Most common forming method |
Air bending |
|
Points of contact when air bending |
3 point |
|
Final inside bend radius when air bending determined by |
V-die |
|
20% rule |
Width of die opening x 20% equals bend radius. (2" die x .20 = .4" bend radius) |
|
Outside setback of bend |
Distance between tangent point of radius and apex if bend |
|
-------◇----------◇--------- |
Brake line |
|
8x die rule applies to material up to |
3/8" |
|
Die opening rule for material over 1/2" |
10x |
|
When radius is less than 63% of material thickness, bend is considered |
Sharp |
|
Any holes within outside setback will |
Distort |
|
Light gauge metal formed with |
Leaf brakes, pan brakes, box brakes |
|
Press capacity base on |
Bending mild steel over 8x die |
|
"K" in K factor represents |
Neutral axis |
|
Minimum bend radius determines |
Limit of bending before material splitting occurs |
|
Coining used on material thicknesses of |
12 gauge or thinner |
|
2 factors for tonnage requirements |
Material type and thickness |
|
Press has more tonnage for a lower cost |
Hydraulic press |
|
4 factors to determine capacity |
Length of workpiece, thickness of Material, type and grade of Material, sharpness of bend |
|
Bending type faster and more accurate |
Bottom bending |
|
Bending type better for light gauge production, not suitable for heavy material |
Bottom bending |
|
Die has 90° angle |
Bottom bending die |
|
Die has 85° angle |
Air bending die |
|
Bend allowance determined by |
Type and grade of Material, thickness of Material, width of die opening, radius of upper die |
|
A sweep to check bends |
Bend set |
|
Bend radius is equal to |
Material thickness |
|
Press brake capacity base on |
Bending mild steel over 8x die opening |
|
Inside radius is what % of die opening |
15% |
|
Uses excessive amount of tonnage to place punch tip into and last the neutral axis of the bend |
Coining |
|
What is a sharp bend |
Inside radius is less than 63% of the material thickness |
