About Johnson Bros. Metal Forming Co.
From http://www.johnsonrollforming.com

Johnson Bros. beginning occurred when Edwin Johnson, Sr. decided to go into business himself. In 1947, he started constructing the company's first roll forming machine (now in storage) in his basement. He had offered his five brothers and equal share of the business if they matched is life savings, $700 investment. One brother, Harold Johnson, did; hence the name Johnson Bros.

When the first machine was finished and tested it had to be disassembled, carried from his basement and reassembled in Edwin's garage. After a few months the neighbors complained about the noise as production of small orders began and Edwin was forced to find new quarters. He found an uninsulated, dirt-floor garage that had formerly been a stable at Cicero Ave. and Chicago Blvd. in Chicago. The brothers, Edwin Sr. and Harold, insulated the garage/plant, built a small office and heated the building with a small stove in the cold months.

World's smallest flying cutoff press & runout tableThe nature of Johnson Bros. roll forming has seen an evolution from a lockseam and openseam tubing emphasis, which accelerated their growth, to a diversity of shapes for many industrial uses and now to sophisticated computer controlled in-line fabrication. Their forming of all types of metals prefinished or plain, in thickness from .004" to .188", into many shapes have virtually gone to every state in the continental U.S., Canada, Mexico and parts of Europe. Sales have grown to seven million with 36 fulltime and six part-time employees. Outsourcing has made it difficult for American manufacturers and Johnson Bros. in the last few years but the future now looks very promising.

  1. December 4, 2007 — "Roll Forming or Stamping?"
    Johnson Bros. Has the ability to roll form metal parts as an alternative (with lower die costs), to long metal stampings that incur extremely high tooling costs. "Very Expensive" stamping dies for longer parts and for parts with length changes, can be prohibitive enough to merit a look into roll forming your parts as opposed to having them produced as stampings. Please contact us for these jobs where lower cost tooling is a must on longer parts, over 6" in most cases. We can provide prices for...
