LGS Stud & Track Roll Forming Machine – Drywall & Light Steel Framing
Light-gauge steel C-stud and U-track roll forming machines for 0.4-1.5 mm galvanized strip (50-150 mm web widths). In-line service hole punching, dimpling, flying shear & motorized width sizing.
APPLICATION & EQUIPMENT
Define the product you need to sell.
Light-gauge framing equipment is specified from the stud and track drawings: web size, flange, return, thickness band, cut lengths and any service holes, dimples or knurling. Ceiling T-bars and shutter slats are separate families unless the same offer lists them. Reviewed workshop photographs of roll-stand adjustment hardware and forming stands are general shop views. They are not photographs of a named stud-and-track model.
Typical applications
- Drywall studs and tracks
- Light-gauge steel framing members
- Related interior channels when included in the same brief
Decisions to make early
- Stud and track usually share a family but not always the same cutoff die.
- In-line holes must be dimensioned before stand layout.
- Ceiling grids and shutter slats need their own tooling discussion.
YOUR SPECIFICATION BRIEF
Five inputs for a useful quotation.
Share the details you have. If a dimension or requirement is undecided, describe the intended finished product.
| Project item | What to include |
|---|---|
| Stud and track drawings | Web, flange, return, lip and any dimple or knurl pattern. |
| Coil specification | Galvanized grade, thickness range and strip width. |
| In-line operations | Service holes, knockout size, spacing and whether dimpling is required. |
| Output mix | Member lengths, stud versus track share, and packing or bundling method. |
| Workshop | Line speed discussion, cutoff method, noise and stacking space. |
Speed, power, tooling, tolerances and control components belong in the agreed machine specification. They are not fixed across this equipment category.
ENGINEERING REFERENCE PARAMETERS
Engineering discussion ranges — confirmed per project
The following engineering baseline reflects measured workshop machine parameters and tooling standards. These figures are category references, not a fixed machine specification.
| Engineering Subsystem | Design Range & Workshop Baseline |
|---|---|
| Section Discussion Range | Light-gauge studs and tracks, and related furring or channel sections when listed. Web sizes commonly discussed for interior framing sit in a light structural band taken from the buyer drawing rather than from a catalog model name. |
| Material & Thickness Baseline | Engineering discussion range commonly covers galvanized light steel around 0.4 to 1.5 mm. Higher-strength coil and non-standard coatings are confirmed per signed project. |
| In-line Operations Baseline | Service holes, knockouts and dimples may be added in line. Station count, tool life discussion and whether stud and track share punches are workshop baseline items until the drawings are fixed. |
| Forming & Cutoff Baseline | Stand count is usually lower than heavy purlin equipment, but cutoff cycle and bundling dominate usable output. Flying or stop-cut shears are selected from length mix and measurement method. |
| Line Speed Discussion Range | Forming discussion often sits around 20 to 40 meters per minute for simple studs before hole punching and bundling. Finished pieces per shift must include those operations and changeover between stud and track. |
| Electrical & Destination Requirements | Drive motors carry CE attestation (Certificate M.2023.206.C82549) under EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and EMC Directive 2014/30/EU, verified by UDEM International through March 2028. Controls, counting, language and guarding are matched in the offer. |
SPECIFICATION BOUNDARY
Specifications on this page are either verified brochure baselines or engineering discussion ranges. Final line layout, drive sizing, roll-stand count, tooling material, tolerances and acceptance criteria are confirmed in your signed project offer — they are not fixed by this page. Workshop photos and video show general shop arrangements and mechanical motion; they are not images of a named, quoted machine model.

Common buying questions.
Can one machine produce both C-stud and U-track profiles in multiple widths?
Yes, our light gauge framing machines feature motorized width adjustment covering 50 mm to 150 mm web widths. The PLC automatically repositions the forming rolls to switch between C-studs with lips and U-tracks without lips in just 2 to 3 minutes via the touchscreen.
Are service holes and dimpling recesses punched in-line automatically?
Yes, synchronized high-speed hydraulic punching units create electrical pass-through holes, plumbing knockouts, and countersunk screw dimples in-line. The industrial controller coordinates hole spacing directly from architectural framing cut lists.
What is the maximum operating speed of the LGS stud and track line?
Standard production speed reaches 30 to 50 meters per minute for light gauge galvanized profiles from 0.4 mm to 1.2 mm thickness. The system features a synchronized flying shear that cuts profiles on the fly without stopping continuous roll forming motion.
How is the machine packed and loaded into containers?
The machine body is protected with anti-rust oil, wrapped in waterproof film and shock-absorbent foam, and securely braced inside 20GP or 40HQ containers. Sensitive PLC control cabinets and hydraulic pump stations are packed in seaworthy wooden crates.
What is the typical lead time for this machine?
Typical fabrication lead time commonly ranges from 30 to 60 working days after receipt of the deposit and formal sign-off on tooling profile drawings. Multi-profile configurations or custom electrical specifications are scheduled per project agreement.
What after-sales support do you provide?
We provide technical assistance including remote video troubleshooting, rapid express delivery of spare parts, and on-site engineer dispatch for commissioning or repairs where agreed in the project contract.
What spare parts are included with the machine?
Each line ships with a standard wearable parts kit including limit switches, relay fuses, hydraulic seals, and adjusting tools. Custom spare packages including profile shear blades and punch die inserts are quoted per project requirements.
Can you customize the voltage for my country?
Yes, all drive motors and electrical cabinets are customized to match your local industrial grid, such as 380V, 415V, 440V, or 220V 3-phase at 50Hz or 60Hz. We configure industrial electrical components from recognized suppliers with proper thermal overloads to ensure stable operation.
Do you provide installation and commissioning service?
We provide comprehensive step-by-step video manuals and remote video technical support for machine setup and trial runs. On-site engineer dispatch for commissioning and operator training is available upon request and confirmed in the sales agreement.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Our minimum order quantity is 1 set. Whether you are starting a new fabrication workshop or adding a specialized line to an existing plant, we design, test, and ship complete custom roll forming lines with full technical documentation for single-machine orders.
What payment terms do you accept?
We accept T/T with a 30% advance deposit upon contract signing and 70% balance payment after factory trial acceptance and prior to sea shipment. Irrevocable letters of credit (L/C at sight) are also accepted upon mutual financial agreement.
