BNN talks about Tata nano the ‘peoples car’ and how Samco helps make it happen

I was watching Business News Network (BNN) and saw an interview on Squeeze Play that caught my interest. In the interview president and COO, of Samco Machinery Bob Repovs’ talked about his company. He discussed how business can learn to thrive during a down economy. Specifically, how they helped Tata nano build cars in India. Theirroll forming machine is used to help build parts for the automaker.

It is surprising how a company in Canada can help manufactures around the world build products for the automotive, building and construction, roofing and appliance industries. I didn’t know that roll formers were more cost effective then other forms of metal forming such as brake presses and stamping machines. I understand that you can bend all kinds of metal thick or thin in to many complex shapes. The critical roll tooling is the most important part of the machine. It allows the sheet metal to be bent in to precise shapes as it moves through the tooling. 
 
When I researched Samco Machinery as a leader in theroll forming industry I came across many interesting pages on their website. They have detailed information about purlin roll forming machines, corrugated roll formers, stud and track roll former and many other machines used in bending metal. I would suggest anyone interested in learning how roll formers work to go to the best roll forming company I found online.
