Modern wheel straightening machines are equipped with advanced technology that allows for precision and efficiency in repairs. Typically, the process begins with the technician inspecting the wheel for any visible damage. Once the assessment is complete, the wheel is mounted onto the machine, where it is rotated and analyzed for irregularities.
The roll forming process begins with unwinding a metal coil, which is then fed into the forming section of the machine. As the strip moves through the series of rollers, it undergoes deformation, gradually taking on the desired shape. Advanced roll forming machines may incorporate additional features, such as hydraulic systems for managing pressure and ensuring smooth operation. Once the profiling is complete, the formed strip is usually cut to length using automated shears, resulting in a finished product ready for shipment or further processing.
