Steel Framing Manufacturing

Steel Framing Manufacturing Machines

The production of steel studs (also known as C, U, Channels) are made with the use of a cold roll former. These large machines form the steel sheets in to continuous lengths of steel studs. The metal studs are then cut using a post cut shear. This shear cuts the framing stud to a specific length.

Roll Forming Equipment Used In Stud and Track Production

Large scale building sites such as office towers, hospitals and schools often use steel framing as the preferred method to frame interior drywall. This method of framing is often quicker then using traditional wood framing and has a number of built in benefits. These inherent benefits of metal framing systems, such as rote resistance, recyclable, lighter weight and easier to assemble are out lined at benefits of steel framing.

In order to manufacture the volumes of stud and track framing a high quality roll former is a necessity. One of the leaders in the market place is Samco Machinery for building high quality rollformers. There systems are used by the top producers of metal framing systems and are full of advanced features.
