SLIP ROLL OVERVIEW
The slip roll section can be used to roll up to
20ga. (0.912mm) x 52” (1321mm) wide mild steel.
It consists of 3 hardened rolls. The rear roll is adjustable to control the radius of the piece part
as it is being formed. The closer the rear roll is brought to the front upper roll, the tighter the
radius. The two front gear driven rolls pinch the material and pull it against the rear roll, forcing it
up towards the front upper roll. The top front roll has two adjustment knobs, one on each end of
the machine, to control the upper and lower roller spacing for different material thicknesses.
When removing the formed piece part, the top front roll can be slipped out.

When the slip roll section is not
being used, the operator can cover
the rolling mechanism with the
formed steel pivoting cover / guard.

The rear roll can be adjusted to a
raised or tilted position on one end
to roll cones or left flat to roll
cylinders or arcs.

Located on the end of the upper and
lower rolls are three wire or forming
grooves. These can be used for
forming small diameter tubing or
wire into rings or curved shapes.

To prolong the life of the rolls, always keep them clean and well lubricated. Remove burrs
from the edges of any sheet metal being processed through the rolls.

DO NOT exceed the rated capacity on this slip roll. It has been tested at the factory to roll
20ga. (0.912mm) x 52” (1321mm) wide mild steel.

Because material springback varies with the kind of material being formed, only by test
forming several pieces can the correct adjustments be made.
CAUTION:
When handling large piece parts, you may require assistance
in handling the piece as it exits the rolls. Failure to adequately support the piece part
may result in the piece falling and causing bodily injury.
