Introduction to 840mm Glazed Tile Roll Forming Machine
The 840mm Glazed Tile Roll Forming Machine is an automated equipment designed to produce glazed tiles (wave-shaped roofing tiles for traditional or modern architecture). It utilizes a roll-forming process to continuously shape metal coils (such as color steel plates, galvanized sheets, aluminum-magnesium-manganese alloys, etc.) into specific waveforms (e.g., glazed tile patterns). The "840mm" in its name typically refers to the effective coverage width of the formed tile (i.e., the horizontal dimension of a single tile).
Structure and Components
1. Uncoiler
Carries metal coils and supports automatic uncoiling and alignment to ensure smooth material feeding into the roll-forming system.
2. Roll Forming System
Core Component: Consists of multiple sets of precision rollers (usually 10-20 pairs) arranged sequentially. These rollers progressively bend flat metal sheets into preset glazed tile waveforms (e.g., arc, S-shape).
Material: Rollers are made of high-hardness alloy steel or chrome-plated surfaces for wear resistance and precise forming.
3. Cutting Unit
Equipped with hydraulically or servo-driven cutting blades to automatically trim formed tiles to specified lengths (e.g., 1-2 meters per tile), ensuring clean, burr-free cuts.
4. Control System
PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) + touchscreen interface for setting production speed, cutting length, and roll-forming parameters, enabling automated continuous production.
5. Hydraulic/Power System
Provides stable power for roll-forming and cutting operations.
Working Principle
1. Uncoiling: Metal coils are unwound and leveled via the uncoiler.
2. Roll Forming: The material passes through multiple roller sets, gradually shaped into the glazed tile waveform.
3. Length Cutting: Formed tiles are measured and precisely cut to specified lengths.
4. Stacking/Output: Finished tiles are automatically stacked or conveyed to a designated area.
