BASICS OF ROLL FORMING ALUMINUM
Roll Forming, sometimes called sheet roll forming, is a continuous bending operation where aluminum, typically in the form of sheet metal, is passed through sets of rolls that progressively shape it into a desired cross-sectional profile. This process is especially advantageous for producing long lengths and large quantities of structurally sound parts.
ADVANTAGES OF ROLL FORMING
Consistency: Produces parts with uniform thickness and consistent shapes.
Flexibility: Can produce a wide range of cross-sectional profiles.
Efficiency: Ideal for high-volume production due to its continuous nature.
APPLICATIONS OF ROLL FORMED ALUMINUM
Construction: Roofing, wall panels, and framing.
Transportation: Rails, bumpers, and automotive parts.
Industrial sectors: Racking systems and conveyor belts.
