ABSTRACT:
A mobile roll-forming machine for shaping of metal panels used, for example, in building construction, roofing and the like. The machine may be easily transported to the construction site for on-site formation of metal panels, and supports a roll of sheet metal from which the panels are to be formed. The machine (10) comprises a main frame (11) to which a metal roll-forming head assembly (13) is removably secured, whereby different head assemblies may be quickly and easily substituted on the main frame for forming different shapes in the metal panels. The head assembly (13) may also be elevated to an inclined position relative to the main frame for matching the pitch of a surface being covered with the metal panels, whereby the panels may be fed directly from the machine onto the surface. The machine further includes a shear blade (36) for cutting the metal panels to any desired length, and slicing wheels (68) for cutting the panels to desired width.
