Introduction to Rollforming
DIMECO, located in the Spanish Basque Country, specializes in integrating rollforming machines into flexible manufacturing lines, known as Flexilines, for continuous production of metallic parts. These machines can be incorporated into both DIMECO's own lines and existing production lines.

Specifications and Features
The rollforming machines are versatile, capable of processing materials such as steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and pre-lacquered metals. They can operate in continuous or stop-and-go modes, with or without lubrication. A key feature is the use of interchangeable cassettes, allowing for the production of different profiles on the same motorized bench. For parts with varying widths but consistent side profiles, DIMECO employs Duplex rollforming machines, which allow manual or automatic width adjustments.

Technical Details
The machines use a set of gears for transmission between rollforming stations, ensuring reliable and durable operation. Key technical considerations include the number of stations, motor power, shaft diameter, band width, distance between stations, and shaft height.

Application Fields
DIMECO's rollforming technology is applicable in diverse sectors, including cable trays, racking and shelving, luminaries, automotive, construction, solar, cabinets, and agriculture.

Sets of Rolls
DIMECO provides custom sets of rolls to meet specific customer needs, enabling the production of new profiles on existing rollforming machines. The design process considers factors such as station quantity, motor power, and material properties. Rolls undergo thermal treatment for hardness, with material selection based on application requirements, using steels like 95MnCrW5, X160CrMoV12, and others.
