Material Basis
Steel S235 (240 N/mm²)

Applications

Where It Works

  • Rolling thick plate from 8 to 50 mm up to 4 m wide
  • Production runs of repeatable cylinders where 4-roll grip speeds cycle time
  • Heavy fabrication needing prebent edges with minimal flat ends

Features

Built In

  • A symmetrical 4-roll design grips the sheet between top and bottom rolls, so prebent edges come out with minimal flat portion and no need to flip the plate.
  • Four independently driven hydraulic rolls, synchronised with a swivel-out pinch roll, handle thick sheet from 8 to 50 mm across nearly 40 configurations.
  • Controlled pinching limits lamination on heavy plate, and EasyRoll CNC keeps repeatable diameters through production runs.
