ASKED
QUESTIONS
• Low Capital Cost Equipment - therefore it's financially easy to get into production
• Only one section profile for each profile width - so only one coil width is required. Even the truss coil width is the same as the 90mm coil width
• Our wall Panel machines are Single Phase, so only a normal clean power supply is required. The truss roll-formers are 3-phase.
• The roll-former is easily transportable, extrude on site if required
• Single operator, no IT skills or steel rolling experience required
• ScotSteel design software is powerful and leading edge easy-to-use intuitive software, allowing freedom of design and architectural style is virtually unlimited
• Very few tools required
• No manual measuring, cutting, drilling or lay-out production jigs required
• All elements are extruded according to the design, production mistakes are virtually eliminated
• Low cost semi-skilled production and assembly labour - easy to train
• Very low wastage
• Flexibility - use the unique Scottsdale panel ceiling & roof solution or the Scottsdale trusses, whichever is better suited to the application and environment
• Residential - from single to three story
• Commercial and Self-storage buildings
• External wall in-fill framing for commercial buildings
• Internal wall fill-in framing
• Lattice Beam Joist production
• Steel Truss production
• Service and plumbing holes are automatically pre-punched
• No "nail pops" in plasterboard cladding
• Steel framing is precise and square making insertion of Door and Windows frames easier. Door & window frames will not distort, eliminating jamming
• Packing of battens to obtain a flat ceiling is not required (using our unique panel ceiling and roof solution)
Typically, a 3-man team can erect all the frames, including wall, ceiling and roof panels in approximately 3 days
• Compressor - typically a 15 FM single phase compressor is sufficient
• Rivet gun/s
• Manual tin snips or electric/pneumatic nibblers
• Lip flattener (supplied)
• Erecting frames is easy, only a cordless screw gun/drill is required - frames are screwed together using self drilling Tek screws
• Unlike many systems, the Scottsdale system is not a "produce for stock" system. As the elements come out of the roll-former they are immediately assembled and riveted together.
• Our roll-formers can produce elements faster than most fabrication teams can assemble them.
• In terms of raw line speed the panelised machines can run at 1000m plus per hour. Normal production speed is between 200-600 m per hour depending on what elements are being produced. However, the machine can run faster than a team of three to four men can assemble the frames
• Steel has the highest strength to weight ratio
• 100% Termite, rodent, borer and dry-rot proof
• No Splitting
• No Warping
• No Cracking. No Rotting. Dimensionally stable
• Stronger connection - no nails
• Straighter Walls, squarer cornersLighter than timber frames, less load on foundations and concrete slab
• No calls backs
• Steel is the most recycled material in the world
• Lower transport costs due to lightweight frames
• No lifting equipment required to erect ceiling and roof panels
• Completed panels are substantially lighter than timber, 1 man can easily carry a 3m x 2.4m high wall panel
• Steel frames will not bur
• Lightning will not affect a steel framed house more than a timber one, as steel creates a positive earth. Lightning energy is conducted straight to the ground
• No chemical treatments as is the case with timber frames
• Each structure is a fully engineered
• We provide comprehensive training & support and backup from initial production set-up
• ScotSteel designs can easily be emailed from your operation to our support personnel, checked, rectified if necessary and returned to you
