Roll-Kraft increases tooling production

Roll-Kraft is installing additional large-capacity CNC machines at two of its facilities to meet an increase in requests for larger tube and pipe roll tooling from the oil and gas industry.

The additional machine at the headquarters factory in Mentor, Ohio, will produce rolls up to 40 in. dia. The Woodbridge, Ont., facility will install a machine that produces rolls up to 50 in. dia. The installations, to be completed in 30 to 45 days, will allow greater flexibility in manufacturing schedules and help improve delivery times of large tube and pipe and roll forming rolls.
