Fully Automated Upright Roll Forming Machine For Steel Uprights With Consistent Welding

Fully Automated Welding Machine For Steel Uprights With Consistent Welding Quality And Labor-Saving Features

These introductions refer only to the production line and configuration shown in the main image. Each machine is custom-built. Metalign welcomes your inquiry and provides the right production line—forming metal into profiles aligned to your needs.

1. Production Line Overview

• This automated production line is tailored for industrial rack manufacturers requiring high-volume, precision upright production. Ideal for clients in warehousing, logistics, and storage industries, it offers seamless integration, reduced labor cost, and consistent welding accuracy for base plates on shelf uprights.

2. Profile Description

• This profile is a cold-formed steel upright with base plates welded on both ends. Made from galvanized steel, 1.5–2.5mm thick, it features pre-punched holes for adjustable shelving. Commonly used in high-strength industrial shelving systems, it offers durability, modularity, and compatibility with shuttle and pallet racking structures.

3. Production Process

• Rack Upright Discharge Table → Magnetic Robotic Arm → Laser Welding → Finished Rack Upright with Base Plates
• The production process begins with automatic feeding of completed uprights via a powered discharge table. Dual magnetic robotic arms pick, rotate, and position the uprights for precise base plate welding. A laser welding station with pneumatic fixtures ensures tight alignment, fast operation, and high weld consistency, forming a closed-loop automated unit.

4. Key Focus

• Labor Saving, Productivity Boost:Traditional manual flipping and welding require 2–3 operators. This automated line needs only one supervisor, increasing productivity by 2–3 times.
• Consistent Welding Quality:Robotic arms, automatic positioning, and standardized welding processes significantly reduce issues like hand instability, misalignment, or weak welds.
• Laser Welding Technology:Delivers high-strength, clean, and eco-friendly welds—ideal for export-oriented and premium-grade applications.
• Dual-End Welding Operation:Simultaneous processing at both ends dramatically enhances output capacity, making it the core of your high-volume efficiency strategy.
• Fully Automated Robotic Handling:Minimizes manual labor, ensures stable operation rhythm, and reduces the risk of workplace injuries.
• High Scalability:Easily integrates with existing upright roll forming lines and offers flexibility for future production upgrades.

5. Customization Options

• This machine supports full customization for different upright lengths, hole patterns, and base plate dimensions. Programming interfaces allow flexible adaptation to diverse upright profiles used in shuttle racks, push-back systems, and high-load shelf structures. Magnetic gripping force, welding arm travel, and clamping molds can all be tailored for non-standard upright shapes or complex plate designs.
