Large Span Cable Tray Roll Forming Machine 100-800mm
Large span cable tray roll forming machine 100-800mm makes wide steel cable trays up to 800 mm wide, 200 mm high, 2.5 mm thick and 10 m long in one automatic pass. With a 42 m gantry line, 10-tonne decoiler, 12-roller leveling, 26-pass forming on a φ80 mm shaft and full PLC control, it’s built for high-volume large-section tray production.
Large span cable tray roll forming machine 100-800mm is built for manufacturers who need to roll genuinely wide, deep and long cable trays in one continuous, automatic pass. It produces steel trays from 100 mm up to 800 mm base width, 50–200 mm side height, in thicknesses of 0.5–2.5 mm, and in workpiece lengths up to 10,000 mm — the widest, tallest and longest format in the series. A 42-metre gantry through-shaft line, 10-tonne decoiler, 12-roller leveling and full PLC control make it the right choice for high-volume, large-section tray production.
A Machine Sized for Large-Section Trays
Most tray lines top out around 600 mm. This one is engineered from the coil up for the large-span end of the market — power distribution backbones, data-centre cable highways, tunnels and heavy industrial routing where trays must be wide and rigid. The φ80 mm main shaft, forged HRC58-62 rollers and twin 7.5 kW forming drives give the line the torque and stiffness to push 2.5 mm galvanized steel at 800 mm width without profile distortion.
Five Things That Set This Line Apart
- Widest format in the range — base width fully adjustable from 100 to 800 mm, side height 50 to 200 mm.
- Long-part capability — single workpieces up to 10 metres, ideal for long straight tray runs with fewer joints.
- 10-tonne powered decoiler — handles heavy master coils up to φ1500 mm outer diameter for long, uninterrupted runs.
- Seven-shaped buckle punching + optional marking — two-station hydraulic punching forms connection holes inline; optional 0.5–1.5 mm character marking.
- PLC line control with remote panel — touchscreen HMI, programmable part length, manual/auto switchover, full-line e-stop and a remote operator panel for floor-side control.
How a Coil Becomes a Finished Tray
The line follows a logical left-in / right-out flow, with leveling, punching and cutting completed before the strip enters the 26-pass forming mill:
Powered decoiling → 12-roller leveling → tray-hole punching → cutting → conveying → connection-hole punching / marking → conveying → 26-pass roll forming → run-out
Each stage is servo- or hydraulically driven and monitored through the PLC, so length, hole position and cut-off stay consistent across an entire shift.

Hydraulic Station — multi-bank solenoid valves, relief valve, cooling system, 7.5 kW × 2, 450 L tank.
Smart PLC Control & Safety
The whole line runs under PLC control with a touchscreen HMI. Operators set part length digitally, switch between manual (single-machine, for maintenance) and automatic (full-line sequential start) modes, and monitor running status, parameters and fault indication in real time. A remote operator panel lets staff control the line from the floor, and full-line emergency-stop buttons protect both equipment and operators.

Where It’s Used
Large-span trays from this line carry heavy bundled cabling in power distribution rooms, data centres, tunnels, metro and rail, petrochemical plants, and large industrial facilities — anywhere routing demands wide, deep, rigid trays in long runs.
Buyer’s Questions
How wide and how thick can it really go?
Up to 800 mm base width, 200 mm side height and 2.5 mm galvanized or Q235 cold-rolled steel — comfortably above standard 600 mm lines.
Can it make long trays in one piece?
Yes. Workpiece length is programmable from 2000 to 10,000 mm, so you can produce long straight runs with fewer connection joints.
What standards does it conform to?
The line is built to CECS31:2006, GB/T6725-2002, GB/T6728, GB6723-86 and related cold-formed steel standards.
What is the production speed?
8–16 m/min, including inline connection-hole punching (actual speed depends on part length and hole count).
What power and footprint should I plan for?
380V / 50Hz / 3-phase, approx. 65 KW installed, with a 42 × 2.5 × 1.5 m footprint and left-in / right-out flow.
What is the warranty?
12 months from acceptance, with 2-hour response support and long-term spare-parts supply after the warranty period.
