Production Line
The rack shelf panel roll forming machine is designed for efficient and continuous production of metal shelf panels with punching and bending functions integrated in one automated roll forming production line, ensuring stable profiles, flexible width adjustment, and high production efficiency for storage rack manufacturers.
We can customize the roll forming machine according to different rack shelf panel widths, hole layouts, edge designs, and loading capacity requirements.
This roll forming machine is ideal for warehouse rack manufacturers, shelving system suppliers, and metal storage solution companies requiring automatic high-volume shelf panel production.

Profile Information
Rack shelf panels are widely used in warehouse storage systems, supermarket shelving, industrial racks, and logistics equipment. The profile usually features reinforced ribs, punched holes, and folded edges for higher loading strength and assembly convenience.
Most rack shelf panels are produced from galvanized steel, cold rolled steel, or pre-painted steel by a fully automatic roll forming production line for stable dimensions and efficient mass production.
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 |
Hydraulic punching unit
The hydraulic punching unit automatically punches installation holes, reinforcement holes, and connection slots before roll forming.
It offers accurate positioning, stable hydraulic operation, fast punching speed, and high automation for continuous rack shelf panel production.
Roll Forming Machine
The roll forming machine gradually forms both sides of the rack shelf panel through multiple roller stations.
Its wall-panel frame and chain transmission structure provide stable operation, convenient maintenance, and reliable forming performance. The machine can also produce different shelf panel widths through adjustable forming settings.
| Speed | 20m/min | Forming Station | 18 Stands |
| Motor Power | 7.5Kw | Shaft Diameter | 76mm, solid |
| Driving System | Chain | Roller Material | Gcr15,HRC58-62° |
| Frame Structure | Wall panel | Shaft Material | 40Cr heat treatment |
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.
