Metal Stud and Track Roll Forming Machine

The Stud and Track Roll Forming Machine is an automated equipment specifically designed for the continuous roll forming of light gauge steel studs and tracks used in construction. Here, “Stud” refers to vertical studs, and “Track” refers to horizontal tracks (or floor tracks). This equipment is widely applied in prefabricated buildings, light steel villas, interior partitions, and other scenarios. Its core function is to gradually shape cold-rolled steel strips through multiple sets of rollers, ultimately forming keel profiles with specific cross-sections (such as C-type, U-type, channel-type, etc.) to meet structural needs like wall load-bearing and frame fixing.

Introduction to the Metal Stud and Track System:
The metal stud and track system is a modern alternative to traditional wood framing, consisting of light-gauge steel components. Designed for both residential and commercial construction, it serves as the framework for walls, ceilings, and drywall partitions, offering durability and versatility.
Main Specification of the stud and track machine:
1 Material: Aluminum / CR Coil
2 Material thickness Galvanized coil: 0.5-0.9mm
3 Stud and track size Width: 50-150mm, Height: 35-50mm
4 Speed 120 m/min
5 Roller material Cr12mov
6 Cut blade material Cr12mov steel
7 PLC Control, HMI Operation
8 Power supply ,220v 50Hz, 3 Phase, Customized

The production process of the metal stud and track roll forming machine:

Decoiler with leveling → Roll forming main machine →  Hydraulic cut-off →  Run-out table
Main Components of Stud and Track Equipment:
Decoiler
3 Ton hydraulic decoiler
Roll Forming Main Machine
  • 14 groups of rollers
  • Independent Archway structure
  • Forming rollers: Cr12 mov steel, HRC 58-60°
  • Main shaft material: 40Cr mold steel ,φ45mm
  • Driven method: Motor coupled with reducer; worm gear reducers drive the rollers (one reducer per roller set)
  • Speed: 80m/min, with punches-50m/min
  • Hydraulic Cut-off System
Hydraulic cut-off :
  • Cutting without stopping the machine or speed deceleration
  • Air cooling / Water cooling
  • shearing tolerance: +/-1.0mm
Control System:
  • Frequency conversion speed regulation controls the main drive motor.
  • Dual-axis chasing shear controller
  • PLC centralized control.
  • Input length/quantity via color touchscreen;
  • Rotary encoder controls the length for non-stop automatic punching/shearing
Key Components of the Metal stud and track system?
  • Metal Studs: Vertical steel frames crafted from thin-gauge galvanized steel, available in various widths (e.g., 50mm, 60mm, 75mm, 89mm, 102mm, 140mm, 152mm) and lengths. They form the primary vertical support for wall structures.
  • Tracks: Horizontal steel frames, also made from galvanized steel, installed along floors and ceilings. They anchor the studs, stabilizing the entire wall framework and ensuring structural integrity.
  • Fasteners: Self-tapping screws are used to secure studs to tracks and attach other building materials (e.g., drywall), ensuring a tight, reliable connection.
  • Insulations: Added to enhance thermal efficiency and soundproofing, these materials improve the system’s performance in regulating temperature and reducing noise transmission.
Why Choose the Metal Stud and Track System?
  • Superior Strength and Durability: Metal studs offer exceptional structural strength, resisting warping, shrinking, and damage from impacts or environmental stressors. This sturdiness ensures long-term framework stability, even in harsh conditions.
  • Dimensional Stability: Crafted from galvanized steel, the system is impervious to temperature and humidity fluctuations—unlike wood, it won’t expand, contract, or warp. This consistency preserves the building’s structural integrity over time.
  • Lightweight Advantage: With a material weight of approximately 25–35kg per square meter, the system is significantly lighter than traditional alternatives. For example, a 200-square-meter house typically requires only 5–7 tons of material, depending on design, reducing structural load and simplifying installation.
  • Efficiency and Cost-Effectiveness: Produced using cold roll forming machines, metal studs and tracks can be manufactured at speeds of 50–80 meters per minute (or faster), enabling high-volume, low-cost production. This efficiency translates to quicker project timelines and reduced labor expenses.
  • Environmental Benefits: Steel is fully recyclable, making the system a sustainable choice that minimizes waste and lowers the carbon footprint of construction projects
