- Container manufacturing: Used for producing side wall panels, door panels, and other components of sea or land containers. Containers are required to be sturdy, durable, and able to withstand various pressures during long-distance transportation.
- Special vehicle manufacturing: For vehicles that require special construction, such as refrigerated trucks, oil tankers, etc., the carriage plate forming machine can produce plates that meet specific requirements to meet the functional needs of the vehicle.
- Railway vehicle manufacturing: used to produce various sheet materials for train carriages, including internal partitions, external shells, etc., to ensure the structural strength and sealing performance of the carriages.
- Manufacturing of public transportation vehicles: such as buses, subway carriages, etc., which also require sturdy and lightweight carriage boards to ensure passenger safety and comfort.
- Military equipment manufacturing: Some countries may also use this type of equipment to manufacture protective panels for military vehicles or equipment, in order to enhance the vehicle’s protective capabilities.
The main functions of the carriage board forming machine
- Sheet metal forming: A series of rollers or molds are used to bend flat materials (such as steel plates, galvanized plates, color coated plates, etc.) into the desired shape, such as the side panels, top panels, and bottom panels of a carriage.
- Size customization: Able to produce boards of different thicknesses, widths, and heights according to customers’ different needs, to adapt to the manufacturing of different types of carriages or containers.
- Continuous production: Usually used as part of a production line to achieve uninterrupted production and improve production efficiency.
- Precision control: Ensure the dimensional accuracy of the formed sheet metal through a precise control system to avoid installation problems caused by dimensional deviations.
- Stress relief: During the forming process, scientific and reasonable roller design is used to help remove the internal stress of the metal sheet after forming, improving the stability and service life of the sheet.
- Welding integration: Some equipment integrates welding functions, which can complete the connection operation between plates while forming, further improving production efficiency.
- Automatic cutting: After forming, the sheet can be automatically cut according to the set length, ensuring that each sheet can accurately reach the predetermined size.
- Quality monitoring: Equipment is usually equipped with a quality monitoring system that can detect the forming status of the board in real time to ensure product quality.
- Easy to operate: Modern car panel forming machines usually have user-friendly interfaces, making it easy for operators to set parameters and monitor the production process.
