For 25 years, Beck Automation has helped metal forming companies modernize the machines that built their businesses.
Across the metal building industry, many shops operate equipment with solid mechanical foundations—heavy frames, reliable hydraulics, and years of proven production. However, outdated or obsolete controls and components and manual processes create inefficiencies, safety risks, and unnecessary downtime. Our focus is simple: keep what’s working, replace what’s not, and implement an integrated process from the office to the production floor.
Rollformer Controls & Connex Production Software
Rollforming lines are production workhorses, yet many rely on aging controls and manual data entry. When controls become obsolete, reliability declines and production data stays isolated.
Turn-Key Retrofits for existing equipment can include anything from a simple controller replacement, a complete controls package with new electrical cabinets and wiring, or anywhere in between.
New Equipment can also be supplied with Beck Controllers directly from the manufacturer, ready to be fully integrated with our Connex Production Software upon delivery.
By combining our controls with Connex Production Software, orders can flow from ERP and Design Programs to the line—eliminating order entry errors, reducing downtime, and providing real-time diagnostics. Production becomes measurable, accountable, and scalable.
Automation & Material Handling
We work with companies on specialized material handling and custom automation projects, integrating control upgrades, coordinated handling, and robotic support. By reducing manual interaction, standardizing sequencing, and improving workflow between machines, operators shift from physically managing material to overseeing process performance. Production becomes smoother, safer, and more predictable.
Hydraulic long folders and trim lines often involve repetitive handling and pinch-point exposure, creating safety risks and inefficiencies. Automation improves both safety and performance.
Durable machines built this industry. Today, they need intelligent systems to match.
Beck Automation helps metal forming companies move from disconnected, reactive production to integrated, data-driven manufacturing—improving safety, accuracy, and overall performance.
