How to Use Datam Copra RF v.2005 SR1 for Roll Forming Design and Simulation
Datam Copra RF v.2005 SR1 is a software package that allows you to design and simulate roll forming processes for various metal profiles. Roll forming is a technique that involves bending a sheet of metal into a desired shape by passing it through a series of rollers. Datam Copra RF v.2005 SR1 helps you to optimize the roll forming process by reducing material waste, improving product quality, and increasing production efficiency.

In this article, we will show you how to use Datam Copra RF v.2005 SR1 for roll forming design and simulation. We will cover the following topics:
How to create a new project and import a profile sketch
How to define the material properties and the roll forming parameters
How to generate the roll tooling and the flower pattern
How to run the simulation and analyze the results
How to export the data and the reports
By following these steps, you will be able to use Datam Copra RF v.2005 SR1 for your own roll forming projects.
How to create a new project and import a profile sketch
The first step is to create a new project and import a profile sketch. A profile sketch is a 2D drawing of the cross-section of the final product. You can create your own profile sketch using any CAD software, or you can use one of the predefined profiles that come with Datam Copra RF v.2005 SR1.
To create a new project and import a profile sketch, follow these steps:
Open Datam Copra RF v.2005 SR1 and click on File > New Project.
Enter a name for your project and choose a folder to save it.
Select the unit system (metric or imperial) and click OK.
Click on File > Import Profile Sketch and browse to the location of your profile sketch file.
Select the file format (DXF, DWG, IGES, etc.) and click Open.
The profile sketch will appear on the screen. You can zoom in or out, pan, or rotate the view using the mouse or the toolbar buttons.
If necessary, you can edit the profile sketch using the tools on the left panel. For example, you can trim, extend, fillet, or offset the lines and curves.
When you are satisfied with the profile sketch, click on File > Save Project to save your changes.
How to define the material properties and the roll forming parameters
The next step is to define the material properties and the roll forming parameters. The material properties include the thickness, width, density, yield strength, tensile strength, elongation, and modulus of elasticity of the metal sheet. The roll forming parameters include the line speed, strip tension, bending radius, springback factor, and friction coefficient.
To define the material properties and the roll forming parameters, follow these steps:
Click on Project > Material Properties.
Enter the values for the material properties or select them from the drop-down lists.
Click OK to confirm.
Click on Project > Roll Forming Parameters.
Enter the values for the roll forming parameters or select them from the drop-down lists.
Click OK to confirm.
How to generate the roll tooling and the flower pattern
The third step is to generate the roll tooling and the flower pattern. The roll tooling is the set of rollers that shape
the metal sheet into the desired profile. The flower pattern is a graphical representation of how
