Sheet Metal Rolling Services
Precision Rolling. Consistent Quality. Formed to Perform.
At Fuse Metal, sheet metal rolling is at the core of what we do—transforming flat stock into precise, curved, or complex profiles used across multiple industries. Whether you’re looking for structural components or custom-formed metal parts, our rolling capabilities are designed to meet the most demanding specifications.
Sheet Metal Rolling Services
Sheet metal rolling is a metal forming process in which metal stock is passed through one or more sets of rolls. This operation reduces material thickness, ensures uniformity, and allows for shaping into specific forms like curves, cylinders, or intricate profiles. The principle is simple—comparable to rolling out dough—but the precision, force, and technique involved are highly engineered.
Rolling Methods: Hot vs. Cold
We utilize two fundamental rolling processes, chosen based on material properties and project requirements:
Hot Rolling
- Performed above the metal’s recrystallization temperature (e.g., 900–1200°C for steel).
- Makes metal more malleable for easier shaping.
- Ideal for reducing hardness and forming larger pieces quickly.
Cold Rolling
- Conducted at or near room temperature.
- Produces a smoother surface finish.
- Increases strength and dimensional accuracy.
- Preferred for applications requiring tight tolerances and high-end surface quality.
Applications of Sheet Metal Rolling
- Thickness Reduction Achieve precise sheet thickness with consistent mechanical properties.
- Cylindrical & Curved Shapes We roll lock-seam, welded, and open-butt-joint pipe, as well as custom cylinders and arcs.
- Complex Profiles Using roll forming technology, we produce consistent and detailed shapes over long runs.
