Roll Forming Basics
Roll forming systems are like automobiles. The general public calls everything a car but in reality, there are hundreds of different automobiles with hundreds of options. The same is with roll forming systems, be it very simple or extremely complex. Understanding a few categories of roll form systems will allow you to narrow your search on the system you need, but also allow you to understand the other categories for future opportunities.
