Abstract: Methods and apparatus to control roll-forming processes are disclosed. A disclosed example roll-forming apparatus includes an inlet portion to receive material, an outlet portion from which the material exits the roll-forming apparatus, a plurality of rollers extending between the inlet and outlet portions, a sensor to measure at least one dimension of the material as the material moves through the roll-forming apparatus, the material measured by the sensor between the inlet and outlet portions, and material adjuster circuitry to adjust roll-forming of the material by moving at least one of the plurality of rollers based on the at least one dimension.

Abstract: Apparatus, systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are disclosed herein that flexibly form variable component geometries in a roll-forming process. An example roll-forming apparatus includes a forming unit to move along a stationary component to form a cross-section in the component, a first roll operatively coupled to the forming unit to engage the component, and a second roll operatively coupled to the forming unit to set a forming angle for movement along the component, the component formed between the first roll and the second roll.
