30” Roll Form line with ERW welding for production of closed sections

ROLL FORMING

We have invested in the latest roll-forming production equipment to form sheet metal into shapes with closer tolerances. All tube is sized to precise tolerances promoting high-strength and good surface finish properties to produce open profile and welded closed sections.
