Hat Channel Roll Forming Machine – Automatic Metal Furring & Hat Purlin Forming Line
The Hat Channel Roll Forming Machine (also called hat purlin forming machine or metal furring channel roll former) is a fully automatic production line designed to continuously form galvanized steel or pre-painted coils into hat-shaped metal profiles. These hat channels are widely used as ceiling furring channels, drywall partition studs, roof purlins, and light-gauge steel framing supports in commercial and residential construction.
Compared with manual cutting and bending, our hat profile roll forming line delivers higher output speed, tighter dimensional tolerance (±0.2mm), and significantly reduced material waste—making it the preferred solution for steel framing manufacturers and building material distributors worldwide.
Key Features & Benefits
High-Speed Production：Line speed up to 15–40 m/min (optional servo flying cut for non-stop cutting), meeting large-volume daily output requirements.
Precision Forming：CNC-ground Cr12MoV / GCr15 rollers ensure consistent hat section geometry and straightness.
Flexible Customization：Adjustable roller sets to produce different hat channel sizes (flange height 20–50mm, web width 50–150mm+) per your profile drawing.
Smart PLC Control：Siemens/Mitsubishi PLC with touch screen HMI, auto length setting, batch counting, and fault diagnosis.
Optional In-line Punching：Hydraulic or servo punch unit for web/flange holes, reducing secondary processing.
Robust Construction：Heavy-duty welded frame with quenched & tempered transmission shafts for 24/7 continuous operation.
Typical Applications of Hat Channels

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can one machine produce different hat channel sizes?
A: Yes. By changing or adjusting rollers, our machine can form multiple hat profiles. For drastically different widths/heights, we recommend a quick-change cassette type.
Q: Do you provide profile drawings for confirmation?
A: Absolutely. We will design roller layout and send you the CAD profile drawing for approval before production.
Q: What after-sales service do you offer?
A: 12-month warranty, free spare parts in the first container, English manual & setup video, plus online support via WhatsApp/Zoom.
Q: How long is the production lead time?
A: Normally 30–45 working days after deposit received and drawing confirmed.
