Roll forming is a progressive process that passes a metal strip through a series of specially shaped roller dies to form, ultimately, a desired roll formed profile. Strip stock is fed through successive pairs of contoured rolls that progressively form the workpiece to meet the desired specifications.

The roll forming process characteristics include:

  • Its common usage to mass produce mass long metal pieces with relatively close tolerances,
  • The utilization of ductile workpiece materials, softer metals,
  • Working with materials that are usually less than 3mm thick and 500mm wide,
  • The capability to produce desired workpieces at a forming speed of 30m per minute,
  • Its strong suitability to produce decorative and structural metal products often for roofing and siding.
