Curves

Every profile has a natural, or “self” curve.This self-curve is mainly dependant on the depth of the profile.The shallower the profile, more easy it is to follow a curve. i.e. the radius can be tighter.

The minimum self curve parameters of Euroclad Profiles are as follows :-

  • red Euroseam (0.9mm) Alum = 45 metres
    red Euroseam (0.9mm) Steel = 50 metres
    red SF500 (Secret Fix) = 50 metres
    red 38mm (Forward) = 45 metres
    red 32mm (Forward) = 40 metres
    red MW5 R = 40 metres
    red 20mm (Liner) = 35 metres
    red 19mm (Liner) = 35 metres

Pre-Curved Profiled Sheets

For radii smaller than those achieved by self-curving, a “crimp”, or “cranked” curve process is required for trapezoidal profiles. This entails a profile sheet to have an additional manufacturing process. This is done on a press break tool. An individual crease, or “crimp” is formed in the profile.

The minimum curve parameters of CRANKED Euroclad Profiles are as follows :-

  • red Euroseam (0.9mm) Alum = 1.5 metres (Convex)
    red 38mm (Forward) = 250 mm
    red 32mm (Forward) = 250 mm
    red MW5 R = 250 mm
    red 20mm (Liner) = 225 mm
    red 19mm (Liner) = 225 mm

 

  • Smooth Curved Profile Sheets

    For smooth curves a series of profile rollers CNC controlled for accuracy are used to create the curved form of the profile. The latest is repeatable accurate curving machinery is employed at Euroclad.

  • The minimum curve parameters of SMOOTH CURVED Euroclad Profiles are as follows :-

  • red Sinusoidal 13.5 -(0.7mm) steel = 3 metres

  • Euroseam Profiles can be smooth curved to a minimum Convex or Concave of 5 Metres.

  • Waveform or multiradius sheet are possible. Enabling production of various shapes.

  • red 5 metres radius Smooth Curve Convex
    red 5 metres radius Smooth Curve Concave
    red Waveform curves to 5 metres minimum
    red Multiradius curves to 5 metres minimum

    • For radii below 5 metres,please seek Euroclad technical Advice.
