Uni Strut Channel Roll Forming Machine

A Uni Strut Channel Roll Forming Machine takes flat metal coils and bends them into U-shaped strut channels. These machines are very important for modern factories. Furthermore, they work automatically and make parts incredibly fast. Because they bend the metal smoothly, the final product is very strong. Consequently, top factories use this machine to make metal supports for builders all over the world.

🏭 What is a Uni Strut Channel Roll Forming Machine?

This machine is a large factory tool that turns flat steel into strong support beams. Initially, the machine carefully unrolls a heavy coil of flat steel. Next, metal rollers bend the steel step-by-step. Then, it punches holes if the design needs them. Finally, it cuts the finished metal to the exact length. Because the machine does all of this automatically, factories can make parts perfectly and quickly.

⚙️ What Does This Machine Make?

Strut Channel is a standard cold roll formed steel used in electrical industry or constructions for structural support. Which is usually formed from metal coil strips, roll formed into an open channel section with lips to provide additional stiffness. The basis strut channel sizes are: 41*41. 21*21, and also some customized shapes. More information of Strut Channel, please visit Wiki.

Believe Industry Company Strut Channel Roll Forming Machine is to form 1.5mm-3.0mm strut channels with various types. The machine is able to produce 3 or more types of strut channel by adjust the roll forming mould. We have 2 design of the adjust method:

Adjust the spacers to achieve the type changing. The workers need adjust all the spaces of top and bottom rollers. the change over time is at least 6-8 hours.

Replace the whole roll forming mill. The roll forming mill will fastened on a mill base, and easy to replace. The changeover time is within 2 hour. View more.

🏭 Punching Methods for Strut Channel Roll Forming Machines

💧 1. Hydraulic Punch

🛠️ Overview: A cost-effective solution featuring easily interchangeable molds for varying hole patterns.
⏱️ Speed: 3–5 m/min (can be increased by adding a hydraulic accumulator).
🎯 Best For: Budget-conscious operations where production speed is a secondary priority.

🔄 2. Rotary Punching

⚙️ Overview: A strip-driven, dual-roll system synchronized with the roll forming mill.
⚡ Speed: Up to 30 m/min.
✅ Pros: Less expensive than mechanical presses, runs at high roll forming speeds, and repeatedly produces patterns within tight tolerances.
❌ Cons: Fixed hole positions; requires a complete roller change to alter the hole pattern.

🏆 3. Mechanical Punch Press (Recommended)

🎯 Overview: The optimal choice for high-speed, precision punching with varying hole patterns and positions. It utilizes a servo-feed system and limit switches to synchronize perfectly with the uncoiler, leveler, and mill.
🚀 Speed: 20+ m/min.
📊 Key Specifications:
- 🏗️ Press Capacity: 110 Ton (Main Motor: 11KW x 4)
