Bending Engineering Reference
1. Core Bending Equations
Bend Allowance (BA) measures the length of the neutral axis within the bend area. It represents the material added:BA = (Angle_Rad) * (R + K * T)
Outside Setback (OS) is the distance from the tangent point of the bend to the apex of the mold corner:OS = tan(Angle / 2) * (R + T)
Bend Deduction (BD) is the difference between outside lengths and flat pattern length, subtracting excess material:BD = 2 * OS - BA
