Sheet Metal Bending

From the Sheet Metal Shearing & Bending program, this Sheet Metal Bending segment concentrates mainly on the terms defining a bend, such as the neutral axis, bend allowance, bend radius, and springback, and focuses on the primary bending machine - the press brake. Various examples of press brake dies, gaging, and bending operations, such as air bending, and bottom bending, are shown, as well as, a segment on folding technology.
