Zhongtuo Advanced Multi-Size Adjustable Slotted Strut Channel Roll Forming Machine ZTRFM Strut Channel Making Machine

The Advanced Slotted Strut Channel Roll Forming Machine is designed to efficiently manufacture slotted metal channels widely used in solar mounting systems, electrical installations, and structural support frameworks.

By combining high-precision roll forming with automated punching and cutting technologies, the machine delivers consistent profiles with excellent dimensional accuracy. As a result, manufacturers can produce durable strut channels suitable for demanding construction and industrial environments.

Moreover, the equipment adopts a fully automated workflow, which significantly improves production efficiency while reducing labor requirements.

What Is a Slotted Strut Channel?

A slotted strut channel is a cold-formed steel profile commonly used for supporting electrical wiring, pipelines, ventilation ducts, and solar photovoltaic mounting structures.

Typically, the channel features regularly spaced slots or holes that allow flexible installation of bolts, brackets, and connectors.

Because of its versatility and structural strength, this profile is widely used in:

• Solar PV mounting systems
• Electrical cable management systems
• HVAC installations
• Plumbing and pipeline supports
• Industrial equipment frameworks

Common standard sizes include 41×21 mm, 41×41 mm, 41×61 mm, and 41×81 mm. This roll forming machine is capable of producing multiple channel sizes with high precision.

Key Features of the Roll Forming Machine

First of all, the machine integrates roll forming, punching, and cutting operations into a continuous production process. This ensures stable output and reduces manual intervention.

Secondly, the punching unit is installed after the roll forming section, which helps prevent deformation or stretching of the punched holes. The servo-controlled tracking system allows punching and cutting to occur simultaneously while the material keeps moving.

In addition, the equipment uses high-strength Cr12Mov rollers with heat treatment, ensuring excellent wear resistance and a long service life even under high-speed operation.

Another advantage is the dual-motor power system, which provides strong driving force while maintaining energy efficiency.

Flexible Production and Easy Adjustment

One major advantage of this machine is its flexible production capability. Operators can manufacture two different channel sizes using a single machine simply by adjusting the roller spacers manually.

To make the process easier, we provide customers with detailed adjustment drawings and instructional videos, allowing quick setup and profile changeover.

This design helps manufacturers reduce equipment investment while maintaining a flexible production line.

The machine follows a fully integrated production flow to ensure smooth and continuous operation:

Uncoiling → Feeding → Roll Forming → Tracking Punching → Tracking Cutting → Product Collection

Each stage works in coordination with the PLC control system. Consequently, the machine maintains high precision, stable speed, and reliable performance throughout the production process.

Applications of Strut Channel Products

Strut channels produced by this machine are widely used in modern infrastructure projects. Thanks to their strength and installation flexibility, they play an important role in supporting various mechanical and electrical systems.

Typical applications include:

• Solar photovoltaic mounting structures
• Electrical cable tray systems
• HVAC duct supports
• Plumbing and pipe installations
• Industrial building frameworks

Furthermore, in seismic reinforcement systems, strut channels help reduce structural damage and improve safety during earthquakes.
