Roll Forming Equipment Buying Checklist

Use this technical checklist to organize raw coil properties, profile drawing requirements, drive configuration, and pre-shipment trial scope before requesting a formal commercial quotation. Clear specifications help minimize post-order design revisions and support accurate tooling design.

01 Raw Coil & Metallurgy Specifications
Done Specification Item Recommended Checkpoints & Criteria Buyer Project Input
Base Metal Grade Identify specific alloy: Commercial Q235 (equiv. S235 / A36), high-yield structural steel, aluminum alloy, or stainless steel.
Decimal Thickness Range Specify confirmed decimal thickness in millimeters (e.g. 0.35 mm to 0.70 mm). Avoid nominal trade gauges which vary by region.
Yield Strength Properties Provide yield strength range from Mill Test Certificates (MTC). Required for roller springback compensation calculation.
Coating & Surface Finish Identify coating: Hot-dip Galvanized (GI), Galvalume (GL/Aluzinc), Prepainted (PPGI), or Zinc-Aluminum-Magnesium (ZAM).
Coil Dimensions & Weight Specify max coil weight (Tons), strip width (mm), inner diameter (ID: 508 mm or 610 mm), and max outer diameter (OD).
02 Profile Geometry & Dimensional Requirements
Done Specification Item Recommended Checkpoints & Criteria Buyer Project Input
Cross-Section Drawing Provide 2D CAD drawing (.DWG / .DXF) or vector PDF showing all dimensions, rib heights, valley widths, and inside bend radii.
Effective Coverage Width State the required effective installed building coverage width and overall formed profile width.
Overlap & Capillary Groove Verify weather-lap details: anti-capillary siphon siphon groove on the under-lap rib to prevent water seepage.
Punching & Notching Details If purlin or strut profiles require holes: indicate round/slotted hole patterns, hole pitch, and edge margin requirements.
Finished Cut Lengths Specify standard production lengths, min/max cut length capability, and finished product stacking logistics.
03 Mechanical, Transmission & Electrical Architecture
Done Specification Item Recommended Checkpoints & Criteria Buyer Project Input
Frame & Shaft Structure Confirm solid shaft steel grade (e.g. 45# carbon steel or 40Cr), shaft diameter adequacy for profile depth, and side-plate thickness.
Tooling Material & Heat Treatment Specify roller material: e.g. 45# steel with hard chrome plating, GCr15 bearing steel, or Cr12MoV vacuum heat-treated dies.
Drive Transmission Type Heavy chain drive with guide sprockets vs. independent split gearbox transmission with universal joint shafts for heavy sections.
Destination Grid Voltage & Frequency State local workshop voltage (e.g. 220V, 380V, 415V, 440V, 480V) and frequency (50Hz vs 60Hz). CE motor attestation available.
Control System & Language Touchscreen HMI with English user interface, PLC brand preference, emergency stop placements, and manual/auto jog control.
04 Inspection, Pre-Shipment Trials & Ocean Logistics
Done Specification Item Recommended Checkpoints & Criteria Buyer Project Input
Workshop Trial Coil Confirm whether buyer ships representative coil stock to the factory or workshop sources equivalent coil locally for trial runs.
Factory Acceptance (FAT) Video Agree on multi-angle trial recording: full forming sequence, cutting accuracy, sample dimension measurement, and control test.
Anti-Rust & Moisture Protection Unpainted shafts and tooling oiled with anti-rust compound, plastic shrink wrap, wooden blocking, and steel wire container lashing.
Spare Parts & Wear Items Clarify spare components included: proximity switches, solenoid valves, hydraulic seals, and spare cut-off blade set.
