Baileigh PR-510 Plate Roller
The Baileigh PR-510 is a hydraulic plate rolling machine designed to form metal sheets up to 3.4mm thick and 1550mm wide into precise cylindrical and conical shapes, delivering the power and precision you need for professional fabrication work.
Are you looking for a plate roller that can handle serious production work without breaking the bank? The PR-510 from Baileigh Industrial has established itself as a trusted workhorse in sheet metal fabrication shops across Europe. This machine brings together hydraulic power, precision engineering, and user-friendly operation to help you create everything from simple cylinders to complex conical forms.
What makes the PR-510 stand out is its robust construction. At its heart is a fully welded plate steel frame that eliminates deflection even when you're working at maximum capacity. This means the curves and cylinders you create today will match perfectly with ones you make next month or next year. The machine features three driven rolls powered by a 2 hp motor, which gives you consistent rolling action throughout the entire forming process. Unlike machines with only one driven roll, having all three rolls powered means your material feeds smoothly and efficiently, reducing setup time and minimizing the risk of slippage.
The PR-510 is perfect for fabrication shops, HVAC contractors, custom manufacturers, and anyone who regularly works with sheet metal. Whether you're forming ductwork, creating tank sections, fabricating machine housings, or building custom architectural elements, this machine gives you the versatility to tackle a wide range of projects. The hydraulically controlled back roll can move up and down as well as tilt left and right, which means you can create not just perfect cylinders but also conical shapes for specialized applications. A digital readout displays the back roll position, so you can return to exact settings for repeat jobs without guessing or trial and error.
Applications
- HVAC Ductwork Fabrication: Roll metal sheets into round ducts and ventilation components with consistent quality, perfect for heating and air conditioning installations.
- Tank and Vessel Construction: Create cylindrical sections for storage tanks, pressure vessels, and industrial containers across various industries including food processing and petrochemical.
- Architectural Metalwork: Form curved panels, column covers, and decorative metal elements for building facades and interior design projects.
- Machine Housing and Guards: Fabricate protective covers, enclosures, and safety guards for industrial equipment and machinery.
- Pipe and Tube Manufacturing: Roll sheet metal into custom diameter pipes for specialized applications where standard piping won't work.
- Automotive and Transport Components: Produce curved body panels, exhaust components, and structural elements for custom vehicles and trailers.
Key Features & Benefits
- Three Driven Rolls for Superior Control: All three rolls are powered, which means your material feeds consistently without slipping or stalling. This saves you time on every job and gives you better, more predictable results.
- Hydraulic Back Roll Adjustment: The back roll moves up and down hydraulically, giving you precise control over your bend radius. You can also tilt it left and right for creating conical shapes, adding versatility to your capabilities.
- Digital Position Readout: Never lose your settings again. The digital display shows you exactly where your back roll is positioned, so you can return to the same setup instantly for repeat jobs or production runs.
- Hardened and Polished Rolls: The 120.6mm diameter rolls are hardened for durability and then polished to a smooth finish. This means your finished work comes out without scratches or marks, saving you finishing time.
- Rigid Welded Steel Frame: The heavy-duty frame construction prevents any flexing or deflection, even when you're working with material at the machine's full capacity. This engineering detail ensures accuracy over years of demanding use.
- 1550mm Working Width: With over 1.5 meters of working width, you can handle large sheets without the need to cut them down, reducing waste and expanding your project possibilities.
- 3.4mm Mild Steel Capacity: Work confidently with material up to 3.4mm thick in mild steel, plus handle thinner gauges in aluminum and stainless steel for maximum versatility.
- Minimum 181mm Forming Diameter: Create tight radius bends for smaller diameter cylinders and tubes, giving you flexibility across a wide range of project sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a plate roller and a slip roller?
A plate roller like the PR-510 is designed for heavier gauge materials and uses hydraulic power to form metal into cylinders and cones. Slip rollers are typically lighter duty machines meant for thinner materials. The PR-510 can handle up to 3.4mm mild steel, making it suitable for serious fabrication work that would overwhelm a slip roller.
Can I form conical shapes, or just cylinders?
Yes, you can create conical shapes. The PR-510's back roll tilts both left and right hydraulically, which allows you to form cones. For specialized cone work, there's also an optional coning attachment available that gives you even more control over the taper angle.
Do I need special training to operate this machine?
While the PR-510 is designed for professional use, it's relatively straightforward to operate. Basic metalworking knowledge is helpful, but the foot pedal controls and digital readout make the machine intuitive. Baileigh provides an operating manual with your purchase, plus you have access to lifetime technical support by phone if you need guidance or have questions as you learn.
What kind of maintenance does the PR510 require?
Regular maintenance is straightforward. You'll need to keep the rolls clean and lightly oiled to prevent rust, check hydraulic fluid levels periodically, and ensure all moving parts are properly lubricated according to the maintenance schedule in your manual. The hardened rolls are designed for long-term durability with minimal wear.
What power supply do I need for installation?
The PR-510 requires 400V, 3-phase power at 50Hz, which is standard in European industrial facilities. Make sure your shop has the appropriate electrical service before ordering. If you're unsure about your power setup, consult with a qualified electrician to verify compatibility.
