Bending 3 16 Steel Plate. 40724 hilden i didn t look too closely when i picked it up could my welding have warped it that much. 3 16 steel plate hot rolled. Question about making a die to bend 3 16 ar500 plate.
The bend allowance and bend deduction are two measures that relate the bent length of a piece of sheet metal to the flat length. We also do plate rolling up to 1 0 thick and 10 feet in width.
This is 3 16 thick plate that has been formed into a custom channel by being bent in two places to 90 degrees.
Therefore the bend allowance added to the flange lengths is equal to the total flat. I will be doing a total of 2000 bends. As with tread plate tooling setups that clamp perforated material before bending can overcome a lot of problems. The bend allowance describes the length of the neutral axis between the bend lines or in other words the arc length of the bend.
