Dedicated Frames, Trusses, Panels (18 Gauge / 1.2mm)
FRAMA™ 3200
The go-to Howick workhorse for standard framing requirements, the FRAMA™ 3200 is a dedicated frame and truss component manufacturing machine. Producing up to 900m/2952ft of framing per hour, it is designed for a gauge range of 0.75 to 1.15mm/22 to 18 gauge, making it ideal for many residential and commercial applications.
The machine features Howick’s unique end-bearing stud detail for production of load bearing frames. The Howick swage and dimple design allows for smooth joints, so wall linings can sit flush to the framing. Internet connectivity allows for remote access for fault finding and maintenance.
