Overview
Networked Control for Full-Automatic Thermal Break Production
The MAKERL T700 is a full-automatic thermal break assembly line designed to simplify aluminum profile production through CNC processing and networked control.
Its one-key operation system makes it easier to manage processing programs and production settings, reducing repetitive manual adjustments during daily production. By coordinating profile knurling, PA66 strip insertion and rolling, the T700 helps manufacturers handle different profile specifications with a more streamlined workflow.
With a production capacity of 120–240 pcs/h and a standard operating team of 2–3 people, the T700 offers a practical automation solution for aluminum profile manufacturers looking to improve productivity and reduce labor requirements.

Working Process
- One-Key Program Import — Operators select the required processing program through the production software or scan a QR code to load the corresponding settings.
- CNC Knurling & PA66 Strip Insertion — CNC processing stations create the required tooth pattern on the aluminum profiles and automatically insert the PA66 thermal break strips.
- Automatic Profile Transfer — The conveyor system transfers profiles between processing stations, reducing manual handling and maintaining a continuous production flow.
- CNC Rolling & Crimping—The CNC rolling machine presses the aluminum profiles and PA66 strips together according to the specified crimping parameters.
- Finished Profile Output — Finished thermal break profiles are discharged from the production line for inspection, handling and subsequent packaging.
T700 Full-Automatic Line vs Manual Line
| Comparison | T700 automatic line | Conventional manual line |
|---|---|---|
| Operators per line | 2–3 | 8–12 |
| Annual output | 2,600–5,800 tons | 1,500–3,000 tons |
| Processing Quality | CNC-controlled positioning for more consistent processing and reduced profile collision risk | Manual handling with a higher risk of profile collisions and quality variation |
| Profile Compatibility | I, C and T profiles, cavity profiles and custom-length PA66 strips | Mainly flat strip-insertion profiles |
| Changeover | One-key program selection and parameter recall | Manual parameter adjustments and longer changeover time |
Applications
- Aluminum Door, Window & Curtain Wall Manufacturers — Ideal for manufacturers upgrading from manual PA66 strip insertion to full-automatic thermal break profile production.
- Multi-Profile Production Facilities — Suitable for factories producing multiple aluminum profile series that require flexible production settings and repeatable changeovers.
- High-Volume Aluminum Profile Manufacturers — Designed for manufacturers looking to increase annual output, reduce labor requirements and improve production efficiency without significantly expanding their workforce.
FAQ
