4. 1. Definition

   A greenhouse glazing clip / card-slot channel line cold-forms lock or clip channels used to secure film or glazing on greenhouse frames: decoil → feed → roll form → hydraulic cut-to-length → exit.

   Not a greenhouse arch/pipe frame line, not a light-gauge wall stud line, and not an anti-condensation felt laminating line. Industry “card-slot” / “spring lock” pages describe the same narrow profile family for film fixing.

   2. Process outline

   1. Decoil (coil width ~300 mm class; ~1.5 t)
   2. Feed / guide
   3. Roll form (~12 gear stands)
   4. Hydraulic cut-to-length
   5. Exit table

   4. Related machines

   • Greenhouse arch / pipe frame lines — structural tubes or arches; different power class
   • Light-gauge wall keel / stud lines — building framing, not glazing clips
   • Silo corrugated panel lines — heavy wall panels; never reuse silo kW here
   • Anti-condensation felt laminators — coating auxiliaries, not clip forming

   5. Applications

   • Film / glazing lock channels on greenhouse frames
   • Card-slot / spring-clip profiles matching the roller drawing

   6. Inquiry checklist

   • Clip / card-slot section drawing
   • Material grade and thickness (must be confirmed)
   • Coil width and decoiler capacity
   • Cut length range and count needs
   • Confirm not arch-frame, wall-stud, or silo-panel RFQ

   7. Buyer FAQ

   Same as greenhouse arch or wall keel?

   No. This page is the glazing clip / card-slot channel line. Arch frames and other keels keep separate parameter sets.

   Why is thickness blank?

   Can I use silo-panel 30 kW here?

   No. Silo wall-panel hosts are a different family with much higher power and thickness.

   Is felt laminating included?

   No. Anti-condensation film/felt equipment is a separate auxiliary if the project needs it.

   Final ratings follow the named proposal. Price and lead time are out of scope.
