In sheet metal processing companies, traditional leveling methods are no longer a cost-effective process. Whether hammers and flames, rolling machines or leveling presses, they are only superficial efforts to reduce residual stress in the material.
These residual stresses in the material will cause serious adverse effects in the subsequent processing of sheet metal parts. They can be released by stamping or laser cutting, causing bending and deformation of sheet metal parts, causing time-consuming rework and even scrap, jeopardizing the entire subsequent process chain, delaying processing and increasing production costs.
The high degree of automation of sheet metal processing is inseparable from the precision four-roll leveler. There are hardly any sheet metal processing companies that can guarantee the precision and efficiency of processing without using a 4-high roller leveling machine.
