Profile Information
Standing seam is a concealed fastener roofing profile used for waterproof roofing systems, featuring raised vertical seams and widely used in Europe, America, and Middle East markets.
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 |
Roll Forming Machine
Roll forming machine adopts wall panel frame with chain driving system to ensure stable transmission and precise forming.
It gradually forms steel strip into standing seam profile with high accuracy. Optional servo adjustment and reinforced rollers are available for higher durability and complex profiles.
| 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 |
Cutting Device
Hydraulic cut is stop-type system, ensuring the roll forming line pauses during cutting to maintain profile stability.
Standard speed 15–18 m/min meets most production needs, and higher speed solutions are available upon request.
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.
Optional: Electric Seaming Machine
An electrical seamer is a powered tool used to form single or double locks on standing seam panels. It travels along panel seams—manually guided or self-propelled—using roller stations to ensure consistent, tight seams.
Suitable for various profiles, it improves efficiency, accuracy, and installation quality in roofing projects.

Frequently Asked Question
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.
Yes. After communicating with you about your requirements, we can first provide a quotation and a similar solution based on a profile that is close to your needs for your reference. Once the exact drawing becomes available, we can update the quotation and configuration accordingly at any time.
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.
