Roll forming is a type of rolling that involves the continuous bending of a long strip of sheet metal (usually rolled steel) to a desired cross section. The tape passes through a series of rollers mounted on successive supports.
that each assembly performs only part of the bending until the desired cross section is obtained. Roll forming is ideal for producing parts with fixed specifications with long lengths and in large quantities. It is widely used in many industries such as construction, agriculture, and automobile industries.
The advantages that can be mentioned for sheet forming are: :
Forming different types of sheets
Accuracy, quality, consistency
No limit to produce in any size
High volume with lower cost
