IBR Roof Panel Profile
IBR roofing sheets are roll-formed from galvanized steel coils with a typical material thickness of 0.3 to 0.8 mm. The profile is characterized by five prominent ribs, each separated by strengthening channels that enhance structural rigidity, long-term durability, and effective rainwater drainage.
Due to these performance advantages, IBR roof panels are extensively used in residential buildings, industrial facilities, and commercial roofing applications.

Production Process
Flow Chart: Hydraulic Decoiler → Entry Guide → Roll Former → Hydraulic Cutter → Out Table
Process: The production line unwinds steel coils, aligns the strip, and feeds into the roll former. The chain-driven forming unit shapes the steel into precise IBR roof panels with ribs between waves. A hydraulic cutter provides accurate cutting without material distortion, ensuring consistent quality for high-volume roofing production.
Key Features
- Chain-driven roll former with protective cover ensures safe and stable operation
- Rib-reinforced IBR profile offers superior strength and weather resistance
- Hydraulic cutting system guarantees precise panel length and clean edges
- Cost-effective solution suitable for both small and medium roofing manufacturers
