Ridge Cap Roll Forming Machine
Ridge Cap Roll Forming Machine
The Ridge Cap Roll Forming Machine is designed to cover tile sheet joints with durable ridge caps and is usually paired with a mini-size decoiler for seamless sheet feeding, ensuring accurate shaping, high strength, and long-lasting roofing protection.
At Alpha Engineering Equipments, we design and manufacture ridge cap roll forming machines with the right precision, durability, and ease of operation to meet diverse roofing industry needs.
What is a Ridge Cap Roll Forming Machine?
Ridge capping is a critical element of any roofing structure, especially for tile roofs. The ridge cap roll forming machine shapes metal sheets into ridge caps that perfectly fit the roof profile, enhancing both the aesthetic appeal and the structural integrity of the building.
A typical ridge cap roll forming machine includes:
- Roll forming station – Shapes flat sheets into the desired ridge profile.
- Hydraulic cutting station – Cuts the ridge caps to the required lengths with high precision.
- PLC-based control system – User-friendly interface for easy operation and improved safety.
- Custom tooling – Rolls and cutting frames tailored to match your ridge cap dimensions.
This machine is usually paired with a decoiler machine to feed sheets into the roll former seamlessly.
