with Chinese aesthetics.
