HYRUN Machinery explains the advantages of common plate flange ducts over angle steel flange ducts.

Common-plate flanged ductwork, also known as flangeless ductwork, is faster, more convenient, and less leaky than traditional rectangular ductwork. This new design saves materials and reduces project investment; it also offers minimal air leakage, low energy consumption, and reduced operating costs, making it highly popular among construction companies. Since the 1990s, developed countries like Europe and the United States have adopted flangeless duct connections. Currently, this process is widely used in various projects.

In recent years, as a crucial component of air conditioning and ventilation systems, the number of air ducts has increased annually, and the requirements for them have also become increasingly demanding. Advances in science and technology have led to the emergence of new materials and processes for duct manufacturing and installation, with common-plate flanged ductwork being one of these. Common-plate flanged ducting equipment has become a valuable tool for large-scale construction installation companies. Furthermore, the production of common-plate flanged ductwork has become a crucial factor in securing key HVAC projects.

Common-plate flanged ductwork features self-forming flanges, reduced duct weight, excellent sealing performance, attractive appearance, high strength, quick and easy installation, and low production costs. The adoption of a common plate flange duct processing line not only transforms duct production from inefficient manual labor to highly efficient machine production, but also significantly reduces labor intensity, improves work efficiency, and lowers project costs.

Compared to angle steel flange ducts, the production and installation of ducts saves approximately 60% of labor per 10 square meters, 30kg of various steel sections, over 10 sets of various connecting bolts, and 0.2kg of anti-rust paint per construction period. The duct flanges are made of galvanized steel, increasing the amount of galvanized steel by approximately 4%. The production line also makes it easier to control manufacturing precision and quality. Furthermore, it reduces the need for steel sections and anti-corrosion work, and reduces paint pollution, resulting in significant economic and social benefits.

Common plate flange duct production requires a common plate flange machine.

Angle steel flange duct production requires an angle steel flange production line.
