Analysis of Linear Dimension Accuracy of Sheet Metal Bending

Abstract

Working on the design of the products obtained by the V-bending, the engineer uses the nominal thickness of the material. In this case, the problem is to evaluate the accuracy of the linear dimensions of the resulting products due to deviations in the thickness of the material and the manufacturing technology of the steel sheets. Article presents analysis of linear dimension accuracy for V-bending for the metal cold-rolled and hot-rolled sheets with thickness 1.0…8.0 mm and width from 1000…1500mm. Proposed method is based on the calculation of difference between nominal flat length and flat lengths corresponding maximum and minimum thickness of the metal sheet.
