External Truck Body Panels Roll Forming Machine: Fully Automatic
Batch Production for Truck Side Panels
If you’re seeking a high-efficiency solution to mass-produce truck
body side panels, our External Truck Body Panels Roll Forming Machine delivers full automation—from raw material feeding to finished
panel collection. With flexible welding options and precise
processing, it ensures consistent quality for truck body
components, tailored to industrial production needs.
Compatible Raw Materials: Stable Input for Reliable Production
The machine is optimized to handle steel coils that meet standard
truck body panel requirements, ensuring smooth material feeding and
forming:
- Steel Coil Dimensions: Inner diameter of φ508mm; maximum outer diameter of φ1500mm
(accommodates common coil sizes in the industry).
- Coil Weight: Maximum 10t (reduces frequency of coil replacement, improving
continuous production efficiency).
- Steel Plate Thickness: 1.5 ~ 2.5mm (note: thin plates have higher strength, thick plates
have lower strength—adaptable to different panel rigidity needs).
- Material Type: Q235 steel (a widely used structural steel with good ductility
and weldability, ideal for truck body panels).
Full-Automatic Working Flow: Streamlined from Start to Finish
The machine follows a systematic, uninterrupted workflow to
minimize manual intervention and boost production speed. Each step
is designed to ensure precision and consistency:
- Automatic Feeding: Unwinds steel coils via an automatic decoiler, ensuring stable
material output.
- Metal Embossing: Adds decorative or structural embossing to the steel plate (per
design requirements) for enhanced panel performance or aesthetics.
- Pit Looper Storage: Temporarily stores processed material to buffer between
production stages, preventing bottlenecks.
- Servo Feeding + Hydraulic Punching & Notching: Uses servo control for accurate feeding, while hydraulic systems
punch holes and cut notches—critical for panel assembly.
- Secondary Pit Looper Storage: Provides another buffer before main forming, maintaining steady
material flow.
- Main Rolling Forming: Shapes the steel plate into truck side panel profiles via a
dedicated molding frame and gearbox system.
- Tracking Roller Welding: Performs on-line welding (rotary or laser, optional) to secure
panel structures.
- Shaping: Refines the formed panel to ensure dimensional accuracy and
smooth edges.
- Servo Tracking Hydraulic Punching & Cutting: Trims the finished panel to exact lengths using servo-controlled
hydraulic cutting.
- Receiving Table: Collects finished panels, ready for subsequent assembly or
packaging.

High-Performance Online Roll Spot Welder: Secure, Consistent Welds
The machine’s 2 sets of online roll spot welders are a highlight,
designed to meet strict truck panel welding standards:
- On-Line Tracking Welding: High-power roll welders enable automatic tracking welding,
boosting weld quality and operational stability. Maximum welding
speed reaches 6m/min, matching production line throughput.
- PLC-Controlled Precision: All welding actions are PLC-regulated; the welding control box
locks key parameters (welding current, speed) and interlocks with
the entire line’s electric system—preventing errors.
- Superior Weld Quality: Welds are firm and reliable, with no obvious indentations, false
welds, or burn marks. Post-welding, the joint fits seamlessly with
the panel’s lap edge, meeting truck body use requirements.
- Fixed Weld Spacing: Consistent 100mm distance between two welding points, ensuring
uniform structural strength across the panel.
