Roll Form Engineering Services in the UK

COPRA^® Roll Tool Design Service

Here at data M UK, we are providing software solutions and Finite Element Analysis services for the development of rollformed parts, albeit simple shapes from standard materials, or more complex shapes from high strength materials, with multiple hole patterns or without.

As time to market is critical, so is the cost of tooling and the development time, with the potential for valuable hours to be lost at commissioning, along with the associated costs of re-design and re-cutting of rolls, especially on a production machine, it becomes ever apparent design flaws should be removed and eradicated where possible, prior to tooling manufacture, hence the use and need for COPRA® FEA RF, “The Virtual Roll Forming Mill”.

At data M UK, we pride ourselves on having many years of experience in developing and optimising Roll Tooling designs in this manner, where a “right first time” design is provided to the end user, along with all relevant project data for roll manufacture. Being the only independent Roll Tool Design company in the UK with COPRA® FEA RF available, we are considered a significant industry partner in this field of engineering, whether we are providing consultancy or sound design and development services to the end user.

With the world leading software packages COPRA® RF and COPRA® FEA RF being used throughout the entire process, from the design of the profile, flower patterns, tooling design and furthermore the validation of the forming process with Finite Element Analysis Simulation, there is really no better way to tackle such challenges in the modern world. Roll forming is certainly the future, the way forwards, to be on budget and reduce time to market is with COPRA®.
