What is a furring channel machine used for?
2025-06-05 12:00Furring channel machine, also known as omega channel machine or hat channel machine, is one of the main channel making machines. They are an important part of the construction industry. And omega channel machine are used to make lightweight, strong and durable metal frames for ceiling systems, partitions and other construction projects. These furring channel machines use a roll forming process to form metal into the required shape and size. This omega channel machine feeds the metal coil into a series of rollers, which are gradually bent and formed into the required shape. The metal is then cut into the required length and can be used in the construction project. Furring channel machines are suitable for processing a variety of metals, including steel, aluminum and copper. Usually, omega channel machines are also used in conjunction with U channel machines and wall angle profile machines to form a complete false ceiling channel system. |  |
