MPN: BA9-1006531 The Baileigh PR-503 Hydraulic Plate Roll is a true workhorse and a staple of Baileigh's plate roll line, purpose-built to meet the demands of small to medium fabrication shops. Engineered around a heavy welded steel frame that resists flex for extended machine life, the PR-503 combines a fully hydraulic drive system with three driven rolls to deliver consistent, repeatable bends across a maximum forming width of 61 inches. Whether you are rolling mild steel sheet metal up to 3-gauge (1/4") thickness or tackling high-volume production runs, this machine brings the durability, precision, and operator-friendly features that serious fabricators rely on every day. Key Features Welded Steel Frame: Heavy steel construction maintains accuracy and prevents flex, contributing to longer machine life and consistent forming results over time. Maximum 61" Forming Width: Accommodates a broad range of sheet metal workpieces, making the PR-503 well-suited for small to medium fabrication shop applications. Rolls Up to 3-Gauge (1/4") Mild Steel: Capable of forming substantial mild steel sheet metal, giving fabricators the capacity to handle real-world production tasks. 5-HP Motor on 220-Volt Three-Phase Power: A robust 5-horsepower motor provides the drive force needed for demanding rolling operations. Three Driven Rolls: All three rolls are powered, allowing you to shape more material faster and increase overall productivity on the shop floor. Completely Hydraulically Driven: Full hydraulic operation delivers dependable, smooth performance and long-term reliability compared to mechanical alternatives. Digital Readout (Standard): Tracks the position of the back roll so operators can monitor settings accurately, reducing material waste and improving consistency between parts. Quick-Release Top Roll Mechanism: Simplifies the removal of completed work that is wrapped around the roll, reducing downtime between cycles. Dual Emergency Stop Cables: Located on both the front and back of the machine, these safety cables give operators immediate access to a full stop from either working position.
