Over the last 20 years, BMS has focused on perfecting the roll forming machine. For many reasons Roll forming is superior to other metal forming processes and has advantages over aluminum extrusions. The main benefits of roll forming are as follows:
Reduce Energy Costs
· In addition, roll forming machine provides an energy-efficient method for forming metals. The roll forming process does not involve heats. The metal is formed by a series of rotating molds or custom-designed rollers. Also, the roll forming process does not require deburring or machining. All this help to save energy costs.
Consistency and Precision
· Another reason for the higher efficiency of roll forming is that it has advantages of precision, quality, and consistency compared with other metal forming processes. You can design roll forming to meet very tight tolerances. The forming of all parts by rollers will be more uniform and consistent.
Suitable For a Wide Range of Materials
· Roll forming machine is suitable for a variety of materials or metals, including Aluminum, Brass, Galvalume, Cold rolled steel, Galvanized steel, Copper, Electrogalvanized steel, Color coated, and Stainless steel.
No Length Constraints
· Unlike other metal forming processes or bending operations, the roll forming machine does not limit the length of the part. This is because the material is coiled and fed through a horizontal series of rotating molds or rollers. Therefore, any length can be produced. You can also add tooling to the roll forming process to produce any shape, regardless of how complex.
The Process Is Fast
· Roll forming machine is usually done with long strips of coiled sheet metal. For this reason, the process is relatively fast and requires a low amount of labor. In addition, compared with press-breaking, roll forming can realize mass production of a variety of products. You can also add other processes to the roll forming process, such as notching or punching. Thus, efficiency is improved and labor demand is reduced.
More Flexible
· More importantly, all kinds of virtual metals, including ferrous or nonferrous metals, can be roll-formed into different shapes. In fact, complex cross-section profiles such as C-channels, U-channel steel, roundand closed profiles, are very difficult to stamping and can be easily manufactured by roll forming. With roll forming machine, you can form more metals while saving money and time.
