Profile Information
Rack box beam is a structural component widely used in pallet racking systems, designed in two main forms: one-piece box beam and CC box beam.
The one-piece type is roll-formed from a single steel strip into a closed rectangular section, while the CC type is formed by interlocking two C-shaped profiles. Both provide high load capacity, torsional rigidity, and stable storage performance.
How Does The Roll Forming Machine Work?
Machine Details
Steel Coil Decoiler
Steel coil decoiler is used to unwind metal coils smoothly for feeding into roll forming, cutting, or punching processes.
Manual decoiler is a basic and economical option, while motorized and hydraulic decoilers are also available for higher efficiency and automation:
| Power Type | Manual | Steel Coil Width | Max 1250mm |
| Loading Capacity | 5/7/10 Ton | Expanding Range | 460-50mm |
Leveler
The leveling unit removes coil stress and surface waviness before forming, ensuring stable feeding into the roll forming system.
It improves flatness accuracy, reduces internal stress, and supports consistent beam geometry. Optional heavy-duty or precision leveling rollers are available for different material thickness ranges.
Roll Forming Machine
The roll forming machine adopts a heavy-duty stand frame with chain transmission for stable power delivery.
It features automatic width adjustment for producing multiple box beam sizes without frequent roller change.
This design ensures high rigidity, precise forming accuracy, and efficient continuous production, suitable for industrial-scale rack beam manufacturing.
| Speed | 10-12m/min | Forming Station | 18 Stands |
| Motor Power | 7.5Kw | Shaft Diameter | 76mm, solid |
| Driving System | Chain | Roller Material | Gcr15,HRC58-62° |
| Frame Structure | Cast iron stand | Shaft Material | 40Cr heat treatment |
Flying Laser Welder
The flying laser welding system synchronizes with forming speed to continuously weld the beam seam.
It ensures strong structural integrity for closed box profiles, improving load performance and stability while maintaining high production speed without interruption.
Flying Saw Cut
The flying saw cutting system cuts the beam without stopping production, synchronizing with line speed for continuous output.
This minimizes deformation on closed box profiles and ensures clean cutting edges. High-speed synchronization improves efficiency, and customized cutting solutions are available for different production requirements.
Safety Designs
Chain covers are installed to protect operators and extend chain service life. Full-machine mesh covers (slidable) provide visibility with safety. Flip-type covers ensure convenient access with enhanced protection.
Safety signs are applied to continuously alert operators.
PLC Control Cabinet & Encoder
In a cold roll forming line, the encoder works with the PLC to provide real-time feedback on material position and speed, ensuring precise feed, synchronized forming, and accurate length control for cutting and punching.
Production speed, product length, and quantity can be set on the control cabinet. The display language can be customized according to customer requirements.
Other Customization Details
The machine comes standard with a blue main color and orange accents. Other colors can be customized free of charge.
The default metal nameplate is Goalon, which can also be customized at no additional cost.
Basic Services
Professional Packing
Machines are packed in plastic film and labeled for easy identification and assembly, and secured inside the container with steel cables.
Installation Guide
To help customers save both time and financial costs on machine installation and training, especially on on-site engineer service fees.
Based on the actual configuration of each machine, we customize the installation manual and operating manual. During the testing phase and before shipment, we record installation and operation videos for guidance.
The standard configuration operates at 15–20 m/min. Higher-end configurations can reach 30–40 m/min, and even higher speeds can be customized according to specific production requirements.
Lead times range from 30-50 days post-order, varying by customization level and supplier location. We typically require 45 days for standard machines.
Laser welding ensures deep penetration, stable seam strength, and consistent bonding for heavy-duty rack applications.
Yes. We are a professional manufacturer that produces both standard market profiles and customized profiles. We can also sign an agreement to ensure that your drawing will not be shared with other parties.
There is no need to worry. Our machines are designed for easy installation and operation.
Before shipment, we will finish the main assembly and testing in our factory. When the machine arrives, you only need to place it in position, connect the power supply, and it can start working.
We will also provide:
detailed installation and operation manuals
machine layout drawings
wiring diagrams
online technical support (video call / photos / videos)
If needed, we can also arrange an engineer to come to your factory to help with installation and training. Many of our customers complete installation smoothly with our online guidance.
30% deposit is paid before production, the balance paid after inspection confrmation, before shipment.
