4. Annealing Following the cold rolling process, the steel strips may require annealing. This heat treatment process relieves internal stresses that develop during cold rolling, restoring ductility and reducing hardness. The annealing process can be performed in a continuous furnace where the steel strip is heated and then gradually cooled.
Another significant benefit is the reduction of material waste. CNC roll forming machines optimize the use of raw materials by maximizing the number of profiles produced from a single sheet. This not only lowers costs but also contributes to more environmentally friendly manufacturing processes by minimizing excess waste. Furthermore, the precise nature of CNC controls ensures that dimensions are accurate, which significantly reduces the need for rework or scrap.
