Roboform forms edge-conditions on metal components

DV has released Roboform, a low-maintenance robotic system for forming a variety of edge conditions on metal components.

It has been developed by DVA to produce options such as angled flanges or flat-hemmed safety edges.

The Roboform is suitable for automotive applications.

Michigan component-supplier Ogihara is using the system to produce a curved flange to retain a rubber seal on the window frame of the rear door of Lincoln's MKT crossover SUV.
