Metal sheets and plates are made flat, removing the stress and uneven areas through the process of sheet leveling. Leveling machines effectively remove the cause of uneven areas during handling or storage by passing them through a series of leveling rollers. This ensures productivity and reduces the need for rework.
Improved Flatness: Leveling machines remove the waves and unevenness.
Reduce Internal Stress: Reduces the excess stress caused during cutting, rolling, and handling.
Enhanced Cutting Quality: Laser, plasma, and waterjet cutting machines can easily cut through the flat sheets.
Increased Productivity: This machine ensures that the sheets and plates are straight, which reduces the need for manual straightening, reworks, and other adjustments.
Leveling machines find their application across diverse industries, such as:
● Sheet metal fabrication
● Laser cutting
● Stamping and Press shops
● Steel service centers
● Welding applications
● Aerospace and heavy equipment manufacturing

When it comes to innovative ideas in the field of leveling, Kohler’s name stands first. They design and manufacture machines for part leveling, which has a major role in fabricating metals. These part leveling machines help flatten as well as de-stress metal sheets and also the part blanks. Their main aim is to attain maximum results in leveling and extraordinary efficiency.
This model of leveling machine offers highly reliable and accurate levels and eliminates any stress from sheets as well as part blanks. It’s sure that the downstream manufacturing process will have the advantage of superior quality levels on parts as well as sheets, as there is little requirement for time consumption and manual work. These machines have zero hydraulic systems, meaning that with their extraordinary energy-efficient mechanism, they are capable of playing a great role in preserving resources in the sheet metal processing industry. Kohler is breaking records and ensuring their place as an industry leader with its capability to be used for direct drives as well as electromechanical dynamic leveling gap controls in part leveling machines that are hydraulic-free. These machines help level sheets that are of thickness between 0.2 - 66mm Depending on the model.
A major step in metal fabrication is Part Leveling. The sheet metals and plates that are being delivered to a fabrication business normally look flat. But there can be situations where, even though those metals look flat initially may lose their flat texture while the fabrication process happens. This is why you should think about the raw materials before they reach the shop. Metals and sheets are sent to shops from mills as coils, which have to be straightened and then cut to required lengths. Even though the sheet looks to be flat, it will have stress on the inside.
For the model 130P.2000 model of Peak Performer machines, there are several positive features and ensures maximum results in leveling, such as versatility, reliability, and less cost of operation. Out of the many deciding factors, the most prominent are the super modern servo electronic machine idea and the complete absence of hydraulics.
Part leveling machines that can be utilised for light lasers as well as parts that are stamped are used for accurate levelling of small to medium parts. Extraordinary results are achieved in leveling by small-diameter leveling rollers, all with traditional materials and the dynamic leveling gap control system which is patented. The technology of hydraulics is utilised for the operation of servo electronic machines. The cleaning system developed by Kohler utilising the latest technologies helps in easy cleaning of leveling and supporting rollers. Apart from these benefits, additional features include extra-wide supporting rollers, reversible leveling rollers, intelligent return feed operation, and pinch point prevention.
The part leveling machines have a roller bending system that helps in targeted prevention of edge or central waves, basically utilised for perforated sheets as well as panels. These types are best for preventing edge and central waves by pre-bending the rollers for levelling that use a wedge system that can separately or collectively adjust the bottom supporting roller blocks. The latest machine technology also works with no hydraulics – like any other KOHLER part leveling machine.
• Servo-electronic machine concept without hydraulics
• Energy-efficient direct drives
• Patented electromechanical dynamic leveling-gap control
• Advanced roller-cleaning system
• Patented reversible leveling rollers
• Extra-wide supporting rollers
• Intelligent return-feed operation
• Pinch-point prevention
• Intuitive machine control
• Predictive-maintenance capabilities
• Configurations for correcting edge and centre waves
Certain Peak Performer configurations incorporate a roller-bending system for the targeted correction of edge and centre waves. A wedge-based adjustment system allows the lower supporting roller blocks to be adjusted individually or collectively, enabling controlled pre-bending of the leveling rollers.
This configuration is particularly suitable
for perforated sheets and panels, where the manufacturing process can create
uneven stress distribution and complex surface distortions.
KOHLER has extensive experience in the development of industrial leveling technology. Its Peak Performer machines combine precision, energy efficiency, reliable operation, and low maintenance requirements.
With the correct machine configuration, manufacturers can achieve consistently flat, low-stress components while reducing scrap, manual correction, and production downtime.
