Bending angle correction regarding sheet thickness

Characterization of Microstructure and Bending Response of Sheet Material: Influence of Thickness

Bending process is one of the most significant fields of application of sheet metal die. In bending process, it is quite vital that the product should have the desired angle. Furthermore, in order to obtain the desired angle in the bent parts, spring-go and spring-back amounts must be known. In this study, 30o, 60o and 90o bending processes were applied to S235JR (1.0038) sheet metal having 3, ...

Optimized Bending Sequences of Sheet Metal Bending by Robot

In the present study, a method is proposed which generates bending sequences of a sheet metal part handled by a robot. If parts are handled by a robot, the best grasping positions for each bending and the number of repositions must be indicated in advance. Using the proposed method, feasible bending sequences with grasping positions are obtained and the sequences are sorted in order of the numb...

Sheet Metal Bending : Generating Shared Setups

Contemporary process planners for sheet metal bending solve the process planning problem for individual parts. Quite often, many di erent parts can be produced on shared setups. However, plans generated by current process planning systems fail to exploit this commonality between setups and try to generate optimal setups for individual parts. In this paper, we present an algorithm for multi-part...

Sheet Metal Bending Operation Planning Using

A large number of manufacturing operation planning problems can be formulated as state space search problems In case of sheet metal bending operation planning processing a search node involves extensive geometric reasoning Such computation intensive node processing limits the number of search nodes that can be expanded in a reasonable amount of time making it di cult to solve real life operatio...
