Light Gauge Steel Machine LG-10

Step 1. Vertex BD Design Software

Construction design through Vertex BD design software, design data NC output to production software

Step 2. HBS LGS Production System

Input design data from Vertex BD NC output. Self-develop HBS LGS Production system Controls the production equipment and refine the frame structure

Vertex BD software Design

Step 3. HBS Machine

The PLC panel is able to make clear to each component production current process. It can timely reproduce any failed products resulted from any reasons in the production process

Step 4. Assembly

Different components have independent inkjet coding. Assembly as per the drawing from Vertex BD software.

LGS Production System with Two Features：

Feature 1. Material Saving:

With the output code of Vertex software, there is always an inevitable material waste of 45-50mm when it comes to one part with chamfer cut or with flat cut, such wastage can amazingly reach 1.7-2.1%. Based on above calculation, a yearly production of 5000 Tonapproximate will generate 100 tons wastes. However, in view of this situation, HBS LGS production system has made a serials optimization, which minimizes the wastage to a minimum. (See below photos for reference)

                                                              Traditional wastes material between each pieces

                                                    HBS Equipment controlled the waste to a minimum

Feature 2. No Jammedon Machine: 

In many cases, when it comes to large door and windows(pic.1 red circle part), there is a special design on the header, Crip stud or Jack stud. To ensure the structure intensity, the designer would normally design the column parts into groups like pic.2.  Such structure component parts are rather easy to jam the machine. It might take at least 1 hours to debug machine with askillful operator. The roller space has to be readjusted after the debug, otherwise it may bring severe damage like Shafter breaking, Roller crushing etc. Sheet are wasted again during the machine readjusting.

HBShas invested capital & resource in improving LGS equipment especially on the roll forming station & Shearing station, to make sure machine won’t get jammed while producing special columns.
