Last week we had our re certification audit for our ISO certification.   I was very pleased,  with the  results,  and our team did a great job.  I want to  especially  thank Mike Warfield who is our Quality Director for his efforts.

A lot of Roller Formers are not ISO qualified, so be careful when you are looking for a supplier for this should provide you the buyer with some confidences that we are doing what we say we are.

If you have any questions please send them to us.

Thanks

It is funny to me that everyone is just starting to do this.   At RDF, we have been working on this for the last five years.  We have reduced the number of wood skids that we receive our material on.   We have also been willing to work with our customers on using returnables.  Last year, we removed all of the old lights in the plant and replaced them with newer models that will reduce the amount of  light bulb changes and waste.  They actually provide more light at half the cost.

In addition to this we have been looking at our lubricants that we use in the plant, this make sense from a people perspective, and from an environmental  one as well. We use a water soluble solution that evaporates while it is drying.

There are several reason why to use Roll Forming Vs Mill Iron, or Angle Iron.

1)  Roll Forming offers a lot of different lengths Vs standard 8, 10, 12, 20 foot section, so we can reduce the cost of cutting to length.

2) Roll Formed parts will have shaper corners, and better control over angularity of the angles.

3) With Roll Forming we can add any hole combination without using a secondary punch press.

Roller Die is acquiring some new equipment this year.  we are in the process of purchasing a new 3 1/2 inch line.   This will give us a lot more capabilities in the heavy gauge area.    Please give us a call regarding any projects or questions about this machine.
