Structural design knowledge of sheet metal parts(III): Structural criteria for bending parts
1. Minimum bending radius of plate When the material is bent, on the fillet area, the outer layer is stretched and the inner layer is compressed. When the material thickness is constant, the smaller the inner radius R is, the more serious the tension and compression of the material are; When the tensile stress of the outer fillet exceeds the ultimate strength of the material, cracks and fractures will occur. Therefore, too small bending fillet radius should be avoided in the structural design of bending parts. The minimum bending radius is specified for this purpose. L bending radius refers to…
