The ridge cap roll forming machine is typically used in conjunction with a metal roof panel roll forming machine to produce a complete metal roof system. The ridge cap roll forming machine can be customized to produce ridge caps of different shapes and sizes, depending on the specific requirements of the roofing project.

The machine typically includes a decoiler to hold the coil of metal, a leveling system to straighten the metal strip, a roll former to shape the metal into the ridge cap profile, and a cutting system to cut the finished product to the desired length.
