Product Description
The 9-Row U-Shaped Light Steel Keel Roll Forming Machine is a highly efficient and specialized piece of equipment designed for the mass production of U-shaped steel tracks. As a core component in modern light gauge steel framing systems, U-shaped keels (also known as U-tracks or runners) serve as the essential horizontal base and top plates for partition walls and ceiling systems. This machine is engineered to deliver precision, stability, and high output, making it an indispensable asset for building material manufacturers and steel framing contractors.
Manufactured with industry-leading expertise in cold roll forming technology, this machine transforms galvanized steel coils into perfectly shaped U-channels with consistent geometry and smooth surfaces. The 9-row roller station design is optimized for standard U-track profiles, ensuring a balance between production speed and forming accuracy. Whether you are producing components for drywall partitions, suspended ceilings, or decorative framing, this machine guarantees dimensional accuracy and structural integrity.
Key Features & Advantages
- Precision Roll Forming Technology: The machine features 9 high-quality roller stations crafted from premium 45# steel with hard chrome plating. This ensures the steel strip is gradually and smoothly formed into a perfect U-shape without scratching or damaging the galvanized coating.
- Intelligent PLC Control System: Equipped with an advanced PLC and a user-friendly touch screen interface, the machine allows for easy parameter setting, length adjustment, and batch counting. The system supports multiple languages, making it accessible for operators worldwide.
- Hydraulic Automatic Cutting: The high-precision hydraulic cutting system ensures clean, burr-free cuts at exact pre-programmed lengths. The cutting blade is made of Cr12Mov steel with heat treatment, guaranteeing long service life and consistent cutting tolerance (±1.0mm).
- Robust & Stable Structure: The main frame is constructed from heavy-duty welded steel, treated with stress relief annealing to prevent deformation. This heavy-duty structure ensures stable operation even during continuous high-speed production.
- Versatile & Customizable: While the 9-row configuration is ideal for standard U-tracks, we understand that market demands vary. The roller stations, shaft diameter, and forming specifications can be fully customized to produce different sizes of U-channels, C-studs, or other light steel keel profiles.
- High Efficiency & Low Maintenance: With a forming speed of up to 25 meters per minute and a reliable gear transmission system, this machine maximizes your production capacity. Its simple structure and high-quality electrical components ensure low maintenance costs and long-term reliability.
