First, we
start with only certified,
raw materials made in the USA. From time-tested tool steels to high tech
materials such
as Ampco
Bronze, CPM-10V and Ferro Tic Alloys, along with patented, new age
coatings
allow River City Rollform to help you choose the correct material
application
for every job.
In
roll
forming, exact geometry placement within each roll is a must. The
design will
never work if the rolls do not accurately represent the designer’s
intent. At River City Rollform we
accurately control
form geometry by utilizing a direct AUTOCAD link to a very powerful,
customized CAM
system to achieve a tool motion
and user interfaced cutting sequence that is unparalleled in the
industry. This results in accelerated
cutting times and
a quicker turn-around for the customer.
River City
Rollform uses only world class
turning tools, special order carbide, ceramic, CBN, PCBN and diamond
inserts,
and high-grade ceramic grinding wheels. As each piece of tooling is
processed
through our system, our stringent quality control measures are in
effect and
all dimensions are confirmed before the tooling is allowed to proceed
to the
next manufacturing procedure. All of our machinists are responsible for
their
own QC. This approach results in a higher level of pride for our
employees,
equaling a better end product for our customers. A final QC process of
pass
wiring ensures all geometrical dimensions are correct. Combine all this
with
the latest in CNC machine tools and our many years of experience, the
end
result is a high quality set of tooling, with lead times that fit your
JIT
production schedule.
We
here at River City
realize that when it comes to
keeping a production line running, time is definitely money. Because of this, we offer emergency
manufacturing services, available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day for
replacement
roll tooling…one piece or several. We
have an inventory of soft and hardened D2 tool steel, pre-bored and
keyed,
ready to be formed cut for most all applications. In
many cases, we can have tooling ready to
ship in less than 24 hours. This keeps
your production line running instead of you.
