Ductformer Model CR-8-CF-DH Cleat Edge Former is designed to form the drive cleat flange on both ends of the Duct in a single pass through operation. The system can be incorporated into any existing Duct Fabrication System to produce 4’ and 5’ L-shape or Full Wrapper Duct.

Built with the quality and integrity of all our standard Rollformers, the system features an all gear drive, direct oil bath gear reduction and sealed (lube for life) bearings to provide the smoothest, quietest Rollformer on the market to date. The unit consists of two (2) Rollform head assemblies mounted parallel side-by-side and positioned from handwheel leadscrews. The roll tooling is designed to form the 180° drive cleat hems on both edges of the pre-notched sheet metal. As the pre-cut Duct passes through the Cleat Edge Former the system will sense the notch to form the Cleat Edges for L-shape and Full Wrapper Duct.

For systems using combination TDFC and “S” Slip and Drive Cleat operations, the Rollformer features by-pass conveyors. Using the handwheels provided the form rolls open wider and the part can be by-passed or transferred through the by-pass conveyor to the next form sequence.

As with all Ductformer Rollformers the quality of the CR-8-CF-DH Dual Head Cleat Former can be observed as soon as the power is turned on. The quiet silence while running reveals the precision workmanship and superior design to provide years of dependable service. Just like all Ductformer products everything is American made at our plant in St. Louis, Missouri and we back up everything we sell with the quality service you deserve.
