Beam Bending
Offering decades of expertise in creating high-quality metal products, Linders Specialty Company is a full-service metal fabricator with excellent metalworking capabilities. Utilizing the latest technology, our exclusive processes are able to produce a range of rolled components within close tolerances featuring impressive repeatability. Learn about our beam rolling techniques, specifications for curved steel beams, rolled steel applications, and value-added secondary services to produce a complete curved steel component.
What is Beam Bending?
Creating curved steel beams for industrial applications is known as beam bending. Beam bending uses great force and tooling dies to bend a steel beam to application requirements. At Linders Specialty, we operate and maintain a range of high-technology machines to produce curved steel beams to your specifications. Using the latest equipment and proven production processes, we can bend steel beams in the following orientations:
- Hard Way: Tooling face perpendicular to the Beam Web
- Easy Way: Tooling face parallel to the Beam Web
As part of our bending process, we select a compatible machine for your project, ensuring that your rolled steel beam is produced within the desired tolerances and with high repeatability. By choosing a machine that individualizes the bending process, we are able to reduce material lost to trimming and provide a cost-effective premium bending service.
Specifications for Curved Metal Beams
With the latest equipment and expert methodology, Linders Specialty Company can bend steel beams with negligible and reduced natural distortion in all orientations. Additionally, our proven processes allow us to produce complex curved steel beam components with multiple bends, multiple variable radii, and compound bends to your requirements. Technical specifications for curved steel beam bending services are as follows:
- Beam Bending the Easy Way: Maximum Size of W24 x 146lbs/ft. Minimum Centerline Diameter of 20 x Flange Length
- Beam Bending the Hard Way: Maximum Size of W14 x 61lbs/ft. Minimum Inside Diameter of 30 x Web Height
Secondary Services for Curved Steel Beams
Along with our quality beam bending services, we offer value-added secondary services to produce complete curved steel beam components for the next stage in your projects. We provide welding services and metal cutting to manufacture full-service fabrications; our secondary metal cutting services include press brake forming, sawing, shearing, plasma tube cutting, and plasma plate burning. Finishing services are also available, including painting, powder coating, and sandblasting.
