The K-factor is the bending capacity of sheet metal, and by extension the forumulae used to calculate this. [1] [2] [3] Mathematically it is an engineering aspect of geometry. [4] Such is its intricacy in precision sheet metal bending [5] (with press brakes in particular) that its proper application in engineering has been termed an art. [4] [5]
For sheet metal forming analysis within the metal forming process, a successful technique requires a non-contact optical 3D deformation measuring system. The system analyzes, calculates and documents deformations of sheet metal parts, for example. It provides the 3D coordinates of the component's surface as well as the distribution of major and ...
A forming limit diagram, also known as a forming limit curve, is used in sheet metal forming for predicting forming behavior of sheet metal. [1] [2] The diagram attempts to provide a graphical description of material failure tests, such as a punched dome test. In order to determine whether a given region has failed, a mechanical test is performed.
K-factor (Elo rating system), a constant used in Elo rating system; K-factor (marketing), the growth rate of websites, apps, or a customer base; K-factor (sheet metal), the ratio of location of the neutral line to the material thickness; The K Factor, a fictional TV show within Harry Hill's TV Burp; Bondi k-factor, the "k" in Bondi k-calculus
A joggle bend in sheet metal (at top of image) and a hand joggling tool Joggling , [ 5 ] also known as joggle bending , is an offset bending process in which two opposite bends with equal angles are formed in a single action creating a small s-shape bend profile and an offset between the unbent face and the result flange that is typically less ...
Today the metal forming industry is making increasing use of simulation to evaluate the performing of dies, processes and blanks prior to building try-out tooling. Finite element analysis (FEA) is the most common method of simulating sheet metal forming operations to determine whether a proposed design will produce parts free of defects such as fracture or wrinkling.
Republican hardliners who normally are ardent supporters of President-elect Donald Trump are resisting his push to raise the U.S. debt ceiling, sticking to their belief that government spending ...
The surface modifying factor, , is related to both the tensile strength, , of the material and the surface finish of the machine component. k S = a S u t b {\displaystyle k_{S}=aS_{ut}^{b}} Where factor a and exponent b present in the equation are related to the surface finish.
