Customizable Straightening Machines
Overview of our customizable straightening machines
A straightening machine is an industrial machine used to straighten metallic workpieces that have been deformed through rolling processes or other machining methods and return them to their original shape. These machines are employed in metalworking to improve the quality and accuracy of metal plates, sheets, or profiles.
The straightening machine operates by passing the workpiece to be straightened between several rollers or straightening rollers. These straightening rollers are positioned and configured in such a way that they correct the deformations of the material. Depending on the specific requirements and the degree of deformation, a straightening machine may feature different numbers of straightening rollers and various configurations.
G+K offers the widest range of straightening machines on the market.
G+K has one of the most extensive programs for decoilers, straightening machines, and roll feeders in Germany. For this reason, G+K has developed into a partner of the steel processing industry in general and the automotive industry in particular. Individual requirements for the straightening machines can be realized just as easily as the provision of straightening machines for standard tasks.
Customizable parameters of our straightening machines
Material type and thickness
Straightening machines can be designed for various materials such as steel, aluminum, copper, etc. The maximum thickness of the material to be straightened is an important parameter.
Bandwidth
This refers to the maximum width of the strip or sheet to be straightened.
Number of reels
The number and arrangement of the straightening rollers influence the efficiency and accuracy of the straightening process.
Roller diameter
The diameter of the leveling rollers is a crucial factor in the machine's ability to straighten the material precisely.
Directional force
The straightening force indicates the power with which the rollers can act on the material. This is especially important for straightening thicker materials.
Roller arrangement
There are various types of straightening machines, including 2-high-1, 4-high-2, etc. The arrangement of the straightening rollers affects the machine's performance.
Cruise control
The ability to adjust the speed of the straightening machine is important to handle different requirements and materials.
Automation
Modern straightening machines often offer automated functions for material transport, adjustment of straightening parameters, and other processes.
Accuracy and repeatability
The accuracy of the straightening machine is crucial, especially when it comes to high-precision applications. Repeatability of results is also important.
Energy consumption
The energy consumption of the machine can be an important factor, particularly with regard to operating costs and environmental impact.
Ease of maintenance
The accessibility of the various components for maintenance purposes can affect the overall efficiency of the machine.
