A profiling station, a profiling unit formed therefrom and also a profiling installation continuously form a material strip into a profile. The profiling station includes a rack frame, a profiling arrangement with a forming roller and also a first and a second counter roller as well as a drive assembly. A first roller axis and a second roller axis of the counter rollers form between them a buckling angle, wherein the counter rollers define a bending edge for the material strip to be formed. The first counter roller and also the second counter roller are driven by the drive assembly in such a way that the first counter roller has a circumferential speed at its outer circumference and the second counter roller has a circumferential speed at its outer circumference that are equal to one another.
