Roll forming is a simple, proven process. It's a continuous bending operation in which a long strip of metal (typically coiled steel) is passed through consecutive sets of rolls, or "stands," at room temperature. Each set performs incremental parts of the bend until the desired cross-section profile is obtained. Unlike other common metal shaping methods, roll forming's inherent flexibility allows secondary processes to be integrated into a single production line—increasing efficiency while reducing operational and capital costs by eliminating unnecessary handling and equipment.
Typical roll forming mills can accommodate material gauges ranging from .010" to " thick. The bond radius is largely determined by the ductility of the metal, but 180" bends are commonly acheived with the right material.
Roll forming excels in applications that require medium and high-volume production runs of parts with tight tolerances and consistent, complex cross section profiles. It can be used as a cost effective alternative to extruding press baking and stamping components.
