Plate Leveler

Plate levelers are typically used for leveling thin and heavy gauge materials. They typically have individual roll control (position/force) and individual roll drive. With closed loop positioning control it allows for generating machine setting recipes for common plate runs.

Plate Leveler Equipment Options

With any Element Levelers, we offer several options that are available to increase the productivity of your equipment. Some of the options that we offer to maximize the capacity of our levelers include:

  • Stacking sections are available to stack leveled plates into bundles for shipment.
  • Variable roll geometry options are available to provide additional bending capabilities.
  • Closed loop positioning control allows for generating machine setting recipes for common plate runs.

Plate Leveler Experience

Element has supplied roll combination plate levelers between 3-roll and 8-roll arrangement designs.

A leveler can be used to remove flatness defects from many different materials. Element Machinery has built levelers for correction of flatness defects in materials. The yield strength of the material also determines the over all size of machine necessary.
