Sheet Metal Forming Line of Refrigerator Shell

Overview of the Equipment

The equipment is specifically designed for the sheet metal forming of various refrigerator components, including the door shell (common shell, hidden door shell, and bilateral door shell), refrigerator U plate, and refrigerator backboard. This comprehensive production line is engineered to handle a wide range of forming tasks, ensuring high precision and efficiency in the manufacturing process. The overall line integrates multiple machines, each serving a distinct function, to achieve the desired product specifications.

Key Machines in the Production Line

The production line begins with a loading machine, which feeds raw materials into the system. Following this, a punching machine is used to create necessary holes and cutouts in the metal sheets. The rolling machine then shapes the sheets into the required curves and contours. A 180° turnover machine is employed to flip the sheets for further processing, while a 90° bending machine and an R bending machine are used to achieve precise angles and rounded edges. These machines work in tandem to ensure that the metal sheets are accurately formed according to the design specifications.

Advanced Forming and Finishing Machines

For more complex forming tasks, the line includes a punching and flanging machine, which adds detailed features and strengthens the edges of the components. A two-end benching machine is utilized to further refine the shape and ensure uniformity. Additionally, a condense pipe attachment belt line is integrated into the system to attach necessary components seamlessly. The U-type bending machine is specifically designed to form the U plates, a critical component in refrigerator assembly. Each of these machines is selected and configured based on the specific requirements of the product being manufactured.

Final Stages and Customization Options

The final stages of the production line involve an unloading machine, which can be optionally replaced with a robot for automated handling of finished components. This flexibility allows for customization based on production volume and specific performance requirements. The entire line is designed to be adaptable, with specific machines and configurations tailored to different product structures and performance needs. This ensures that the production process is both efficient and capable of producing high-quality refrigerator components.
