Roll grinding to finish corners
A technique I call roll grinding is used to finish corners to match bend radii. Long weld seams that need to be rounded can be handled using a rolling technique with the disc grinder. It takes a little practice, but once you've mastered it, the results look just like a formed corner.
Thread Rolling on CNC Machines
Thread rolling produces external threads by forming the profile instead of cutting it. This guide covers where CNC thread rolling fits, why it can outperform cutting, and what shops should watch in setup.

Threads Will Roll: Drilling Performance
Roll-forming taps produce internal threads by displacing the metal under pressure rather than cutting it. This article explains how to perform the operation to achieve good quality threads. Formulas and charts help the user calculate the proper size hole and the size of tap to use for a desired thread.
Process creates steel that’s a-peeling
If you've ever watched a bar of red-hot metal emerge from the furnace at a rolling mill, you might wonder how that scaly chunk of material became the smooth, shiny and accurate length of steel you just loaded into a lathe's bar feeder. Machinists know it as cold-finished bar stock.
