Advantage
Sheet Metal Forming is mass production solution that offers a broad range of options such as: punching, bending, roll forming, spinning, deep drawing, stretch forming, embossing, blanking Sheet Metal Forming is an excellent Low Volume - Custom Manufacturing answer for small to medium size Short Run Production parts.Sheet Metal Forming processes provide internal structures and external structures for use in the aerospace, automotive, military, medical, industrial, construction, and agricultural sectors.
Bending
Bending is a process where force is applied to a piece of sheet metal, causing it to bend at an angle and to form the desired shape (part). One bending operation causes deformation along one axis, and a sequence of several operations can create a complex part with many bends.
Process
Sheet Metal Forming processes are those in which force is applied to a piece of sheet metal to modify its geometry rather than remove any material. Sheet Metal Pressing is a process where forces are applied to a piece of sheet metal located between a punch and a die.
Sheet Metal Bending is a process where forces are to bending or stretching into complex shapes without material failure.
