Yoder Strut Cable Tray Roll Forming Systems

Yoder Strut Cable Tray Roll Forming Systems

Strut framing channels are used in construction for installation of electrical and mechanical supports as well as utilities and air handling duct to name a few. They are used as a common solution for general industrial framing needs. Due to the versatility of applications and uses, there is a range of strut sizes, material thickness, hole patterns and profile features that may be required. Over the years, Yoder has developed robust Strut Cable Tray Roll Forming Systems for producing strut framing channels that support regional manufacturers as well as the high production OEM producers. The combination strut tooling design that Yoder has perfected enables customers to have a single installation that covers the entire product range with only partial tooling set changeover when switching products. This tooling design helps customers to produce channels in smaller production quantities with faster changeover and less setup scrap so they do not need to maintain large inventories of odd strut sizes in case of an order.
