Wind Towers, pressure vessels, oil platforms, nuclear energy… all require the rolling of thick steel plates. With the ever-increasing price of steel, rolling thick plates with precision, speed, reliability and maximum automation is of the utmost importance for manufacturers to stay in business and therefore they require the ultimate technology in plate rolling machines.
For many years, Faccin has been a reference point for rolling equipment needed to roll thick plates and throughout many years of experience, it has developed together with its customers a specific expertise and has defined the ideal plate rolls for thick plate rolling.
FACCIN PLATE ROLLING MACHINES TICK ALL THE BOXES
The rolling machine must work non-stop 24/7 and must be highly reliable, assuring minimum downtime. The oversized structure and components and the efficient cooling system, together with the centralized lubrication system make the Faccin series the most steadfast rolling machines on the market. The company is widely known for the quality of its products, continuously supplying machines that perform under heavy loads.
Reliability must go hand-in-hand with speed and accuracy and the job must be stress-free for the operator. The company has perfected its PGS-Ultra CNC capable of controlling automatically, not only the machine but also the handling system.
AUTOMATION SYSTEM
Rolling hundreds of plates can be accomplished with the company’s automation system which combines its powerful super-sized plate rolling machine with key components including a strong side support with clamps that permit the correct alignment of the plate before tack-welding as well as a sturdy top support for covering the full width of the plate and a totally motorized feeding table with alignment device to quickly prepare the plate for rolling. All these accessories are controlled by a highly advanced fully programmable CNC designed to automate the most complex rolling projects.
TIME SAVING
This all adds up to time saving in all the subsequent steps of assembly and welding. The company’s machines with their mammoth forces can perform top quality rolling and pre-bending of the plates supplying perfect rolled plates to the welding stations. The machines’ geometry and controls are planned to reach the tightest tolerances and to minimize the re-rolling percentage that is a common challenge of the steel structure manufacturers.
