Multi-Purpose System: Frames, Trusses, Panels (75 to 200mm / 3" to 8" Sections)
For ultimate flexibility, the Howick FRAMA™ 7600 is a convertible profile frame and truss system. With our unique end-bearing stud detail for true load-bearing frames, plus our swage and dimple details for smooth intersections, this machine is convertible to up to 5 different framing sizes for a range of construction needs.
With the FRAMA™ 7600 in your armoury, you are equipped to produce a single profile size and add additional tooling for alternative profile options as needed.
Our convertible design overcomes many of the traditional compromises that go with making multiple sections with adjustable tooling. It is compact too, which reduces wastage and improves accuracy. As well as the potential to add tooling for additional widths, if your production requirements increase you can simply add another base unit and use your existing tooling for multiple line runs. It offers a gauge range of 0.95 to 1.55 (20 to 16 gauge), and a production speed of up to 800m/2624ft per hour.
The FRAMA™ 7600 includes Howick's unique end-bearing stud detail for true load-bearing frames and Howick's swage and dimple details for smooth intersections. The FRAMA™ 7600 machine is convertible up to 5 framing sizes.
With the unique design of the FRAMA™ 7600 machine you can produce a single profile size and add additional tooling sets for remaining profile options as/or when needed, without the cost and complication of a multiple profile roll-former.
Howick's convertible machine design overcomes many of the compromises that go with making multiple sections with adjustable tooling. The compact design of FRAMA™ 7600 means less material wastage when changing section width, and higher product accuracy. Convertible design ethos means you can add tooling for additional widths as required. If your production requirements increase, you can buy another base unit and use your existing tooling to run multiple profiles from one machine.
The machine operation is taken from Howick's proven reliable design concepts to minimise down time and maximise production.
