Steelrode Factory



 

Look to Steelrode, one of the top steel merchants in South Africa, for innovations and technical advancements that defy belief. We produce our steel from a 30, 000 square foot factory that has introduced ingenious cutting facilities; this includes a steel slitting operation that no other production line can boast of owning. Improved delivery times, excellent quality – these are just some of the hallmarks of Steelrode.

Dual operating synchro-shear machines produce blanks at a rate of 180 sheets per minute; this is with auto-stacking. You will be ensured of a high quality steel product that meets global standard of quality. Additionally, we now introduce the Stretcher into our line-up of machines. Our factory can now level thick, high strength coil – our competitors still need to invest in this technology. A four plate high leveller can handle up to 16mm of mild steel, and process new age hard wearing steel that is at a width of 2150mm, to a length of 15 meters (this is in Domex and TIM420, 600 and 700).

The Samco rollformer has pushed us into bold new frontiers. Cold formed sections can be designed and manufactured in shorter time, with better results. South Africa has never before seen such exceptional results, as we have installed one of the first and only rollformers in the country. The Samco rollformer can create a full range of lipped channels, all on one mill. This is not all that the rollformer is limited to though, as it can produce a large assortment of open sections. Your production line will benefit from a massive amount of new materials.

Other innovations of the Samco rollformer include an in-line punching system. The punch anywhere Quad-Head system offers a large range of both slotted and round holes. For customised punching, a second fourty ton inline hydraulic press is now available for usage - contact Steelrode today for further details. Our clients can even input their AutoCAD drawings into the programming of our machines. This incorporates well with inkjet marking and inline hard stamping. Contact Steelrode today and begin a partnership with a group of steel merchants who have your best interests at heart.
