Plate bending
At VGI Willems, our stainless steel specialists are specialized in rolling and edging stainless steel. Using detailed designs, we are able to roll various conical shapes, such as tubes and cylinders. VGI Willems takes care of the entire process of stainless steel machining, with a special focus on mechanical engineering.
WHAT IS RVS WALSING?
Rolling is a versatile machining technique that offers various design options. Stainless steel sheet rolling makes it possible to easily change the shape of stainless steel sheet metal, transforming straight metal pieces into round, oval, or providing specific corrugations, depending on your needs. In addition, rolling can be seamlessly combined with laser cutting.
STAINLESS STEEL ROLLERS AT VGI WILLEMS
Stainless steel rolling is done with advanced rolling machines. During this process we use the Durma Waltz HBR-4. This advanced machine has a maximum working length of 2050 mm and a roller diameter of 230 mm, to process different formats. The editing process has the following steps:
- Folding: In this process, the edges of the stainless steel plate are bent, so that the hull does not have flat ends.
- Rolling: Our skilled professionals machine the plates with the desired radius, as specified by the customer.
- Joining: The hulls are welded together with care.
- Finishing: Thanks to this finishing, the end product is guaranteed to be of top quality, without any defects.
WHAT IS STAINLESS STEEL EDDING?
Stainless steel edging, also known as ‘setting’ or ‘folding’, is a processing technique in which stainless steel plates are bent to give them a 3D contour. This process involves reshaping plate edges so that the hull does not have flat ends. Using our various advanced press brakes, we can create both right-angled corners and more complex shapes to increase radii. All this makes stainless steel sheet metal edging a crucial and versatile technique for manufacturing high-quality products. For example, we use the following machines:
LVD KANTBANK PPEB 220/40:
• Maximum tonnage: 220 tons
• Maximum working length: 4000 mm
• Working length between the uprights: 3500 mm
LVD KANTBANK TOOLCELL 135/30:
• Maximum tonnage: 135 tons
• Maximum working length: 3000 mm
• Working length between the uprights: 3000 mm
LVD KANTBANK PPEB 220/50:
• Maximum tonnage: 220 tons
• Maximum working length: 5000 mm
• Working length between the uprights: 4000 mm
DARLEY KANTBANK EHP 175 CL:
• Maximum tonnage: 175 tons
• Maximum working length: 3100 mm
• Working length between the uprights: 2550 mm
DURMA WALS HRB-4:
• Maximum tonnage: 175 tons
• Maximum working length: 3100 mm
• Working length between the uprights: 2550 mm
