Top Hat Channel Roll Forming Machine：Omega Furring Purlin Making Line

Description:Zhongtuo top hat channel roll forming machine makes precision hat shape / omega furring channels from galvanized steel. Optional pre-punching, hydraulic flying cut, for ceiling, drywall, roof and solar support framing. Contact us for drawing and quote.

A top hat channel roll forming machine, also known as omega furring channel forming machine, is a dedicated cold roll forming line that converts galvanized steel coil, PPGI or light carbon steel strip into hat-shaped metal profiles. Different from C purlin and Z purlin machines, the top hat (omega) section features a flat top surface with two outward bent flanges, which delivers excellent stiffness while remaining lightweight. It is widely favored for interior ceiling furring, drywall partitions, wall cladding supports and light roof secondary framing projects.

Our Zhongtuo hat channel roll former adopts heavy welded stress-relieved frame and mature PLC + touchscreen control system. Operators can set target length, running speed and punching parameters directly on the HMI. Servo feeding guarantees stable material advance, while hydraulic flying shear provides clean, low-burr cutting ends. Motorized size adjustment model is available for fast switching among different hat channel sizes without replacing rollers frequently.

Why Choose Our Omega Hat Channel Forming Line?

Lightweight and high rigidity is the biggest advantage of hat channel profiles. If your factory supplies metal framing for interior decoration, modular buildings or solar mounting sub-structures, this dedicated top hat machine will bring stable batch quality and higher yield rate.

Finished hat furring channels have uniform flatness and hole spacing, making screw installation much easier on construction sites. The whole line is designed for continuous long-shift production, suitable for small and medium metal profile factories with steady orders of ceiling keels and furring battens.

We supply complete after-sales service: English operation manual, remote video debugging, overseas engineer commissioning on request, operator training and lifetime technical consultation. Spare parts can be shipped globally with short lead time.

Application of Top Hat / Omega Furring Channels

Top hat furring channels are widely used in light construction and decoration sectors:

Suspended ceiling furring, drywall partition framing, interior wall battens

Metal wall cladding support, facade substructure

Light steel villa, prefab house and modular building secondary framing

Low-profile roof purlins for metal roofing panels

Solar panel mounting brackets and small load support frames

Clean room, office partition and commercial interior decoration projects
