Roll forming is a continuous process that has distinct advantages over other production methods. It eliminates the need for multiple stage production, finishing, or sub-assembly operations.
Secondary operations can be combined continuously with the roll forming operation to speed production and reduce assembly costs. Roll forming permits consistent adherence to close tolerances and provides uniform shapes and dimensions to fit a customers’ specifications.
The ability to fabricate decorative parts from pre-coated, pre-painted, or pre-plated metal is a distinct feature of roll forming. Because of this, multiple stage operations such as notching, punching, and post-painting, which are usually required when using extrusion methods, can be eliminated.
Another distinct advantage of roll forming when compared to extrusion methods, is that Practically all metals can be roll formed, not just aluminum.
