Hat Section Roll Forming Machine

This hat section roll forming machine is customized compact cold forming equipment dedicated to manufacturing hat-shaped steel purlins, also known as hat profile steel. The finished hat section features symmetrical hat cross-section, light weight but high bending resistance, widely used as ceiling supporting keel, wall auxiliary purlin and light steel house inner frame for factory buildings, warehouses, villas and prefab houses.
It processes 0.4–1.2mm galvanized steel strips and color coated coils, integrating small manual uncoiler, continuous multi-pass roll forming and hydraulic fixed-length cutting. Compact overall size takes little workshop space, short production cycle and affordable cost, ideal for small and medium metal profile processing factories.

The machine base frame adopts light-duty channel steel integral welding structure, processed by stress relief annealing after welding to eliminate minor welding deformation, stable vibration-free low-speed forming operation.
All forming rollers are precision turned solid 45# carbon steel with surface quenched hard chrome plating, wear-resistant and anti-rust, no scratch or indentation on thin galvanized sheets. Multiple groups of progressive bending roller stations finish complete hat profile symmetrical bending in one feeding stroke, tiny forming spring-back ensures neat section size and smooth surface. Hat section width, height and lip length can be fully customized according to customer’s architectural drawing requirements.

Variable frequency chain stepless transmission realizes stable low-speed running, forming speed adjustable from 6–18 m/min. A simple manual uncoiler is matched at the feeding inlet to load steel coil, with small bilateral anti-offset baffles to prevent strip deviation waste.
Vertical compact hydraulic cutting unit at the tail is equipped with alloy quenched cutting blades suitable for thin galvanized and color steel strips. Cut ends are flat without burr or collapse deformation, finished hat section length tolerance ≤±1mm. Independent small hydraulic power unit provides stable cutting pressure with simple heat dissipation system.

Mini touch screen PLC control cabinet stores multiple groups of custom hat section parameter recipes, supporting one-click switching of different profile specifications. The control system realizes automatic length counting, fixed-length stop and fault self-checking functions. Only one single worker can complete full machine operation monitoring to reduce labor cost. Overload protection and emergency stop switch are equipped for basic operation safety.

This hat section roll forming machine is equipped with a supporting small manual coil uncoiler as standard. We support full customization of hat section size, strip width and machine voltage based on customer’s raw material parameters.
Each hat profile forming machine undergoes 48-hour continuous coil test before delivery to calibrate forming section precision and cutting stability to eliminate hidden quality problems. Complete spare forming rollers, cutting blades, hydraulic sealing parts and bilingual operation & maintenance manuals are provided as standard free accessories.
We provide a 1-year full machine comprehensive warranty covering all mechanical and electrical components. The delivery cycle is only 25–35 days after receiving customer’s advance deposit. Custom three-phase industrial voltage (380V/415V/220V) is available to fit different national power supply standards. Professional remote video installation and operation guidance service is provided for all overseas buyers.
