Questions

Forming & rolling FAQ

What thickness can you form?

CMF forms thin sheet through thick plate on press brakes from 135 to 400 tons, including a 400-ton Pacific with a 14 ft bed. Plate rolls handle up to 3/4 in × 12 ft.

Can you roll cylinders and cones?

Yes. CMF's Bertsch plate rolls turn flat plate into cylinders, shells, cones, transitions and radiused segments, then our welders and boring mill finish them in the same building.

What have you rolled before?

Recent CMF work includes a ballistic research blast tank rolled from 3/4 in plate and a stainless process tank 12 ft in diameter and 25 ft long.

What materials do you form?

CMF forms carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminum, from one-off prototypes to production runs, with CNC programs saved for every reorder.
