Flexible Ladder Type Tray Roll Forming Machine With Gearbox Drive System

These introductions refer only to the production line and configuration shown in the main image. Each machine is custom-built. Metalign welcomes your inquiry and provides the right production line—forming metal into profiles aligned to your needs.

1. Production Line Overview

• A versatile roll forming solution designed for cable tray manufacturers, electrical system integrators, and panel system fabricators. Ideal for clients seeking flexibility, precision, and space-saving dual-profile capability.

2. Profile Description

• Formed from galvanized steel with 1.0–1.5mm thickness, this ladder-type cable tray features punched slots for mounting and ventilation. Widely used in electrical cable routing and industrial facility installations.

3. Production Process

• Manual Decoiler → Leveling Machine → Servo Feeder → Hydraulic Punching Machine → Guide → Roll Former → Flying Hydraulic Cutter → Out Table

• The process begins with decoiling and leveling, followed by servo feeding into a hydraulic punching unit for pre-punched holes. The double-row guiding system aligns the strip into a gear-box driven roll former with dual sets of forming tools. The tracking cutter then accurately shears the formed trays according to length.

4. Technical Parameters

5. Key Focus

• Dual-row forming structure allows flexible tooling on both sides.
• Punching before forming improves precision and minimizes deformation.
• Flying cutter ensures clean, synchronized cuts at high speed.
• Ideal for cable tray producers needing quick profile switchovers.
• Compact and efficient line layout for space-saving production.

6. Production Line Components

7. Customization Options

• This line supports custom tray widths, punch designs, and forming tool sets per customer drawings. Dual-row tooling can be configured for different ladder tray models. Hydraulic punching station and cutter can be adapted for various slot shapes and cut lengths. Optional automation like automatic stackers available.
