Cold
roll forming is a process whereby flat metal of a predetermined width
and thickness in a continuous coil is fed into a series of powered, mating
pairs of roller dies as shown in the series of illustrations to the right.
As the metal passes from one set of dies to the next, it is formed into
a progressive succession of configurations, each bringing the section
a little nearer to the completed part than the one preceding it. A simple
section may take only three pairs of roller dies, while twelve or more
pairs may be required to produce a complex section. Roller dies must be
machined very accurately from a high grade steel, carefully hardened and
then precision ground. It is sometimes possible to pre-punch holes, slots,
or perforate, emboss or slit the strip prior to its entry into the roll
forming machine. Precision tolerances which are not practical with other
methods of production are routine with roll forming. There is practically
no limit to the length of roll formed sections as the raw material is
obtained in continuous coils.

Below is a small sampling
of the thousands of possible configurations of roll forming.
