II. Core Advantages and Selling Points

(1) Multi-profile Capability and Flexible Production
This is the core advantage distinguishing this equipment from conventional production lines limited to a single specification.
Traditional glazed tile equipment is typically customized for a single tile profile; switching products requires replacing the entire mold set, which is time-consuming and costly. This equipment utilizes a modular mold design and adjustable forming technology, allowing a single machine to produce various tile specifications, such as the 800, 828, 840, 860, and 1050 models. Certain models can also switch to producing resin-imitation tiles to meet the decorative requirements of diverse projects. Specification changes are accomplished via a quick mold-change system; no specialized technicians are required, as standard operators can perform the switch, significantly enhancing equipment utilization rates.

(2) Cast-Steel Arch Frame + Gearbox Drive: High Rigidity, Precision, and Durability
The main forming unit features a cast-steel arch frame structure, utilizing 19 pairs of "110" model arch frames. These cast frames undergo tempering treatment, offering superior rigidity and deformation resistance, which ensures stable, high-intensity operation over long periods.
The drive system employs a gearbox configuration, utilizing 18 units of the "140" model. Compared to chain drives, gearbox drives offer significant advantages, including smooth operation, low noise, high precision, and a long service life. The gearboxes are sourced from the reliable "Maxter" (Ningbo) brand. The transmission setup combines chain linkage with protective housing, ensuring both operational reliability and safety.

(3) High-Strength Frame, Precision Machined on Gantry Machining Centers
The frame assembly comprises the guiding mechanism and the main frame structure.
The main frame is constructed from 400×200 H-beams, with 25mm-thick steel plates welded onto the mounting surfaces; the assembly is then finished on a gantry machining center. This H-beam and thickened-plate design ensures exceptional rigidity and resistance to deformation. Machining in a single setup on a gantry machining center guarantees the parallelism and perpendicularity of all mounting surfaces, laying a solid foundation for the high-precision operation of the entire production line.

(4) Guided Infeed Rack for Precise Positioning
Guided Infeed Rack Structure: Lateral guide rollers (left and right) are installed at the main machine's infeed opening. During operation, the raw sheet material passes through these guides before entering the main machine, ensuring correct alignment with the roll-forming system. The guide position is adjustable via a manual screw mechanism; the left and right guides can be adjusted independently to accommodate sheets of varying widths.

(5) Film Laminating Device for Surface Finish Protection
This device is designed to enhance the forming quality of the sheet. A laminating rack is installed at the infeed guide section, consisting primarily of a film storage unit and a pressing unit.
Film Storage Unit: Comprises a mandrel and adjustable end plates. The film roll is mounted on the mandrel, with the end plates adjusted to secure it.
Pressing Unit: Consists of rubber rollers (approximately 90mm in diameter) positioned at the first forming station; both the upper and lower rollers are passive (driven by the movement of the sheet). As the sheet passes through the rotating rubber rollers, it is pulled forward while the film is smoothly applied to the steel surface. The rollers can be adjusted to the appropriate position via a screw mechanism to suit different sheet thicknesses.
The laminating device effectively prevents scratches and abrasion to the sheet's surface coating during roll forming and punching, ensuring the gloss and color integrity of the finished tile surface.

(6) 19-Station Precision Roll Forming for a Flawless, Flat Surface
