Portable Rollforming System • MetalForming •

Quadro Plus combines the best aspects of German engineering and American market savvy. The engineers at Schlebach initially designed a top-quality, single-profile rollformer, but the folks at MetalForming Inc. knew that to meet the requirements of American metal-roofing contractors, they needed a machine that could produce different roof-panel profiles quickly and efficiently, in a factory or out on a jobsite. The result was Quadro Plus, the only machine of its kind in the world with instant changeover from one profile to another by simply rotating tooling cassettes.

RAS Systems has introduced a folding innovation for roofing and architectural profiles. The new XL-Center has a folding length of 126 inches and folds 16-gauge mild steel. By being able to fold a flange up and down, this new model reduces material handling to a minimum with its hands-free operation. Simply load the part, step on the foot pedal and watch the machine fold a perfectly accurate part. Tapering is a standard feature. Also, 300 degrees of free space allows for maximum part-design flexibility. The five servo-regulated motors offer unparalleled speed, and the new PC control makes programming easier than ever.
