Cold-formed steel profiles offer light, durable and economical solutions in the construction industry. While these profiles increase the durability of structures thanks to their high strength and flexibility features, they also provide great advantages in the design and application processes.
What is Cold Formed Steel?
Cold-formed steel is steel profiles obtained by bending and shaping processes at room temperature. This method allows the steel sheet to be shaped into the desired form by passing it between presses and rollers. In this way, thinner and lighter profiles are obtained while high strength properties are maintained.
The Importance of Quality and Performance Increase
Improving the quality and performance of cold-formed steel profiles is critical for the safety and durability of structures. The increase in quality and performance makes the profiles longer-lasting, durable and environmentally friendly. It also contributes to accelerating construction processes and reducing costs.
Light Steel Machines
Light steel machines used to increase quality and performance offer high precision and efficiency. These machines are equipped with automatic control systems and enable profiles to be produced within the desired tolerances. In this way, error-free and high quality products are obtained.
Design Software
Design software enables the use of cold-formed steel profiles with optimum performance. These software allow engineers and architects to analyze the features and usage areas of the profiles in detail during the design phase of the projects. Thus, structures are ensured to be safer and more durable.
Production Software
Production software ensures quality control at every stage of the production process. These software make it possible to monitor and optimize all parameters on the production line. It also contributes to reducing costs by increasing production efficiency. Quality control processes make it easier to detect and correct defective products.
Engineering Solutions
Engineering solutions maximize the performance of cold-formed steel profiles. These solutions offer significant advantages such as increasing the load-carrying capacity of the profiles and increasing their resistance to natural disasters such as earthquakes and wind. It also makes significant contributions to energy efficiency and sustainability.
