1. Scope
This is an aftersales commissioning / length-mismatch guide for roofing tile / panel lines, documented on a double-layer machine field case. It is a knowledge article under the roof-panel leaf for retrieval — not a trapezoid / glazed-tile / corrugated host quotation.
Do not invent main-motor kW, forming-speed m/min, stand counts, or shaft diameters on this page. Host ratings stay on the named machine encyclopedia entries.
2. Commissioning checklist (documented order)
- Complete wiring
- Start the hydraulic pump
- Check pump motor rotation — clockwise is correct; reverse by swapping two supply leads if needed
- Check control-cabinet buttons
- In manual mode, raise the shear to the upper limit
- Manual feed / exit / shear once; only then enter automatic commissioning
Skipping pump-rotation or shear-limit checks before auto mode is a common source of first-sheet length complaints.
3. Length / pulse notes (field experience — not factory tolerances)
| Topic | Documented note |
|---|---|
| Double-layer “extra cut” habit | Corrugated often about +100; trapezoid often about +190 per cut — unit not hard-locked in source; treat as site compensation experience, confirm per contract / debug session |
| Order length for debug | Prefer longer (about 3 m better for accuracy); material-saving trial about 300 mm; quantity about 3 sheets |
| Blade raise retract | After each cut, strip may retract about 3 mm as the blade rises — re-align strip to the shear before re-cutting so the counter stays accurate |
| Pulse coefficient | Run about 3 sheets; record instantaneous cut length (order) vs measured length; estimate pulse coeff per maker procedure — formula not published; do not invent |
| Compensation | If actual consistently about +10 vs set → enter that value under compensate+; if about −10 → compensate− |
| Correct setup check | Three consecutive sheets: set length, instantaneous cut length, and measured length all agree |
4. Industry length-error context
Public roll-forming troubleshooting guides emphasize encoder measuring-wheel contact, pulse scaling (length coefficient), shear delay, and mounting rigidity. Use that as general orientation when diagnosing variance. For this aftersales knowledge ID, follow the site electrical manual and the checklist above — do not replace the documented field steps with a generic blog formula.
5. Blocked / not published
- Main motor kW / forming m/min / stands — blocked on this aftersales page
- Pulse formula coefficients table — source mentions a formula but does not expand it
- “+100 / +190” as universal factory tolerance — forbidden; site / profile dependent
6. Buyer FAQ
Is “+100 / +190” a universal factory tolerance?
No. The source forbids treating those figures as the unique truth for every machine and profile.
Can we publish host power or speed from this article?
No. This is aftersales commissioning knowledge (evidence C). Open the named roof / tile host page for equipment ratings.
Why re-align the strip after every cut?
Because the documented case notes about 3 mm retract when the blade rises — without re-alignment the counter drifts.
What if length error is random, not a steady +10 / −10?
Check encoder wheel contact, mount rigidity, and shear alignment first. Compensation entries fix consistent bias, not variance from slip.
Aftersales guide only. No host power or speed invention. Price and lead time are out of scope. Evidence tier: C.
