Operation steps
Manual 3 T decoiler
Manual 3 T decoiler
Narrower strip than main panels is common. Film width and film peel on PPGI.
Hang the arc specification board
Hang the arc specification board
Span / radius / height readable. Task requires same geometry as the customer’s previous ridge—board beats verbal pitch claims.
Form on mid-plate chain host
Form on mid-plate chain host
Wide shot of mid-plate chain with yellow guard—architecture differs from guide-pillar slide hosts. Navy + yellow bake paint matches the sheet.
Transverse rib / press detail
Transverse rib / press detail
If the recipe adds ribs along the arc, show the detail fire and the coating face after. Scuffs fail even when the arc is correct.
Hydraulic cut — 2 m acceptance
Hydraulic cut — 2 m acceptance
Cut clean ends for overlaps. Gate with the required 2 m inspection lengths before raising speed.

Seat caps on a sample panel bay. Interleave faces for coated goods—short parts dent in careless crates.
What's included
This line
Ridge-cap roll forming: arc (or named) specification, progressive stands, hydraulic cut, mate to roof panel family. This build: mid-plate chain host + arc CAD + transverse-rib samples.
Standard build
Standalone hydraulic ridge benders, main trapezoid / glazed-tile hosts, standing-seam panel formers, and foam closures are separate entries—each has its own page.
Key details
Note 1
This build is a full roll-forming host with hydraulic shear, distinct from a press-only ridge bender—show it as a complete line.
Note 2
When a contract bundles glazed tile, the ridge geometry stays on this page and tile arc forming stays on its own page.
