In this article, we will delve into these formulas, uncovering the principles and mathematics that make precision pipe bending possible.
The unit of bending stiffness, often denoted as “EI,” depends on the units used for the individual components in the formula. The formula for bending stiffness is: EI=E⋅I Where: The typical unit of modulus of elasticity (E) is Pascals (Pa)… Read More »What is the unit of bending stiffness?
When it comes to bending aluminum, elongation at break is a critical parameter that should not be overlooked. This mechanical property holds the key to the formability and ductility of the material, both of which are indispensable in bending processes.
Minimum Thickness: There is a minimum thickness that can be successfully bent without causing defects. Below this threshold, cracking or other forms of material failure may occur.
Minimum Bend Radius: The minimum bend radius is the smallest radius that the aluminum can be bent without causing cracking or excessive deformation. This value depends on the alloy, temper, and thickness of the material.
Stretch forming aluminum extrusions is a metal forming process used to shape and contour aluminum extrusions, typically for applications that require complex and curved shapes.
Stretch forming aluminum extrusions involves elongating or stretching an aluminum extrusion over a die or a form block, allowing the material to conform to the desired shape without causing significant thinning or material loss.
