Highway Guardrail Forming Machine

Highway Guardrail Forming Machine

A highway guardrail forming machine is an important part of the road safety system. It helps to prevent accidents and protect passengers or vehicles from the risk of slipping and falling into dangerous and off-limits areas. It is mostly used to protect people and cars in highways, parking lots, scenic spots, high-speed roads, and rural roadways.

The basic material of a highway guardrail consists of a steel skeleton that is supported by a steel column. The skeleton is usually formed with a steel sheet that has been stretched and welded to each other using welding technology. The finished product is smooth, precise and durable to use and is also easy to install.

Types of Highway Guardrail Forming Machine

There are three main types of guard rail forming machines: W beam, thrie-beam, and cassette type roll forming machine. There are also a range of options available for your specific production needs.

Typically, W-beam guardrails are the most common in use on roadway systems, while thrie-beams feature extra corrugation and have a higher impact endurance than W-beam. Cassette type roll forming machines can make both W beam and thrie-beam guardrail in one line, which saves time and money.
