C & U Channel Steel Framing Machine - House Building

Every roofing contractor and building-material distributor needs a line that turns coil into sale-ready panels at a predictable cost. This C & U Channel Steel Framing is built around that job: it forms the target profile continuously, cuts it to a programmable length, and keeps sheet dimensions consistent so panels pack, stack and install without rework.

Overview

The C & U Channel Steel Framing Machine is a fully automatic roll forming line designed to produce C and U channels for light gauge steel house building framing. With 14 roller stations forming stations, 0.4-0.9 mm material, feeding width Other, it delivers consistent, high quality production for building and construction applications.

Manufactured by Zhongtuo (ZTRFM) in Botou, Hebei, China, this machine uses high grade 45# steel shafts and rollers. PLC control ensures automatic operation. It is CE/ISO9001 certified with a 2 Years warranty. Every unit ships with a machinery test report and video outgoing-inspection.

Roofing lines of this class are used across residential and light-commercial projects: house roofs, farm buildings, warehouses, workshops and shade structures. Buyers in Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia and Latin America run these machines to produce corrugated and trapezoidal sheet, ridge capping, flashings and trim sold through local hardware channels.

Key Specifications of the C & U Channel Steel Framing

The profile is formed progressively through 14 roller stations, which spreads the bending load over many passes and keeps section dimensions steady across long runs. The line is set up for coil in the 0.4-0.9 mm thickness range, with roller clearances and cutting capacity matched to that material program. Electrical supply is 220V-3P-50HZ, and the control cabinet can be adapted to your local voltage when ordering. Length presets, counting and profile programs run on the Delta, so operators switch between jobs from the panel without mechanical re-setup. Forming rollers are Gcr12 Steel, giving predictable profile accuracy and long intervals between re-grinds. The forming shafts are 50 mm, selected for stiffness so the roller stack stays aligned under load.

Three things decide whether a roofing line earns back its cost: changeover speed, cut accuracy and roller life. This C & U Channel Steel Framing addresses each directly. Profile changes take minutes because the roller stations sit on a common frame; the PLC stores multiple length presets so operators switch between panel lengths in seconds; and the rollers are machined from hardened, ground steel that keeps width consistent across tens of thousands of meters.

FAQ

What is the minimum order quantity?

The MOQ is 1 set.

What material does this machine process?

It processes 50 mm coil.

What is the warranty period?

A 2 Years warranty applies, with machinery test report and video outgoing-inspection provided.

Can the machine be customized for my profile?

Yes. Roller sets and profiles can be customized to your drawings, and OEM/ODM service is available.

How many forming stations does this machine have?

This model is equipped with 14 roller stations. The station count is matched to the profile complexity, so each pass adds only a small bend and the section holds its shape without spring-back issues.

What material thickness can this machine process?

The machine is configured for coil thickness in the 0.4-0.9 mm range. If you plan to run material outside this range, tell us in advance so we can adjust the roller stations and cutting unit.

What coil width and gauge can this line process?

The machine is set up around your coil program during production planning. Tell us your strip width (typically 600-1250 mm) and gauge range (usually 0.25-0.8 mm for light profiles, up to 1.0 mm for heavier sections) and we match the roller stations, motor power and cutting capacity to those values.

How long does a profile change take?

Profile changes are measured in minutes, not hours, because the roller stations are mounted on a common frame and aligned to fixed centers. The PLC also stores the programs for your most common profiles, so after the changeover the operator only recalls the saved program.

How is the machine tested before shipping?

We run a full production test with your coil width and gauge, cut sample sheets, and record the profiles and lengths. You receive test photos and video before shipment.

Do you provide the rollers for my profile?

Yes. Every machine ships with the forming rollers, cutting tooling and PLC program matched to your profile drawing. If you add a new profile later, we can supply an additional roller set built to your drawing.
