Roll forming – the 'shaper' of metals

Have you ever wondered how sheet metal transforms into precision components? This article explores how roll forming technology efficiently shapes metal through a series of rollers, much like a pasta machine.

Roll forming (also known as cold forming) is a continuous metalworking process that progressively shapes sheet metal, strip, or coil into products with specific cross-sectional profiles using multiple sets of rollers. This technique is ideal for high-volume production, efficiently manufacturing long, high-precision metal components while simultaneously performing auxiliary operations such as punching and embossing during forming.

🔧 Core Technical Features:
• High efficiency and precision: Continuous feeding and forming through a series of roll stands equipped with shaped rolls ensures excellent product consistency.
• Wide material compatibility: Processes mild steel, nickel-chromium steel, brass, light alloys, and more.
• Extensive application scope: Widely utilised in automotive manufacturing, construction, home appliances, aerospace, and other sectors.
