    Precision Sheet Metal Machining & Rolling | One‑Stop CNC + Roll Forming

    {当前产品的产品关键词轮巡使用}

    For industrial components that require both curved/cylindrical shapes and precision features (holes, threads, slots), a fragmented supply chain creates tolerance stack‑ups and delays. As a precision sheet metal manufacturer with 12 years of experience, we integrate sheet metal rolling (forming cylinders, cones, arcs) and sheet metal machining (CNC milling, drilling, turning) into one seamless workflow. This end‑to‑end solution delivers consistent quality, reduced lead time, and lower total cost – whether you need a single prototype or high‑volume production.

    ⚙️ Sheet Metal Machining: Ultra‑Precision Finishing

    Our CNC machining department is equipped with state‑of‑the‑art mills, lathes, and drilling centers, achieving tolerances as tight as ±0.005mm. We handle materials from stainless steel (304, 316) and aluminum (6061, 5052) to carbon steel and exotic alloys (titanium, Inconel). Techniques include milling, drilling, tapping, turning, and contouring, all programmed via advanced CAD/CAM for perfect repeatability. Every part is verified with CMM and visual inspection.

    🔧 Machining capabilities

    • 99.7% defect‑free rate

    🌀 Sheet Metal Rolling: Precision Curved & Cylindrical Forming

    Our rolling shop operates CNC 3‑roll and 4‑roll machines that bend flat sheet metal into consistent cylinders, cones, arcs, and custom curved shapes without compromising structural integrity. Material thickness from 0.5mm to 12mm, width up to 2000mm, and cylinder diameters from 50mm to 2000mm. 4‑roll technology allows pre‑bending both edges, minimizing flat spots and ensuring leak‑proof seams for tanks and pipes.

    • Rolling types: cylindrical, conical, curved, segmented arcs
    • Thickness range: 0.5–12mm (mild steel, stainless, aluminum)
    • Max width: 2000mm | Diameter range: Φ50–2000mm
    • Integrated with machining for post‑roll drilling/tapping

    🔗 Why integrate rolling & machining? Real‑world synergy

    Many rolled components require precision machining to become functional: a cylindrical tank needs inlet/outlet holes, threaded fittings, and finished edges. When rolling and machining are done by separate suppliers, misalignment of holes relative to the weld seam or inconsistent cylinder geometry leads to costly rework. Our integrated approach guarantees that every rolled part is fixtured and machined using the same datum, ensuring perfect alignment.

    💡 Example: An industrial pressure vessel – rolled to exact diameter, then CNC‑machined for ports, flanges, and sealing grooves. One supplier, one quality standard, zero misalignment.

    ❓ Frequently asked questions

    Q1: What is the minimum rolling diameter you can achieve?
    With our 3‑roll and 4‑roll machines, minimum cylinder diameter is 50mm for materials up to 6mm thickness. Smaller diameters may require custom mandrels – contact our engineers.
    Q2: Can you machine rolled parts without distortion?
    Yes. We use dedicated fixtures and strategic machining sequences to avoid deformation. For thin‑wall cylinders, we recommend leaving stock and finish‑machining after rolling.
    Q3: What is the typical lead time for a prototype (rolling + machining)?
    For a simple cylindrical part with machining, lead time is 10–14 days including DFM. Expedited options are available.
    Q4: Do you provide free DFM for curved sheet metal components?
    Absolutely. Upload your CAD (STEP, IGES, DWG) and our engineers will optimise rolling direction, seam placement, and machining datums within 24 hours.
    Q5: Which materials are most suitable for rolling + machining?
    Stainless steel 304/316, aluminum 5052/6061, carbon steel (hot/cold rolled), and some exotics. For high‑strength alloys like Inconel, we adjust rolling parameters to avoid cracking.
