Buying a portable rollforming machine
Rick Zand|October 20, 2025

New Tech Machinery (NTM) has attended METALCON since the first expo, back in 1991, when the first SSP portable roof panel machine arrived on the scene.

This year, we’re featuring even more innovative new products and specials at METALCON booth #4027.

Every year, we meet with customers both old and new and show them what’s happening in portable rollforming, an industry we’ve been leading for nearly 35 years.

Here’s a preview of what’s coming to METALCON 2025:

The New SSQ3™ MultiPro Roof & Wall Panel Machine

We’ve got it running on the show floor,  in a colorful American flag wrap!

The SSQ3™ MultiPro, the latest in NTM’s flagship SSQ line, offers faster diagnostics, safter operation, quicker adjustments, and smarter technology to help streamline your rollforming operation and boost productivity.

NTM’s Mach II™ Gutter Workstation

NTM Gutter Workstation product rendering

The NTM Gutter Workstation transforms the way you work in the field. No more digging for tools, balancing material, or making extra trips back and forth. This workstation keeps everything you need—tools, hangers, and your chop saw—right at your fingertips while operating your portable gutter machine.

Designed with the installer in mind, it pivots 90° for instant use and folds away to stow neatly in your truck or trailer. That means faster setup, safer operation, and less downtime on the job.

Why You’ll Love It

  • Work Smarter, Not Harder – Stay organized and keep essential tools within easy reach.
  • Safety You Can Trust – Multi-stage tailgate safety system and stabilizer arm keep you protected.
  • Built for Your NTM Machine – Works seamlessly with NTM Mach II machines (and compatible copies with the same frame dimensions), while retaining the factory NTM shear.
  • Road-Ready Durability – Built-in travel lock and stabilizer hold everything steady during transport.

The Gutter Workstation is priced at $2,950

The Metal Panel Z-Cutter

NTM’s Z-cutter is designed specifically with contractors’ needs in mind—saving you time, reducing labor costs, and consistently producing high-quality Z-closures. By streamlining the cutting process, this accessory empowers you to deliver faster, more reliable results, enhancing your overall productivity and profitability.

Why You’ll Love It

  • Time Savings: The Z-cutter enables contractors to cut Z-closures without the hassle of wrestling with snips, tools, or saws. With the Z-cutter, you can cut the closure in an instant.
  • Reduced Labor Costs: The Z-cutter requires fewer man-hours to produce better, more consistent results, saving thousands in labor expenses over the life of your projects.
  • Optimize Material Usage: The Z-cutter complements common metal-folding machinery (such as standard 10-foot brakes), allowing contractors to efficiently utilize leftover trim pieces to create Z-closures, reducing waste and maximizing material efficiency.
  • Versatile: Cuts 26-gauge and 24-gauge steel, and .032 and .040 aluminum.
  • Attaches to the SSQ™ MultiPro, SSH™ MultiPro, and SSR™ MultiPro Jr. portable panel machines.

The Z-cutter is priced at $3,600

New Easy, Online Financing

Financing your machine just became easier than ever.

Now, you can build and finance your machine all in the same place. View the estimated monthly payment amount as you build and receive approval after completing a short application. You’ll be matched with the right top-tier lending institution within hours!

Why You’ll Love It

  • Speed to decision: Configure your machine, apply online, and get connected with a lender within hours. This means you don’t have to shop around trying to find a lender that will finance your purchase and end up with multiple credit checks on your record.
  • Cash preservation: Financing spreads cost, letting you invest in coil, labor, and marketing. Financing frees up your cash, allowing you to continue investing in your business.
  • Right build, first time: Configure for the profiles, accessories, and add-ons you actually need, or choose from one of our popular machine packages. The configurator adjusts the estimated monthly payments to your added options.

How the Financing Flow Works

  1. Submit your credit application—even if your quote isn’t finalized.
  2. Receive approval details (usually within 4–8 business hours).
  3. Finalize your equipment quote with your NTM sales rep.
  4. Fund through your matched lender; begin production.

Note: Final approval is subject to credit assessment, underwriting, equipment/vendor approval, and any required documentation. Terms, rates, and amounts vary with creditworthiness and other factors.
