Product Overview
The Tricycle Carriage Plate Forming Equipment is a specialized, high-efficiency manufacturing system designed exclusively for the three-wheeled vehicle and light cargo transport industry. Engineered to produce premium, one-piece bottom boards, this advanced roll forming machine seamlessly transforms steel coils into structurally superior, seamless carriage floors. By integrating precision roll forming, automated punching, and continuous cutting into a single streamlined production line, it eliminates the need for welding multiple panels. This one-piece bottom board roll forming machine is the ultimate turnkey solution for tricycle and light truck manufacturers seeking to maximize structural integrity, reduce assembly labor, and meet the high-volume demands of the urban logistics and agricultural transport markets.
- One-Piece Seamless Bottom Board Forming: The standout feature of this equipment is its ability to produce a complete, one-piece carriage bottom board with integrated side folds and drainage channels. This seamless design eliminates welding joints, significantly enhancing the structural rigidity, load-bearing capacity, and waterproof performance of the tricycle carriage.
- High-Precision Roll Forming Stations: Engineered with meticulously calibrated, heavy-duty forming stations, the machine ensures that every one-piece bottom board features uniform folds, crisp edges, and exact dimensional tolerances. The premium-grade, hard-chromed rollers guarantee flawless surface quality and consistent geometry for perfect fitment during vehicle assembly.
- Integrated Automatic Hydraulic Punching: Designed for manufacturing efficiency, the system includes a high-speed hydraulic punching unit that automatically creates precise mounting holes, bolt holes, and drainage openings directly during the forming process. The punching positions are fully programmable via the PLC, eliminating secondary drilling and drastically reducing production time.
- Continuous High-Speed Cutting System: Equipped with a robust hydraulic flying shear mechanism, the machine dynamically tracks the moving board to execute clean, burr-free cuts at exact lengths without stopping the production line. This continuous cutting technology maximizes throughput and ensures seamless, high-speed manufacturing of carriage plates.
- Intelligent PLC Automation: Governed by a cutting-edge Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and a user-friendly touchscreen HMI, the machine automates the entire workflow. Operators can effortlessly set board lengths, batch quantities, and punching parameters. The intelligent system ensures high repeatability, automated length counting, and rapid recipe switching.
- Heavy-Duty Structural Frame & Material Versatility: Built with a reinforced steel chassis to absorb intense forming forces, the machine guarantees stable, continuous operation. It is specifically optimized for processing high-strength galvanized steel, color steel, and aluminum coils, with smooth roller surfaces that protect protective coatings from scratching, ensuring superior corrosion resistance.
The high-precision, one-piece bottom boards produced by this machine are essential components across the light transport and agricultural sectors, including:
- Electric & Gas Tricycles: Manufacturing durable, seamless carriage floors for cargo tricycles, delivery trikes, and passenger tuk-tuks widely used in urban and rural transport.
- Light Commercial Vehicles: Producing structurally superior, one-piece bottom plates for mini-trucks, light cargo carriers, and neighborhood electric vehicles (NEVs).
- Agricultural & Farm Transport: Supplying heavy-duty, impact-resistant carriage bottoms for agricultural trailers, farm carts, and livestock transport tricycles.
- Logistics & Last-Mile Delivery: Creating lightweight, high-strength, and waterproof carriage floors for parcel delivery tricycles and urban logistics fleets.

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.
