Sheet metal progressive folding:
Much more than rollforming, folding, a technical finish
Our progressive folding know-how
Progressive folding, an innovative alternative to traditional rollforming, is part of our specialist expertise. Our precision technique allows us to form a metal sheet into a curve by means of a multitude of successive folds.
Progressive folding round parts
When rollforming has reached its limits, the progressive folding of round parts takes over. This method seems particularly effective for thick parts where the diameter is too small for roll forming machines. These round parts are folded progressively in half-parts.
Progressive folding a cone
We fold concentric, oblique or truncated parts with chamfered edges. The multifold technique is often used as a last resort.
Progressive folding of complex parts
Everything is possible when an internal study confirms our ability to assist you. “Round squares” or eccentric cones are technical parts where progressive folding is often the only solution.
Craftsmanship in the service of industry
Tools and progressive folding rollforming machines
Our fleet of progressive folding rollforming machines and adapted tools allow us to form custom and non-standard parts with progressive folding.
Associated with a sharp finishing touch
The manual know-how of our team offers dexterity and sensitivity for the material that allows it to know where to tap, where to fold and where to straighten in order to fashion your most complex parts.
Without forgetting
the technology
Being leaders in this field, we are equipped with 2D and 3D modeling technologies.
The materials worked
We work with all kinds of metals like steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, brass, nickel, titanium, Inconel and their alloys.
Custom quality
At Brilla, we do not design any project without our established and documented quality policy. We offer a specific service of quality management upon request.
Our progressive folding productions
Single cone, small and medium production runs for round parts, prototypes or unique challenges
The progressive folding is a unique technique that requires dexterity and minutious work. We can produce, upon request, non-standard projects using sheet metal progressive folding.
