Metal Stud Roll Forming Machine - Steel Frame & Truss

Structural purlins need straight, twist-free sections because every bend error multiplies across a roof bay. This Metal Stud forms the target purlin sections with driven stations sized to the material thickness you run, then straightens and cuts to length automatically, so the purlins you supply go up on site without forcing or re-drilling.

Overview

The Metal Stud Roll Forming Machine is a fully automatic roll forming line designed to produce metal studs for steel frame and truss construction. With 0.3-0.8mm Thickness material, 14KW 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.

Heavy-duty versions run thicker coil for main structural members, while lighter sections feed secondary framing. We help you match the forming station count and punching options to the section range you plan to sell, so you do not pay for capacity you will not use in the first two years.

Key Specifications of the Metal Stud

The line is set up for coil in the 0.3-0.8mm Thickness thickness range, with roller clearances and cutting capacity matched to that material program. The main drive is rated at 14KW, sized for continuous operation at full line speed without overheating on long shifts. Electrical supply is 380V, and the control cabinet can be adapted to your local voltage when ordering. Length presets, counting and profile programs run on the PLC+Touch Screen, so operators switch between jobs from the panel without mechanical re-setup. Forming rollers are Cr12, giving predictable profile accuracy and long intervals between re-grinds. The forming shafts are 45# Steel Outer Diameter: 70mm, selected for stiffness so the roller stack stays aligned under load.

Key Features

Processes Cr12 raw material
Handles 0.3-0.8mm Thickness material thickness
PLC+Touch Screen for automatic operation
Machinery test report and video outgoing-inspection provided

Programmable punching is available as an option: bolt holes for end plates and bracing are punched during forming, so your customer assembles the frame faster on site and you can charge a premium for a ready-to-erect product instead of raw lengths.

FAQ

What is the minimum order quantity?

The MOQ is 1 set.

What material does this machine process?

It processes Cr12 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 material thickness can this machine process?

The machine is configured for coil thickness in the 0.3-0.8mm Thickness 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 is the installed power of this machine?

The line is rated at 14KW. Power consumption in practice is lower than the rated figure for most running profiles, since the drive only loads under material.

Does it run both C and Z sections?

The two-in-one design runs C and Z profiles on one line by changing the roller arrangement and program. If you need both sections, this configuration usually costs less than two separate machines.

How accurate is the cut length?

The cutting system is synchronized with the line encoder, and finished lengths are held to approximately plus or minus 1 mm. Longer programs run continuously with the PLC tracking the count.

Do you supply lines for solar mounting profiles?

Yes, we build purlin and strut lines for solar mounting frames, including strut channel sections such as 41x21 and heavier rails. Specify the section drawing and coating and we will confirm the configuration.

What section sizes can this machine form?

The machine is tooled for your section range, typically C and Z purlins from 80 mm to 350 mm web depth; heavy-duty versions handle thicker material up to 6 mm. Send your section drawings or size list and we confirm the forming stations and tooling.
