2025-03-15 12:00

Definition of light gauge frame machine


LGS machine, or Light Gauge Frame Machine, is an advanced equipment for manufacturing light steel structures. By placing metal coils into the light gauge steel frame making machine, after a series of process steps, including uncoiling, leveling, punching, forming, coding, cutting, etc., different types and sizes of finished products, such as C-type, U-type and top hat, are finally produced. These finished products are widely used in building structures such as houses, walls and floors.

With the increasing demand for light steel structures in the construction industry, light gauge steel frame machines have become an indispensable equipment in modern construction. Its efficient production process and flexible product design make light gauge steel frame making machines widely used in the construction industry.

 

Main workflow of light gauge steel frame machine

● Uncoiling

In the first step of production, the metal coil is placed in the decoiler for flattening. The purpose of this step is to flatten the curled state of the coil to prepare for subsequent processing. The decoiler needs to have good stability and precision to ensure that the coil remains straight throughout the entire processing process.

● Punching

The flattened metal sheet will enter the punching stage. In this step, the machine will punch the required holes on the sheet according to the set drawings and parameters. The accuracy of this process directly affects the quality of subsequent forming and assembly.

● Forming

After the punching is completed, the metal sheet will enter the forming stage. At this time, the machine will process the metal sheet into the required C-type, U-type or other shapes through different molds and processes. Pressure and temperature control during the forming process is crucial to ensure the strength and stability of the finished product.

Cutting

After the coding is completed, the finished product will enter the cutting stage. The machine will cut the finished product into specified lengths according to customer needs. This process requires a high degree of precision to ensure that the size of each component meets the requirements.


Market demand for light gauge steel frame machine


The market demand for light gauge steel frame making machines is gradually increasing, especially in the following situations, its demand is particularly obvious:

 

1. Adding floors and renovating old houses

 

With the acceleration of urbanization, many old houses need to be added and renovated. The light steel components produced by light gauge frame machines are ideal for adding floors to old houses because of their lightness and high strength.

 

2. Areas with building material shortages

 

In some areas where building materials are scarce, light gauge steel frame making machines can quickly produce the required components, solving the problem of insufficient supply of building materials. This flexible production method greatly facilitates the development of construction projects.
