Abstracts: The 3 roll plate bending machine is used to bend a straight plate into cylindrical shape. The three rolls are arranged in a pyramid manner having one roll at top and two rolls at bottom. The bottom two rolls are power driven & used to feed the plate. The hydraulic piston-cylinder arrangement is made at each end of the roll for moving the bottom rolls in radial direction to apply the force on the plate. This arrangement helps to transmit uniform force. A drop-end arrangement is also provided for easy removal of the curved plate
