General Manager Damien Sauni needed a partner to build a fully custom Rollforming machine — one that could manage the high output of a diverse product offering, with minimal operator intervention. After a long relationship of 40 years, Hayes International was, in Damien’s eyes, the best partner for the job.
Dual Level Rollformer Standard Components Details
- Two sets of tooling with staggered pedestals allow for multiple profiles in the same footprint as a Hayes Single Level Rollformer.
- Each toolset is driven independently via a dedicated electric gear motor.
- Dual level adjustable infeed guides to suit coil discrepancies and control under/overlap length; positioned via Siko type screw adjustment.
- Dual level built-in lubrication system with felt wick applicator that applies lubricant to both sides of the sheet.
- Manual pull-across slitter or a powered slitter with D2 hardened steel knives to reduce waste material.
- Fabricated steel chassis in segments for easy handling, painted with a lacquer finish.
- Reference marking and leveling feet for ease of alignment.
- Pedestals are a heavy-duty welded steel design with all working surfaces precision machined. Pedestals are height offset to allow one profile to run above another.
- Each pedestal houses heavy-duty self-aligning bearings with tooling shaft locking collars.
- Multiple tooling options are available depending on the profile spec and the line speed required. All options are precision CNC machined in house. These include:
- Solid K1045 steel tooling rolls with a hard chrome finish.
- Segmented D2 Steel through hardened to KC60 grade.
- Driven by dedicated VFD Electric motors mounted inside the chassis with each toolset individually driven.
- Power transmitted via heavy duty chain and sprocket.
- Secured via Bonfix style couplings.
- Each bottom roll of tooling is driven, with the first stations coupled via spur gear to aid traction.
- Guarding covers tooling rolls and transmission.
- Welded steel and mesh construction painted with lacquer finish.
- 2 Configurations available: 'Lift up' guards that open upwards with the aid of gas struts, or interlocking tunnel guards that open via sliding on track and rail system.
- All guards are equipped with interlocking safety switches integrated into the safety system.
- Polycarbonate guarding option available.
- Heavy-duty twin pillar post-cut guillotine with dual-level operation.
- Hydraulically operated via a dedicated power pack housed inside the chassis.
- Replaceable D2 through-hardened steel blades precision that are ground and sharpened.
- Dedicated operator's console controlled via a PC and Hayes SmartCut multi-batching control.
- Fully instrumented controls capable of operating in manual or automatic modes.
- Data download and order entry facilities, fault-finding capability and operating safety system.
- Can be configured to run select 3rd party control systems.
- ERP integration capability (subject to controller type) with production reporting, scrap monitoring, etc.
