W Pan & Flat Pan
W Pan machines are designed to create metal panels with a distinctive "W" profile. This ribbed design not only adds visual appeal but also contributes to the structural integrity of the panels, making them ideal for various outdoor applications.
W-Pan covers are chosen for their durability and load strength achieved by the 'W' profile of the pans. These are often used in the construction of long span patio covers, car ports, commercial awnings and equipment shelter systems. Simple locking pan design and complete kits make installation easy for anyone to complete. Simply provide us with the width & span and we will package an engineered turnkey kit and ship it to your location.
Flat Pan Roll Forming Machine is designed to produce the metal sheet in flat panel. Flat pan roofs are economical roof systems.
The pans are boxed on one end to help prevent water from blowing into the wall header. They attach easily to any structure, and allow easy conversion to a patio enclosure.
