Written by The FRAMECAD Team | Feb 19, 2020 10:45:14 PM

The FRAMECAD ST950H is a heavy-duty multi-profile system offering fast, efficient, automated production and flexible profile output.

For companies seeking unprecedented productivity and manufacturing capability, we’re excited to announce the release of the FRAMECAD ST950H multi-profile solution.

With heavy duty gauge capacity up to 97mils (2.5mm or 12 gauge) this robust system is ideal for the manufacture of load-bearing wall frames, wide spanning roof trusses or long spanning floor joists. Perfect for large scale production of load-bearing, mid-rise cold formed steel projects.

With 20 adjustable roll forming stations and up to 15 adjustable punch stations built in, the ST950H offers everything you could want for versatile production of high-quality walls, trusses, joists and façades. No other system provides this level of versatility for multi-profile construction across industrial, commercial and residential applications.
