Automatic hydraulic punching and cutting – eliminates secondary operations
Hydraulic expansion, 7.5 kW motor, max coil weight 8 tons
Feeding & Leveling
9‑roller leveler with servo feeder
Punching System
Hydraulic pre‑punch for slots and shear lugs
Roll Forming Stations
22 stations, hardened GCr15 steel rollers
Main Drive
22 kW gear motor with chain transmission
Cutting Unit
Hydraulic flying cutoff with die change system
PLC Control
Siemens system with touchscreen (UL certified)
Runout Table
12‑meter powered stacker with automatic counting
The machine produces standard steel deck profiles including 2‑inch composite deck, 3‑inch deep deck, and cellular deck panels from 0.75mm to 1.5mm galvanized or structural steel coil.
Key Advantages of Our Decking Roll Forming Machine for the US Market
If you are an American contractor, steel deck distributor, or metal building component manufacturer, here is why our decking floor roll forming machine fits your needs:
1. Meets US Building Codes
Our machines can produce ASTM A653 and A792 compliant decking profiles. We also customize embossing patterns for shear resistance as required by American concrete design standards.
2. Lower Shipping Cost than European Machines
Compared to Italian or German decking roll formers, our machine price + ocean freight is typically 35–45% lower, with comparable quality and faster lead time (45–60 days vs. 20+ weeks).
3. Easy to Install and Operate
We provide:
English manuals with detailed diagrams
Step‑by‑step installation videos
Remote online training (TeamViewer / WhatsApp video)
Optional on‑site technician (visa and travel arranged)
4. Spare Parts Readily Available
We stock common spare rollers, hydraulic seals, limit switches, and cutting dies for fast air freight to the USA (typically 5–7 days via DHL/FedEx).
What Our US Customers Typically Produce with This Machine
We will reply within 24 hours with drawings, video of a similar machine running, and reference list of American customers.
FAQ
1. What is a decking floor roll forming machine used for in construction?
Answer: A decking floor roll forming machine is used to produce steel floor decking panels that serve as permanent formwork for concrete slabs in steel-structured buildings. These panels replace traditional wooden formwork, reduce labor costs, speed up construction, and also act as tensile reinforcement for the concrete. Common applications include high-rise buildings, parking garages, industrial mezzanines, and commercial complexes.
2. What are the most popular decking profiles (e.g., 2W, 3W, re-entrant)?
Answer: The most widely used decking profiles include:
2W (two ribs) and 3W (three ribs) – High stiffness, ideal for medium to long spans.
Re-entrant (deep deck) – Allows concrete to lock mechanically with steel.
Doppler (cellular) – Used where electrical conduits or services run through the slab.
B deck / N deck – Common in North American markets. A quality decking floor roll forming machine can switch between rib depths (typically 35–76mm) and widths (600–900mm) with quick-change tooling.
3. How long can a steel decking span without additional shoring?
Answer: Span capacity depends on profile depth, steel gauge, and concrete load. Typical unshored spans for decking produced by a standard roll forming machine are:
0.75mm (22ga) deck: up to 2.5–3.0 meters
1.0mm (20ga) deck: up to 3.5–4.0 meters
1.2mm (18ga) deck: up to 4.5–5.0 meters Deep profiles (over 70mm rib height) with thicker steel can exceed 5 meters. Your machine can be customized to produce profiles that meet local building codes and span requirements.
4. How to choose the right decking roll forming machine for my project volume?
Answer: Key factors to consider:
Monthly output needed – Low volume (200–500 tons): manual or semi-automatic. High volume (1000+ tons): servo + automatic stacking.
Profile type – Check local construction standards (e.g., AS/NZS, BS, AISI) before ordering dies.
Steel gauge range – Most machines handle 0.5–1.5mm. Thicker decking requires heavier frames and stronger motors.
Length accuracy – For composite slab construction, length tolerance ≤ ±2mm is essential. Look for servo-driven measuring systems.
