High Speed Light Steel Keel Machine - Drywall C & U

Drywall and ceiling profiles are high-volume, low-margin products, so the machine that makes them must run fast and stop rarely. This High Speed Light Steel Keel forms the target sections from galvanized coil at high line speed, with a PLC that keeps lengths consistent for palletizing and direct dispatch.

Overview

The High Speed Light Steel Keel Machine is a fully automatic roll forming line designed to produce light steel keel and drywall C/U profiles at high speed. With 7.5kw,7 KW drive power, 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. with a 1 Year warranty. Every unit ships with a machinery test report and video outgoing-inspection.

These machines supply profiles to drywall contractors, ceiling installers and partition-system manufacturers. Target profiles are consumed in office fit-outs, hotels, hospitals and residential projects wherever lightweight steel framing is preferred over timber. Demand is steady, so a drywall line usually reaches high utilization within the first months of operation.

Key Specifications of the High Speed Light Steel Keel

Rated forming speed is 0-40m/min, which sets the practical daily output of the line and makes production planning straightforward for the sizes you run. The main drive is rated at 7.5kw, sized for continuous operation at full line speed without overheating on long shifts. Electrical supply is 380V 50HZ 3Phase, and the control cabinet can be adapted to your local voltage when ordering. Length presets, counting and profile programs run on the Siemens Control System, so operators switch between jobs from the panel without mechanical re-setup. The machine is built to run 45# steel coil, and the tooling path is set up for these coated or galvanized materials without surface marking. The complete line occupies roughly 6800mm*800mm*1200mm on the workshop floor, including the operating clearances at the coil and finished-sheet ends.

For drywall lines, uptime is everything. This High Speed Light Steel Keel uses a drive sized for continuous duty, a quick-release roller arrangement for profile changes, and a cutting unit that keeps pace with the fastest packing crew. Most operators reach full rated speed within the first week.

FAQ

What is the minimum order quantity?

The MOQ is 1 set.

What material does this machine process?

It processes 45# steel coil.

What is the warranty period?

A 1 Year 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.

What is the forming speed of this machine?

The rated forming speed is 0-40m/min. Actual output depends on the profile, material gauge and cutting cycle; we confirm the tested speed for your configuration in the quotation.

What is the installed power of this machine?

The line is rated at 7.5kw. Power consumption in practice is lower than the rated figure for most running profiles, since the drive only loads under material.

Which profiles can it produce?

The machine is delivered with rollers for your target profiles, commonly C stud, U track, furring channel, hat channel, wall angle and ceiling T-bar. Additional roller sets can be supplied later for new sizes.

What after-sales support do you offer?

We provide installation guidance by video, a commissioning checklist, a spare parts list and remote assistance during setup. Roller and blade spares are available for re-order.

What coil material is suitable?

Galvanized and pre-painted steel coil from 0.3 mm to 1.0 mm is typical for drywall and ceiling profiles. If you plan a different gauge range, tell us so we can adjust the forming stations and drive.

Does it cut profiles to length automatically?

Yes, lengths are set in the PLC and the machine cuts automatically, with counting support for standard packing. Length presets can be stored for the different products you run.
