How it works

The cold roll forming process

  1. Strip feed. Metal strip of the required width and thickness is fed into the line.
  2. Progressive forming. Pairs of contoured rolls at each station bend the strip a little further.
  3. Final profile. The strip reaches its finished cross-section at room temperature, uniform along its length.
  4. Cut to length. Profiles are cut to the length the application needs.
