Product Overview
The Re-entrant & Open Web Floor Deck Machine is a highly versatile and customizable steel decking panel roll former, specifically engineered to manufacture advanced composite floor profiles. Designed to accommodate complex geometric shapes, this equipment produces both re-entrant (closed) and open web floor decks. These specialized profiles are critical in modern construction for maximizing concrete-steel composite action, enhancing fire resistance, and facilitating seamless utility routing.
Key Features & Advantages
- Dual-Profile Versatility: Engineered with adaptable tooling systems, this machine can be customized to produce both re-entrant profiles (which provide a flat soffit and superior concrete interlock) and open web profiles (which allow for easy routing of MEP systems). This flexibility allows manufacturers to cater to diverse architectural and engineering demands.
- Customizable OEM Configuration: Recognizing that composite floor systems require precise engineering, this roll former supports extensive OEM customization. Manufacturers can tailor the rib geometry, embossment patterns, and punching layouts to meet specific structural load requirements and regional building codes.
- Precision Roll Forming Technology: Utilizes high-grade, heat-treated roller stations and precision-ground shafts to ensure accurate bending of complex profile shapes. The machine guarantees consistent dimensional tolerances, smooth surface finishes, and reliable interlocking mechanisms for seamless on-site assembly.
- Integrated Hydraulic Punching & Cutting: Features an intelligent hydraulic punching system that accurately creates service holes, structural embossments, and web openings based on pre-programmed PLC specifications. The post-forming hydraulic shearing unit delivers clean, burr-free cuts with exact length tolerances, minimizing material waste.
- Intelligent PLC Automation: Driven by a state-of-the-art Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) with a user-friendly touchscreen interface, the production line automates the entire workflow. From decoiling and leveling to precision forming, punching, cutting, and stacking, it ensures flawless repeatability and reduces manual labor requirements.
- Heavy-Duty & Stable Construction: Built with a reinforced main frame and robust transmission systems, the machine is designed to withstand the continuous high-load stresses of forming complex steel profiles. This durable architecture minimizes vibration, ensuring long-term precision and low maintenance costs.
Applications
This customizable steel decking panel roll former is essential for producing advanced materials used in:
- High-rise commercial and residential steel structures

Advantages of Roll Forming A Metal Part
There are several advantages of using roll forming for your projects:
- The roll forming process allows operations such as punching, notching, and welding to be performed in-line. Labor cost and time for secondary operations are reduced or eliminated, reducing part costs.
- Roll form tooling allows for a high degree of flexibility. A single set of roll form tools will make almost any length of the same cross-section. Multiple sets of tools for varying length parts are not required.
- It can provide better dimensional control than other competing metal forming processes.
- Repeatability is inherent in the process, allowing easier assembly of roll formed parts into your finished product, and minimizing problems due to “standard” tolerance build up.
- Roll forming is typically a higher speed process.
- Roll forming offers customers a superior surface finish. This makes roll forming an excellent option for decorative stainless steel parts or for parts requiring a finish such as anodizing or powder coating. Also, texture or pattern can be rolled into the surface during forming.
- Roll forming utilizes material more efficiently than other competing processes.
- Roll formed shapes can be developed with thinner walls than competing processes
Roll forming is a continuous process which converts sheet metal into an engineered shape using consecutive sets of mated rolls, each of which makes only incremental changes in the form. The sum of these small changes in form is a complex profile.
