DIY Superstore’s state-of-the-art slitting and roll forming facilities allow us to manufacture a full range of cold formed lipped channels and lipped angles in Bloemfontein. Our Lip Channels can be cut to meet any customer specification.
By investing in modern slitting and roll forming facilities, we can provide the following benefits to the construction industry:
Efficiency: The speed of roll forming is due to the long coils of metal it uses that are rapidly fed into the forming machine. Since the machine is self-feeding, there is little room for human error. Punching and notching during pre-feeding avoids the need for secondary operations and facilitates shorter lead times and flexible service offerings.
Quality: Lipped channels and angels are more uniform and consistent across a complete run. Tolerances are very tight with extremely precise dimensions thanks to DIY Superstore’s unique “camber corrector”. Also, length variances are eliminated whilst maintaining sharp, clean contours with the absence of die marks or deformities.
Less Scrap: Since the lip channel is fed into the machine, any length can be produced using the roll forming process. This process produces one to three percent scrap for each production run. The lower amount of scrap lowers the cost of working which allows DIY Superstore to provide you with cost-effective lipped angles and channel prices.
