When it comes to metal roofing that combines elegance with performance, glazed steel tiles are an increasingly popular choice in both residential and commercial architecture. Designed to replicate the look of ceramic tiles while offering the strength and durability of metal, glazed tiles require a production solution that ensures both precision and beauty.
Enter the Zhongtuo Glazed Tile Roll Forming Machine—a robust and reliable production line engineered to manufacture high-quality glazed steel tiles with remarkable consistency and minimal manual intervention.
High-Precision Forming for Durable, Aesthetic Roof Tiles
This roll forming machine is tailored for producing glazed roofing tiles that are not only structurally sound but also visually appealing. The system is built with 16 forming stations, using hardened 45# chrome-plated steel rollers (with HRC56 hardness), mounted on 75mm solid shafts. This configuration ensures long-term performance, precise forming, and excellent resistance to wear.
With a feeding width of 1250mm and the capacity to handle steel coil thicknesses ranging from 0.3mm to 0.8mm, the machine accommodates a wide range of pre-painted and color-coated steel materials. This flexibility makes it ideal for manufacturers serving diverse regional markets and varying architectural styles.
Superior Cutting Technology for Flawless Output
One of the core features of the Zhongtuo machine is its 3D high-speed cutting system, powered by a CR12 chrome-plated cutter. This ensures clean, burr-free cuts that do not compromise the tile’s shape or structure. By eliminating deformation during cutting, the machine guarantees a smooth and polished final product, ready for immediate use or packaging.
The inclusion of a guide pillar forming structure paired with a chain-driven transmission system adds to the machine’s stability. These mechanical design elements help maintain uniform motion throughout the production cycle, further enhancing the quality of each glazed tile produced.
Boost Productivity While Reducing Labor Costs
In a competitive roofing market, automation is key to maintaining profit margins and ensuring timely delivery. The Zhongtuo Glazed Tile Roll Forming Machine operates at speeds of 6 to 8 meters per minute, offering a strong balance between throughput and product accuracy.
This high level of automation helps reduce reliance on skilled manual labor. Once set up, the system runs continuously with minimal operator supervision, enabling manufacturers to scale up production efficiently. The reduction in manual handling also decreases the likelihood of human error, which contributes to lower rejection rates and more consistent output quality.
Perfect for a Wide Range of Roofing Projects
The glazed tiles produced by this machine are ideal for use in:
Luxury villas and high-end residential homes
Pavilions and garden structures
Religious and cultural buildings
Commercial rooftops seeking aesthetic appeal
Their distinctive look—resembling traditional clay tiles—combined with the resilience of coated steel, makes these tiles suitable for projects that prioritize both style and strength. The machine can also be customized to produce different tile profiles, making it easier for manufacturers to adapt to regional preferences or evolving market demands.
Customization Options to Meet Market Demands
Zhongtuo understands that one size rarely fits all in the roofing industry. That’s why this glazed tile roll forming system can be tailored to produce various tile shapes, wave heights, and cover widths, based on client specifications. Optional features such as decoilers, hydraulic embossing units, or stackers can be added to match your exact production requirements.
Whether you need a basic entry-level line or a fully automated high-speed system, Zhongtuo can provide a solution that aligns with your capacity, budget, and long-term production goals.
