Capabilities / Cutting + forming

Steel and aluminum cutting and forming.

DSM combines accurate cutting, bending, rolling, and heavy forming to create the profiles and assemblies the larger program requires.

Material in motion

Cut the profile. Form the system.

DSM plans cutting and forming around the part’s geometry, final fit and any subsequent welding, machining or finishing.

Cutting + forming

Cut

Laser + shear

CNC fiber laser cutting for steel and aluminum up to 1 inch, plus CNC plasma and 12 ft plate shearing.

Bend

Press brake forming

500-ton press brake forming with a 20 ft bed for larger formed work.

Roll

Plate rolling

Plate roll capacity up to 10 feet for cylinders, cones, transitions, arcs, and application-specific sections.

Frequently asked questions

Do you cut and form steel and aluminum?

Yes. DSM’s cutting and forming capabilities include CNC fiber laser, plasma, shearing, press brake forming and plate rolling. Material grade, thickness and geometry determine the process. View equipment ratings.

How do you confirm cutting and forming fit?

Maximum thickness, bed length and tonnage are starting points for review. Submit the drawing, material and bend or roll details so DSM can confirm tooling, geometry and handling fit.

Can formed parts be welded or machined afterward?

Yes. Forming can be connected to welding, machining, finishing and assembly. Include those requirements in the RFQ so the quote reflects the finished deliverable. See welding and assembly.
