Sheet Metal Roll Bending
with the 4-Roller DAVI

Sheet metal roll bending (plate rolling) is the process of cold bending of plates through rollers, so that the flat metal sheet acquires curvature — cylindrical, conical or elliptical. It is one of the fundamental methods of sheet metal forming in the metal industry. At Axinar in Thessaloniki we perform metal roll bending with the 4-roller DAVI MCA — a machine with Servo-Tronic CNC technology that ensures a uniform bending radius with no flat spots along the entire length of the plate.

Unlike conventional 3-roller machines, the 4-roller rolls both ends of the plate without the need to flip or re-roll — this means zero flat spots, greater accuracy and faster production time. Servo-Tronic technology CNC-controls the position of each roller independently, achieving conical part rolling and elliptical shape rolling with an accuracy that is not achievable in any 3-roller vs 4-roller comparison.

Applications of sheet metal roll bending include: roll bending for tanks, roll bending for silos, roll bending for chimneys, roll bending for ductwork, large-diameter piping, cones, machine jackets, curved canopies, cylindrical enclosures and metal structures with curved surfaces. We perform steel roll bending, stainless steel roll bending (inox) and aluminium roll bendingcustom roll bending in any radius and shape. See our metal structures.

The cost of roll bending depends on factors such as: material (steel, stainless steel, aluminium), plate thickness and width, bending radius, shape type (cylindrical, conical, elliptical), part quantity and any need for seam welding after roll bending. The roll bending price varies accordingly — request a free quote by sending a drawing or sketch.

DAVI — Italian Roll Bending Precision

The DAVI MCA is one of the top 4-roller plate rolling machines in the world. Italian DAVI manufacturing, combined with Promau technology, guarantees reliability and accuracy in every roll bending job.

Conical & Elliptical Shapes

Thanks to the independent motion of each roller, the DAVI MCA performs conical part rolling (tapered rolling) and elliptical shape rolling (oval rolling) with precision — ideal for cones, jackets and transition parts.

No Flat Spots

Unlike 3-roller machines, the 4-roller DAVI rolls the plate ends fully. This eliminates flat spots — critical for tanks, silos and applications that require perfect seam welding.

Why Sheet Metal Roll Bending at Axinar

Bending radius accuracy

The Servo-Tronic CNC technology of the DAVI MCA ensures a uniform bending radius along the entire length of the plate. Sheet metal roll bending with precision — no deviations, no flat spots.

Conical & elliptical roll bending

The 4-roller DAVI performs conical part rolling (cones, transitions), elliptical shape rolling (oval) and cylindrical enclosures — full geometric freedom in metal roll bending.

Steel, Inox & aluminium roll bending

We perform steel roll bending (S235, S355), stainless steel roll bending (304, 316), aluminium roll bending, galvanised and cast iron. Cold bending of every metal sheet — the DAVI MCA rolls them all.

Tanks, silos, chimneys, ductwork

Roll bending for tanks, storage silos, chimneys, ductwork, large-diameter piping, cylindrical machine enclosures — custom roll bending for every industrial application.

4-Roller vs 3-Roller — Zero Flat Spots

The 4-roller bends both ends of the plate simultaneously — unlike the 3-roller which leaves flat spots. This eliminates flat spots, reduces setup time and simplifies seam welding.

    FAQ — Sheet Metal Roll Bending

    What is sheet metal roll bending (plate rolling)?
    Sheet metal roll bending (plate rolling) is the process of cold bending of plates through rollers, so that the flat metal sheet acquires curvature — cylindrical, conical or elliptical. At Axinar in Thessaloniki we use the 4-roller DAVI MCA with Servo-Tronic CNC, which ensures a uniform bending radius without flat spots. Maximum rolling thickness 12mm, width 2200mm, minimum radius Ø200mm.
    Which materials do you roll bend?
    We perform steel roll bending (S235, S355), stainless steel roll bending (304/316 inox), aluminium roll bending, galvanised and cast iron. The 4-roller DAVI MCA rolls every metal sheet up to 12mm thick — metal roll bending in every material and grade.
    What is a 4-roller and why is it better than a 3-roller?
    The 4-roller has two side rollers that bend both ends of the plate simultaneously, without the need to flip or re-roll. By contrast, the 3-roller leaves flat spots that require additional processing. The difference between 3-roller and 4-roller is decisive: the 4-roller DAVI MCA eliminates flat spots, reduces setup time by 50% and ensures perfect curvature for seam welding.
    Do you do roll bending of conical parts?
    Yes, the DAVI MCA performs conical part rolling (tapered rolling) thanks to the independent CNC motion of each roller — Servo-Tronic technology controls the position of each roller separately. This allows elliptical shape rolling, cones, transition parts and complex custom rolling geometries.
    How much does sheet metal roll bending cost?
    The cost of roll bending depends on the material (steel, stainless steel, aluminium), the thickness and width of the plate, the bending radius, the shape type (cylindrical, conical, elliptical) and the part quantity. The roll bending price drops significantly at higher quantities. Send us a drawing or sketch for a free roll bending quote within 24 hours.
    In which applications is roll bending used?
    Sheet metal roll bending at Axinar covers a wide range of industrial applications: roll bending for tanks, roll bending for storage silos, roll bending for chimneys, roll bending for ductwork, large-diameter piping, machine cones, jackets, curved canopies and cylindrical enclosures. Roll bending in Thessaloniki — from prototype to series production.
    What is the minimum rolling radius?
    The minimum rolling radius on the DAVI MCA is Ø200mm, depending on the thickness and material of the plate. For thick plates (e.g. 12mm steel), the minimum radius increases accordingly. The maximum radius is practically unlimited — sheet metal roll bending at any bending radius.
    Do you also handle the next steps after roll bending?
    Absolutely. Sheet metal roll bending is just the start. At Axinar in Thessaloniki we offer seam welding, laser cutting, press brake bending, CNC machining (milling, turning), MIG/TIG & laser welding, deburring, galvanizing and powder coating — all in-house, in a single production flow.
