Our Roll Form Operation
In the video below you’ll see a roll form machine in action.
The sheet metal starts out as a flat sheet and runs through the roll form process.
It gradually comes out as a shaped c-channel at the other end.
Tolerances on machined tooled parts are within +/- .0005 (0.0127mm). All tooling is manufactured and designed on site. Some shapes will take up to 36 separate tools to form what the shape requires. Careful planning, tool design and manufacture are vital to the roll form operation to supply a perfect part the first time and every time.
Holding Tolerances @ +/- 1 Degree(s) and dimensional tolerances of +/-0.005” . Computer AUTO-CAD tool design strategically located from approved heat treater and additional processing. Production capabilities run from 1 foot to 75 foot lengths. Forming a wide range of aluminum alloys, titanium and stainless.
