Greenhouse Gutter Roll Forming Machine (Half Round & Custom)
What Is a Greenhouse Gutter Roll Forming Machine?
A greenhouse gutter roll forming machine produces the long galvanized gutters that run between greenhouse bays, collecting rainwater from the roof slopes and channeling it to downpipes. Greenhouse gutters differ from building gutters: they are wider and deeper (typically 100-250 mm wide), have a profile that suits the greenhouse roof angle, and often include an extruded or rolled seal channel for the polycarbonate or glass panes. The gutter is a structural element of the greenhouse frame, so it must be strong and watertight over spans of 2-4 m between columns.
Typical Configurations
- Half-round greenhouse gutter: the classic deep half-circle profile, common in Europe and Africa.
- Angled / asymmetric gutters: profiles matched to the roof pitch of the greenhouse bays.
- Seal channels: some designs roll an integral groove for gaskets that hold the glazing.
- Material: galvanized or color-coated coil, 0.5-1.5 mm depending on the structural design.
