Roll Bending Sheet Metal Forming

The process is performed on a roll forming line in which the sheet metal stock is fed through a series of roll stations.

Roll bending sheet metal forming.

There are two types of classifications. For this reason roll bending of metal sheets is one of the chipless sheet metal forming methods. Roll forming also spelled roll forming or rollforming is a type of rolling involving the continuous bending of a long strip of sheet metal into a desired cross section. There are two basic frame designs.

Metal rolling is the process of taking sheets of metal and running them through a rolling machine to reduce thickness and guarantee that the sides are uniform all around. Roll bending is used if a metal sheet panel is to be given a larger smooth radius which we can only produce in our press brakes with step bending. Roll forming is ideal for producing constant profile parts with long lengths and in large quantities. Similar to shape rolling but.

The metal sheet is not cut and no material is removed. The strip passes through sets of rolls mounted on consecutive stands each set performing only an incremental part of the bend until the desired cross section is obtained. 1 horizontal 2 vertical. Hot rolling and cold rolling.

Often several rolls may be employed in series to continuously bend stock. Roll forming roll forming sometimes spelled rollforming is a metal forming process in which sheet metal is progressively shaped through a series of bending operations.
