New & Used Zimmerman Machines for Sale

Zimmerman Metals is a third-generation family company founded in Denver, Colorado, in 1936 by William George Zimmerman. Alongside its structural steel and machining divisions, the Roll Form Division designs and builds machines for metal roofing, arched buildings and downspout. Its commercial roof panel machine runs multiple panels in any width from 12 to 24 inches, forming 1-3/4 inch snap-lock or 2-inch mechanically seamed profiles, with tooling changeovers the company puts at about an hour. Zimmerman credits its patented cast polyurethane drive system and free-wheeling stainless steel forming rollers with keeping oil canning down.The company also builds the Quick Span arch machine for self-supporting curved buildings and the ELF elbow forming machine for downspout elbows. On the used market, Zimmerman roof panel machines are stout in-plant or trailer-mounted units; confirm the profiles and widths the tooling covers, check the drive rollers and hydraulics, and ask Zimmerman about parts and service support for older machines.
