A profile straightening apparatus 5 for a profiling system which is used to produce a metal profile 4 by roll profiling along a longitudinal axis of the metal profile. The profile straightening apparatus is intended for correcting axial deviations of the metal profile from a prescribed profile geometry, and includes a frame 8 and having at least two interacting correction rollers 6, 7, which are mounted in the frame, receive the metal profile between them and, in relation to the longitudinal axis of the metal profile, are adjustable in two radial directions and also in at least one direction of rotation. The profile straightening apparatus is equipped with force measuring sensors for any forces Fy, Fz acting in the metal profile in one or both radial directions and for any torques Mx acting in the metal profile in a direction of rotation about the longitudinal axis.
