MWhena yocur mhacihnine eisn't performing optimally, production delays 
and costly downtime follow. Master these troubleshooting 
techniques to keep operations running smoothly.
Understanding Your Machine
How It Works
A 3 roll plate roller has an upper roll and two lower rolls. Metal 
sheets pass through these rolls, with applied pressure forming 
them into cylinders or curves.
Hydraulic models offer the best precision, power, and control 
for metal forming operations.
Common Machine Issues
Uneven Bending Plate Slippage
Misaligned rolls or uneven pressure distribution Insufficient pressure or worn rollers
Hydraulic Loss Motor Issues
Leaks, low fluid, or clogged filters Electrical faults or mechanical wear
Solving Uneven Bends & Slippage
Check Alignment Correct Feeding
Recalibrate roll positions and ensure even hydraulic Feed plates at the proper entry angle and test-bend 
pressure on both sides. samples before production.
Clean Surfaces Adjust Pressure
Remove oil and dust from plates and rollers to Increase pressure on feeding rollers for better grip 
prevent slippage. and consistency.
Hydraulic & Electrical Troubleshooting
Hydraulic System Fixes
• Check fluid levels regularly
• Inspect hoses, valves, and seals for leaks
• Replace clogged filters
• Use manufacturer-recommended hydraulic oil
Electrical Checks
• Inspect power supply and control panel
• Check for blown fuses or tripped breakers
• Verify safety switches are engaged
• Examine wiring for wear
Preventing Roller Damage & 
Misalignment
Keep Rollers Clean
Prevent rust and damage by keeping rollers clean and rust-free. Avoid rolling dirty or 
rusty plates.
Proper Storage
Store machines in dry, clean areas and apply protective coatings during idle periods.
Calibration Solutions
Use leveling gauges to ensure even roller positions. Recalibrate using control settings 
and run test bends.
Replace When Needed
Re-grind or replace rollers immediately when visible wear, dents, or scratches appear.
Maintenance & Safety Best Practices
Daily 1
Clean machine after every operation to prevent buildup 
and contamination.
2 Weekly
Lubricate moving parts with high-quality grease. Avoid 
over-lubrication that attracts debris.
Monthly 3
Inspect hydraulic oil levels and quality. Check for leaks or 
contamination.
4 Quarterly
Tighten bolts and fittings. Conduct comprehensive system 
checks and operator training.
Safety First: Never bypass limit switches. Keep hands clear of moving rolls. Always wear protective gear including gloves, 
goggles, and boots.
