SWEEP UNITS FOR ROLL FORMED SECTIONS

Metform has provided tooling and equipment for automotive bumper suppliers for many years.  Developing the tooling and sweep unit for UHSS (Ultra High Strength Steel) bumpers is very challenging specifically when forming Martensite (M130 to M220) which has elongation properties of less than 3%.

Metform’s tooling engineers utilize their design experience along with FEA (finite element analysis) to optimize both the straight tooling in combination with the sweep unit to meet the stringent part tolerances of the automotive industry.
