Request Information
As a leading global resource, at voestalpine Roll Forming Corporation, we offer collaborative engineering services for custom roll-formed tubes and products. We operate an extensive engineering department to deliver an innovative solution for every application. Along with entirely custom-engineered designs, we modify our standard structures with secondary operations.

Our engineering services incorporate CAD modeling with advanced engineering analytics, rapid prototyping, tooling development, and product testing. We focus on creating parts that optimize current processes and offer benefits in terms of manufacturability and cost reduction. Our engineers carry out detailed analyses to measure performance of different designs and materials to ensure product quality and reliability. Studies include FEA, failure and fatigue analysis, thermal performance, etc.

We tap into the advantages of roll forming to engineer products that can be produced consistently to very tight tolerances and with excellent surface finishes. With roll forming, we can process materials like high-strength steels without breaking or tearing, allowing us to create strong and light components that actually require less steel than alternative forming methods like press braking or extrusion. We guide the development process from drawing to 3D printing rapid prototypes, and tooling development for pre-production models for use in trials and testing.

We have decades of experience, and our engineering services are backed up by our global resources and our expertise with roll-formed steel structures. One of our specialties is engineering strong and lightweight roll-formed tubes for roll-over protection structures (ROPS) and falling-object protection structures (FOPS) for off-highway applications. For additional information about our engineering services for custom roll-formed tubes and products or to arrange a consultation, contact us directly.
