The Radiator Panel Straightening and Leveling Machine is designed to remove welding deformation from transformer radiator panels after seam welding and end welding processes.
During radiator manufacturing, heat generated by welding may cause panel bending or distortion. This machine restores panel flatness through a controlled roller straightening process, ensuring accurate dimensions for subsequent stacking and assembly.
With adjustable straightening rolls, pressure wheels, and automatic line synchronization, the equipment helps transformer manufacturers achieve consistent radiator panel quality, improved assembly accuracy, and stable production efficiency.

The Radiator Panel Straightening and Leveling Machine is installed after end welding and before automatic stacking or header pipe assembly.
Typical production process:
Steel Coil Feeding → Hydraulic Mandrel Decoiler → Radiator Panel Roll Forming → Panel Turnover & Joining → Multi-Spot Welding → Dual Seam Welding → Edge Trimming → End Cutting → End Welding → Straightening & Leveling → Automatic Stacking → Header Pipe Assembly
After all welding operations are completed, the machine removes panel deformation and ensures radiator panels maintain proper flatness before assembly.
This process improves stacking accuracy, fixture positioning, and final radiator manufacturing consistency.
The machine corrects deformation caused by welding heat, restoring radiator panels to the required flatness before assembly.
The equipment uses multiple straightening rolls to apply controlled reverse bending, gradually improving panel flatness without damaging the radiator structure.
The upper rolls can be adjusted vertically according to different panel thicknesses, ensuring stable leveling performance.
The straightening rolls are made of 40Cr hardened steel, providing excellent wear resistance and long service life.
The machine can operate together with upstream and downstream equipment through automatic start and stop control.

The machine uses multiple rollers to apply controlled reverse bending and gradually remove panel deformation.
The straightening rolls use 40Cr hardened steel for durability and stable long-term operation.
Yes. The upper rolls can be vertically adjusted to suit different panel thickness requirements.
The standard straightening speed is 8 m/min, suitable for automatic radiator production lines.
No. It can run automatically with the production line through synchronized start and stop control.
The main wear components are the 40Cr straightening rolls and GCr15 pressure wheels, which can be maintained or replaced when required.
