W12 SERIES
4-Roll Plate Rolling Machine
The four-roll plate rolling machine uses an upper roll, lower roll and two side rolls to control the plate during forming. The plate is clamped between the upper and lower rolls while the side rolls are used for pre-bending and rolling. This structure provides controlled plate handling throughout the forming process and is suitable for cylindrical, curved and selected conical workpieces. Wesend configures each machine according to material, plate thickness, working width, minimum rolling diameter, workpiece shape and production requirements.

Common Questions
What information is required for machine selection?
Please provide material, maximum plate thickness, plate width, minimum rolling diameter and, if available, the finished workpiece drawing.
Can a four-roll machine perform pre-bending?
Yes. The four-roll structure supports plate clamping, plate-end pre-bending and rolling within the forming process.
Can the machine roll conical workpieces?
Cone rolling solutions can be configured for suitable workpieces. Please provide the cone dimensions and material information for selection.
Can you provide CNC control?
Yes. Different control configurations can be selected according to production and operating requirements.
Can the machine be customized?
Yes. Wesend can configure the machine according to material, plate dimensions, forming diameter, workpiece geometry and production requirements.
