Section Bending Machines (Angle Rolls) Operator & Technician Training

Offered by Pertecnica Engineering

Section Bending Machines, commonly known as Angle Rolls, are essential fabrication equipment used to bend structural profiles such as angles, channels, beams, pipes, and tubes into curved shapes. These machines use a set of rollers to gradually form sections into required radii without compromising structural integrity. They are widely used in industries where curved metal structures and components are required.

In modern fabrication and construction, section bending plays a vital role in producing precise curved components for structural, architectural, and industrial applications. Skilled operators and technicians are crucial to ensure accurate bending, proper machine setup, and consistent output quality. This training program focuses on practical, hands-on learning to equip participants with real-world operational skills in section bending processes.
