DUWELL guardrail roll forming machine can make the two wave (W beam) and three waves (thrie beam) rails in one machine. The line includes decoiler, leveler, servo feeder and pressing machine, roll forming, hydraulic cutting device, stacking system and controller. It is complete automatic production line. As one of the professional guardrail roll forming machine suppliers, we make the machine according to customer's required material thickness. If the customer just use the thickness below 2.5mm, we just use economic construction for the machine like chain transmission, with hydraulic punching device for holes.
If the customer use material thickness 3.0~5.0mm thickness, we will make heavy duty construction, with gear box transmission, 315ton pressure pressing machine for the holes.
This advanced configuration ensures that the DUWELL guardrail roll forming machine maintains stability, strength, and high-precision forming performance.
A highway guardrail roll forming machine is an industrial production line used to manufacture W-beam, Thrie-beam, and other highway safety barriers from steel coils, such as galvanized steel, stainless steel, or aluminum. Our guardrail roll forming machine integrates uncoiling, leveling, punching, roll forming, and cutting into one continuous process, ensuring high efficiency and consistent guardrail geometry.
As one of the professional highway guardrail roll forming machine manufacturers, DUWELL supplies high-performance equipment that complies with international highway safety standards and is widely used in infrastructure and transportation projects worldwide. Our guardrail roll forming machines are manufactured in our own guardrail roll forming machine factory, ensuring full control over design, machining, assembly, and quality inspection.
Uncoiler – Supports and feeds the metal coil into the machine.
Leveling Unit – Flattens the coil to prevent deformities.
Roll Forming Stations – Progressive shaping of the guardrail profile (W-beam, Thrie-beam, etc.).
Punching Unit (Optional) – Adds bolt holes for guardrail connections.
Hydraulic Cutting System – Cuts guardrails to exact lengths (6m, 12m, or custom).
PLC Control Panel – Ensures precision in length, punching, and speed.
Run-out Table – Supports and stacks finished guardrails.

Experienced guardrail roll forming machine supplier for highway projects
Custom machine design based on material thickness and standards
Heavy-duty structures for thick materials and long-term operation
Stable performance, low maintenance, and high forming accuracy
Complete after-sales support, including installation and operator training
A highway guardrail roll forming machine is a fully automatic cold roll forming production line
used to manufacture W beam guardrails, Thrie beam guardrails, and highway crash barriers
from galvanized steel coils.
This guardrail making machine continuously forms, punches, and cuts road safety barrier panels
with high precision and high speed, ensuring compliance with international highway safety standards.
Our W beam and Thrie beam guardrail roll forming machine can produce:
• 2-wave W beam guardrails
• 3-wave Thrie beam guardrails
• Highway crash barriers
• Road safety barrier panels
• Guardrail terminal sections
W-beam has a double-wave shape (used for standard highways).
Thrie-beam has a triple-wave shape (for higher impact resistance).
The machine can produce both in one machine.
Yes. Our automatic guardrail making machine features:
• Siemens / Delta PLC control
• Touch screen interface
• Automatic length cutting
• Automatic hole punching
• Production data monitoring
One operator can control the entire guardrail production line.
A complete highway guardrail roll forming line includes:
• Hydraulic decoiler (5T–10T)
• Precision leveling system
• Servo feeding system
• Hydraulic punching unit
• Roll forming machine
• Hydraulic cutting device
• PLC control system
• Auto stacker (optional)
Fully automatic operation reduces labor costs and increases production efficiency.
Yes, the machine can be equipped with a punching unit to create pre-punched holes for easy installation.
Typical forming stations:
• 13–18 stations for W beam guardrail
• 18–22 stations for Thrie beam guardrail
More forming stations ensure smoother forming, better wave shape, and higher profile accuracy.
Our guardrail roll forming equipment is designed for:
• Galvanized steel coils (GI)
• Hot-dip galvanized steel
• High-strength structural steel
• Q235 / Q345 steel
• ASTM standard steel
Material thickness range:
2.0mm – 4.0mm (customizable up to 5.0mm)
Heavy-duty frame ensures stable forming for thick highway guardrail materials.
Our high-speed guardrail cold roll forming machine operates at:
• 10–25 meters per minute (standard configuration)
• Up to 30 m/min with servo feeding system
The production speed depends on material thickness and punching requirements.
Yes, we offer on-site installation, testing, and operator training.
