New Control System Makes Operating Portable Rollformers Easier

By Evelyn Witterholt, RCS Reporter. 

Read on to learn about the features of this new, user-friendly control system for your portable rollformers. 

If you have a metal roofing business, you know just how important portable rollforming machines are. If you are on the market for a roof panel machine, New Tech Machinery has just the thing. Their SSQ II™ MultiPro Roof Panel Machine has a new UNIQ® Automatic Control System that makes the rollforming process more efficient and user-friendly. 

Features 

The UNIQ Automatic Control System offers both automatic and manual operation modes for your portable rollforming machine. It also has various safety functions that keep operators safe without compromising the machine’s functionality. 

One of the upgraded features of the control system is its touchscreen. The 7-inch screen has lockable metal covers, troubleshooting screens, brightness adjusters, controller settings, length calibration and more.  

There is also the option to use the machine manually with its push-button control panel. If the touchscreen goes down, you can still use the rollforming machine with the push buttons, such as when the machine is in maintenance mode. 

Benefits 

The UNIQ Automatic Control System was built with user safety as a high priority. It prevents operation of the machine when covers and guards are not in place. There are two red emergency stop buttons that are easy to access at both ends of the machine.  

A disconnect switch is located by the controller that has lockout/tagout capabilities. These functions are important for operator safety as they prevent the machine from turning on accidentally when it is not needed, such as when maintenance is being done.  

The control system touchscreen allows you to program desired panel lengths, which saves time spent on setting up a limit switch. This function makes it easier for you to perform jobs with varying panel lengths by using automated processes. 

Overall, the UNIQ Automatic Control System makes the rollforming machine process easy and safe for any metal roofing job. With its enhanced features that automate the rollforming process, you can work more efficiently on projects without compromising user safety.
