Tube rolls play a critical role in the efficiency and quality of tube production:
Tube rolls serve as tools to create exact shapes of metal strips into tubular products.
The production of multiple tube dimensions and forms becomes possible through the use of different tube roll setups.
The quality and design specifications of tube rolls establish how well the final product maintains its dimensions and surface quality.
Bowers & Jones produces roll tool products for forming mills which provides complete manufacturing solutions for tube and section production. The company provides specialised roll form tooling design and manufacturing services that support diverse requirements in precision metal rolling.
The arrangement of rolls in a forming mill is crucial for achieving the desired end product. The configuration typically includes:
Entry section (for feeding metal strips)
Forming section (where primary shaping occurs)
Welding section (for tube seam joining, if applicable)
Sizing section (for final dimensioning)
Cut-off section (for product length control)
