Rollformer Efficiency: Material Lubrication For Roll Forming Mills

The most commonly used lubricant to aid the rollforming of building panels is vanishing oil. This product provides the necessary lubrication for the forming process and also has the advantage of evaporating over time to permit ease of handling and installation at the construction site.However, the vanishing oil or other lubricant should contain at least 95% solvents or be a water-based lubricant that leaves minimal residue. Care should be taken to allow the roll formed panels to be completely dried prior to shipment. No lubricants should be used on either acrylic coated GALVALUME or Galvanized steel that U. S. Steel identifies as ACRYLUME2 or ACRYZINC3, respectively. Inadequate lubrication can cause problems with the roll former operation and/or in the finished panel. A common problem within the roll former is the bonding (welding or fusion)of coil coated products to the roll tooling. This is time consuming to remove.
