COPRA® RF - Software for Roll Forming
Whole Process Chain of Roll Forming
COPRA® RF comprises the entire engineering process of roll forming - from calculation and flower design to roll tool design, part lists and tool production. Furthermore, a comprehensive database management system for profile and tool management has been integrated. All program modules give access to a central COPRA® RF database.

What is Roll Forming?
Why Roll Forming?
- High volume production
- Consistent product quality
- Minimum material handling
- Reduced number of labour
- High tensile material forming
- Low cost tooling with high tool life
Find out the basics...watch this short instructional video produced by Students of Dalarna University. The roll forming laboratory at Dalarna University is operated by Dr. Michael Lindgren (data M Scandinavia AB).
COPRA® RF Modules
The COPRA® RF software package has got a modular structure. This means software and hardware (e.g. COPRA® RollScanner or COPRA® ProfileScan Desktop) can be customized to your requirements. You may start with individual (program) modules and develop YOUR customized solution step by step - according to the growing needs of your customers.

Software for Profiles, Tubes, Drawn Tubes and Trapezoidal Sections
The COPRA® RF software technology provides a powerful software package for every roll form designer. Design in a professional way for simple as well as highly complex profiles, tubes, drawn tubes and trapezoidal sections. By analysing the strains on the material during the forming process, COPRA® RF DTM enables the designer to determine the proper forming process even before the rolls are physically manufactured.

Easy to Learn
As all other data M programs, COPRA® RF is very user-friendly, easy to learn and guides the operator through the design process. Dialogue boxes offer explanations where necessary.
COPRA® RF is completely integrated into AutoCAD. This symbiotic conception provides the user with the possibility to use all AutoCAD and COPRA® RF functions at the same time. This means high operational comfort and fast access without loss of time caused by switching to other programs or the necessary data exchange.

State-of-the-Art Technology - Worldwide
COPRA® RF is state-of-the-art technology for cold roll formed sections – worldwide. It is the standard tool for designers in more than 50 countries and is available in 10 languages.
