Built to simultaneously form profiles on both sides of a panel, these machines are a go-to solution for manufacturers who need high-quality, custom-formed sections across varying sheet widths.
How Duplex Roll Forming Machines Work
A standard Duplex Rollformer is constructed with one fixed head and one adjustable head, allowing it to accommodate panels with widths ranging from 200 mm to 1250 mm. This dual-head system makes it ideal for producing symmetrical profiles in a single pass — streamlining production and ensuring uniformity across every unit. Whether operating with manually or motor-driven adjustable heads, these machines offer a high degree of precision and ease of use.
Custom Built for Versatility and Production
Duplex rollforming equipment is designed with adaptability in mind. Each machine is custom-built to meet the specific needs of the client, including optional pre-punching, notching, or end bending stages. In fully automated setups, such as cold store panel lines, the machine can create complete panels from start to finish in lengths between 1 metre and 6 metres. Forming speeds and roll station configurations are matched to the application — most setups range between 8 to 16 roll stations.
Industries and Applications
This type of rollforming equipment is widely used across various industries where consistent, high-volume panel production is needed. These include:
Office furniture and shelving
Domestic appliances
Caravan manufacturing
Cold store panel production
Duplex Roll Formers offer a reliable, scalable solution where formed panels of variable widths are required for long-term manufacturing.
