Hat Profile Omega Furring Roll Forming Machine for Ceiling Grid And Drywall Metal Furring

Today, with the accelerated popularization of prefabricated buildings and green residences, light steel keel serves as the core skeleton of wall and ceiling systems. Its forming accuracy and production efficiency directly determine the flatness, fire resistance, and sound insulation performance of buildings. The Hat Profile Omega Furring Roll Forming Machine, as the core equipment for producing Hat Profile and Omega Furring, is redefining the production standards of light steel keel with its military grade manufacturing process and highly intelligent control system, helping building material manufacturers and construction enterprises achieve a dual leap in production capacity and quality.

What is Hat Profile Omega Furring Roll Forming Machine?

The Hat Profile Omega Furring Roll Forming Machine is a professional cold bending equipment that continuously processes cold-rolled galvanized steel strips into high-strength light steel keels with "Ω" - shaped or hat shaped cross-sections through processes such as unwinding, leveling, multi pass cold bending, online punching, and hydraulic shearing.

The standard production process is: uncoiling → feeding guidance → leveling → roll forming → online punching → hydraulic shearing → finished product output. The entire production line is coordinated by a PLC control system, and operators can set parameters such as sheet length, production quantity, punching position, etc. through a touch screen to achieve intelligent production management.

Core Advantages：

1、 High precision molding, stable quality
The equipment adopts Cr12MoV die steel forging rollers, which have undergone vacuum heat treatment and precision grinding to achieve a hardness of HRC60-62. Combined with 12-24 progressive cold bending processes, it ensures the accuracy of the cross-sectional dimensions and surface quality of the finished keel. The transition accuracy between the flange and web plate of the hat shaped keel can be controlled within ± 0.2mm. The surface of the finished keel is smooth without burrs, the edges are flat, and the angles are precise. It can achieve "LEGO style" quick splicing and installation, greatly reducing on-site cutting and adjustment operations.

2、 High speed production, doubled efficiency
The equipment adopts a gearbox transmission system, coupled with high-performance motors. The standard production speed can reach 0-20 meters/minute, and the high-performance version can even reach 40-70 meters/minute, greatly improving production capacity while ensuring molding quality. In fully automatic operation mode, only one operator is needed to manage the entire production line, which can increase production efficiency by more than three times compared to traditional manual operation mode.

3、 Online punching and intelligent sizing
The equipment supports high-speed rotary punching or hydraulic punching, which can synchronously complete the hole and slot processing on the keel during the forming process, reducing secondary processing steps and improving overall production efficiency. The fixed length cutting adopts a hydraulic or servo tracking cutting system, with a smooth and burr free cut and no damage to the cross-sectional shape of the keel. The cutting tolerance can be controlled within ± 1mm.

4、 Flexible customization, widely adaptable
The equipment supports processing various metal coils with a thickness of 0.4-0.8mm, including galvanized sheet (GI), pre coated color coated sheet (PPGI), cold-rolled steel (CRS), and aluminum plate. We can customize roll molds and forming passes according to customer needs, and produce various cross-sectional specifications such as hat shaped keels, Omega keels, U-shaped keels, L-shaped keels, etc. The servo drive system supports one click switching of product specifications, reducing the switching time from several hours to a few minutes, adapting to the flexible production needs of small and multiple batches.

5、 Durable and sturdy structure
The formed main frame adopts high-quality steel welding structure, which is processed by stress relief annealing and precision machining to effectively prevent deformation of the body during long-term use. The roller shaft is made of high-quality 45 # steel and supported by a double bearing structure to ensure stable output under high-intensity continuous operation.

Application Areas：

• Ceiling System

The most common application of Omega keel is in ceiling systems. The keel produced by the equipment provides a sturdy and flat frame for the ceiling keel, ensuring quick installation, precise alignment, and long-term stability. These keels are widely used in ceiling systems for office buildings, schools, hospitals, and retail spaces, reliably supporting ceiling panels and integrated lighting facilities.

• Wall frame and leveling

Hat shaped keels and Omega keels are widely used for wall frames and wall leveling. After installation on concrete, masonry, or uneven walls, they can create a sturdy and flat base surface, providing a clean installation foundation for dry hanging gypsum boards and wall panels. These keels can also provide space for wiring, insulation, and pipelines, making them very suitable for new construction and renovation projects.

• Light steel villas and prefabricated buildings

In light steel villas, hat shaped keels serve as wall columns, roof purlins, and floor beams, supporting two to three story light steel villas with extremely high bending strength, achieving "flexible structure, rigid protection" and excellent seismic performance.

• Exterior wall system

Keels are widely used in exterior wall systems, and after installation on masonry or concrete, they can create sturdy ventilation sub frames for curtain wall and facade panel installations, helping to level uneven surfaces, improve fastening strength, and provide consistent air gaps for drainage and ventilation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)：

Q1: What types of keels can this device produce?

The standard configuration can produce two types of cross-sections: Hat Profile and Omega Furring. We can also customize and produce various cross-sectional specifications such as U-shaped keels, L-shaped keels, wall corner keels, C-shaped keels, etc. according to customer needs. We can design customized rolling mill molds for customers by providing plate drawings or samples.

Q2: How to ensure the forming accuracy of the equipment?

Precision assurance comes from three aspects: the rolling mill is forged with Cr12MoV die steel, and after vacuum heat treatment and precision grinding, the hardness reaches HRC60-62, ensuring accurate forming contours; The PLC closed-loop control system, in conjunction with the encoder, provides real-time feedback on position information, achieving a punching accuracy of ± 0.2mm; the hydraulic or servo tracking shear system achieves a cutting tolerance of ± 1mm.

Q3: Does the device support online punching?

Support. The equipment can be equipped with high-speed rotary punching or hydraulic punching systems to synchronously complete the hole and slot processing on the keel during the forming process. The punching position accuracy is high, reducing secondary processing steps and improving overall production efficiency.

Q4: What voltage and power standards does the device support?

The equipment can be customized with voltage configuration according to the power grid standards of the customer's country, supporting different voltages such as 220V, 380V, 415V, 440V, etc. The frequency can be selected as 50Hz or 60Hz, and it is a three-phase power supply. The control system supports multiple language operation interfaces such as English and Chinese.
