If you spend time around drywall plants (I do), you quickly notice which lines keep humming. This one does. It runs at 40 m/min forming speed, with punching around 25 m/min, and—surprisingly—changeovers are fast thanks to manual spacers. Not glamorous, but brutally effective.
Contractors want consistent studs, tracks, omegas, and wall angles—fast. Plants want fewer setups. The Popular 40m/min Drywall Roll Forming Machine hits that middle ground: multi-profile output (main channel, furring channel, stud & track, omega, wall angle) and one machine handling multiple sizes by adjusting spacer settings. Many customers say it’s “boringly reliable”—which is the best compliment in production.
| Line speed | ≈40 m/min forming; punching ≈25 m/min |
| Material | GI/GL/PPGI, 0.3–0.8 mm, yield 235–550 MPa |
| Profiles | Main/furring channel, stud & track, omega, wall angle |
| Changeover | Manual spacer adjustment, around 10–25 min per size (operator-dependent) |
| Roller/shaft | GCr15 rollers HRC 58–62; 45# steel shafts |
| Controls | PLC + HMI; servo feeding; encoder length control |
| Cutting | Hydraulic post-cut; burr control ≤0.05 mm (typ.) |
| Tolerance | Profile width ±0.2 mm in stabilized runs (may vary) |
| Service life | ≈8–12 years with standard maintenance |
Decoiler → Leveling → Servo Feeder → Pre-punching → Roll Forming → Post-cut → Runout table → Inline QC. Materials typically comply with EN 10346 or equivalent. Plants I visited run salt-spray validations (ASTM B117) on coated coils and random length checks every 30–60 minutes. Noise stays under ~75 dB in most enclosures. Tension straightening helps when coil crown varies—handy on budget coils.
Commercial interiors, residential framing, data center fit-outs, modular housing, and OEM kit suppliers. The Popular 40m/min Drywall Roll Forming Machine especially shines in mixed-order environments where production switches between 50/75/100 mm studs and matching tracks.
| Vendor | Speed | Changeover | Support | Typical Lead Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| YingYee | ≈40 m/min | Manual spacers (10–25 min) | Remote + on-site, good spares stock | 6–10 weeks |
| Vendor A | 30–35 m/min | Shim packs (20–35 min) | Email-only | 10–14 weeks |
| Vendor B | 45 m/min | Motorized spacers (≈5–10 min) | Premium, pricier | 12–16 weeks |
Profiles: stud 50/75/100 mm; track 51/76/102 mm (others on request). Punch tools for service holes/knockouts. Coil widths tailored per profile. PLC brands can be specified. I guess the sweet spot is GI 0.5–0.6 mm for cost/rigidity balance.
A mid-size Middle East fabricator moved from three small lines to one Popular 40m/min Drywall Roll Forming Machine. After a week of dialing in feeder parameters, they logged a 6-hour continuous run at nominal 40 m/min with ±0.2 mm width variance and reject rate under 0.8%. Operators liked the spacer system—“less fiddly than shims.”
Typical factory certifications: ISO 9001; CE per the Machinery Directive. Materials commonly conform to EN 10346; framing products often reference ASTM C645 in export markets. Origin: Room B1106, Zhongliang Plaza, No.345 Youyi North Street, Xinhua District, Shijiazhuang, Hebei.
