Roll forming lines can be configured in two ways to create length-specific formed parts. One method is pre-cutting, which involves cutting the steel coil before it enters the roll former. The other ...

Alternative higher strength steels can be developed by post-forming heat treatment. Retaining the geometry of components during and subsequent to the heat treatment process is a key barrier for the ...

The described basic practices aim to achieve postforming of tubular structures without critical defects such as folds, wrinkles, and fiber damage, while improving the external surface quality. The ...
