In roll forming, a flat strip is reshaped into a sheet metal profile by progressive profile bending. The metal passes through a series of shaft pairs with consecutive form-changing tools.
Bendiro can manufacture profiles up to widths of just over 300 mm finished profile (max. input width 450 mm), and heights of just over 100 mm.
There are essentially no limits on profile length in roll forming. Practically speaking, Bendiro can produce and deliver profiles in lengths from 200 mm up to 12000 mm
As a production method, roll forming is exceptionally cost-effective when manufacturing volumes of more than 10,000 m. As standard Bendiro offers a minimum order limit of 5,000 m, but smaller volumes can be discussed where necessary.
Roll forming is in many ways a unique production method that can combine many of the advantages of edge pressing, extrusion of aluminium profiles, and tool-bound pressing of profile-like products.
There are many benefits of roll forming:
Bendiro makes profiles for a wide range of companies and areas, including:
In Falkenberg on Sweden’s West Coast. Falkenberg, south-west Sweden. Strategically located on the E6 Highway and the West Coast Line (railway). High capacity with potential for Just-in-Time deliveries to your work site.
Bendiro offers a range of additional services alongside roll forming of profiles, which is still our core business. Some examples of additional services:
All bendable materials can be roll formed. This essentially means that any material that can be coiled can be roll formed. Even extremely strong materials, or materials with very limited forming properties, can be roll formed.
Examples of materials roll formed at Bendiro daily:
Yes. All types of metal-coated materials (galvanized, zinc-magnesium, aluzinc). Also pre-lacquered materials are good for roll forming, as are foiled materials.
Bendiro can roll form material thicknesses from 0.3 mm up to 3.0 mm
Roll forming allows high material utilisation, generally >95%, so it is a good, long-term sustainable production process. High material utilisation offers several benefits, such as:
