How To Blanking Sheet Before Bending

The calculation methods of sheet metal bending as follows:


CNC press brakes for 90 degree sheet  bending profiles

Most of cnc press brakes  manufacturer thinks that the simplest calculation method of bending coefficient belongs to the empirical formula of 90 degree bending coefficient: 1.7 times material thickness calculation method.

Used in 90 sheet metal bending, a right angle bend minus 1.7 times the material thickness. For example, if the material is 1mm iron plate, the bending angle is 90 degrees, and the bending dimensions are 100mm and 50mm respectively, the calculation expansion method is: 100 + 50-1.7 = 148.3mm. The calculation is the expansion length.

This 1.7 is said to be 1.6 or 1.65 times. Yes, it can be slightly adjusted. Because the bending dies used by each sheet metal factory are not exactly the same, there are slight errors, and they can be used without adjustment. They can also be slightly adjusted if they have high requirements.


CNC Press brakes sheet bending over 90 degree

Sheet metal bending is not only 90 degree bending, but also have some over 90 degree bending profiles. Is there the simplest calculation method?

This is really not true. There is a calculation formula for accurately calculating the non 90 degree bending coefficient, that is, using the concept of neutral layer, calculate the arc length of the bending arc, and finally calculate the bending coefficient.

For a special angle, the bending coefficient can be calculated by a simple method. When the sheet metal bending angle is 135 degrees, the bending factor can be reduced by 0.5 times the material thickness. For example, if the material is 1mm iron plate, the bending angle is 135 degrees, and the bending dimensions are 100mm and 50mm respectively, the calculation expansion method is: 100 + 50-0.5 = 149.5mm. Other sheet metal thicknesses can also be calculated by this method. Only applicable to 135 degrees. Other angles are not available
