Roll Forming


Voss has been producing roll-formed shapes for over 30 years, currently specializing in roll-formed rings. We design and produce all tooling in house for both symmetrical and non-symmetrical ring cross sections in diameters up to 16 feet for industrial, military and aerospace usage.

Custom roll-formed rings and straight shapes are made from various materials with thicknesses ranging from 0.020 to 0.186 inch.

Capabilities:

Materials:

Alloy steel, stainless steel, titanium, brass, copper, nickel alloys

Thickness:

0.020 to 0.186 inches

Width:

12 inch maximum (flat)

Diameter:

Five inch minimum (dependent upon material, thickness and complexity of shape) to 16 foot maximum (limited by inspection capability).

Advantages:

Once the shape is established, range of diameters is virtually infinite, since parts are "coiled to size" on the rolling mill. If the desired shape were to be stamped, a new set of tooling would be required to produce each size.

Rings of infinite diameters, up to 16 feet, are formed and helically wound on six
roll forming mills. Straight shapes are also formed as well.

Small Diameter Bending:

Various commercial and specialized Voss designed and built hand and power roller/benders are used to roll formed and flats shapes to diameters down to 2 inches.
