What is Sheet Metal Forming?


by jwksales | Sheet Metal Forming

Sheet metal forming processes are those in which force is applied to a piece of sheet metal to modify its geometry rather than adding additional material by welding to produce the desired shape. The applied force stresses the metal beyond its yield strength, causing the material to deform, but not fail. By doing so, the sheet can be bent or stretched into a variety of complex shapes. The four main processes for forming sheet metal are bending, rolling, stamping and spinning. Each process provides its own unique advantage, depending on the specifics of the sheet metal being formed. At JWK Engineering & Sales, we provide a range of sheet metal forming services using CNC manufacturing techniques. Through our methods and services, we can fulfill a variety of metal forming needs.

Our Services
Using our precision services and methods, we are able to provide plate/sheet metal bending, rolling and stamping. Our sheet metal forming services also include structural bending and rolling, including angle, channel, pipe and tube. The methods and processes used with sheet metal forming services will ensure every bend and angle is as accurate as possible.

Using CNC controlled equipment, your order is carried out efficiently with the required repeatability and accuracy you expect. Additionally, the computerized control offered through our CNC manufacturing capabilities virtually eliminates the margin for error, ensuring your product maintains its original structure and rigidness, without being worn down by re-shaping and forming. We specialize in providing quality custom sheet metal forming services to a variety of industries.
