Many manufacturers are now looking at moving their business from China and other Asian countries back to North America. This trend has been heightened as the global pandemic shut down borders, making it harder for manufacturing representatives to perform plant tours and quality checks and slowing of logistics impacted transportation times.
Mexico Plant Roll Forming EquipmentBringing production back to North America has numerous advantages including greater control over quality and final product, ease of communication as you’re crossing less time zones, and simplified logistics as you’re probably not shipping product. You can keep many of the labor costs advantages by considering Mexico for your re-shoring destination, where labor costs are lower but quality is still on par with U.S. manufacturing. Further, sourcing your parts closer to home can significantly cut transportation costs and allow for just-in-time delivery, saving warehousing your excess and allowing you the ability to flex so your supply meets the existing demand.

Roll forming is highly efficient for projects that require medium to high volumes, tight tolerances, and an attractive finish. One of such projects is the manufacturing of solar panel frames. Solar panel framing usually requires specialized materials, exclusive designs, and critical hole placements for field assembly. Also, these panel frames may be required in large volumes. Thankfully, roll forming produces a higher volume of products at lower costs. Here are some reasons why you should make solar panel frames with roll forming.

The Advantages of Reusable Packaging
Many of our customers place large orders for the parts they believe they will need for the quarter, but then receive those parts weekly on a just-in-time delivery basis. This helps them keep the inventory of parts low while knowing that the parts will continue to come on time. Just-in-time delivery is also great for quality control as issues can be spotted and corrected quickly.

Roll Forming Prices Driven by Raw Material Pricing
As the price of steel and other raw materials continues to fluctuate and, largely, rise, the team at Roller Die is continuing to look for new ways to ensure the best possible custom metal roll forming pricing for our customers. While we have always focused on speed and quickly quoting new parts, that has become increasingly important when the price of raw materials changes quickly. For our customers, it also means that more of the variability of the cost is driven by current raw material pricing. It also means that the window during which a quote is valid is driven by the same market trends in steel prices.
