Allowable Bend Radius

Feb 17, 2007 0 Replies

I am trying to create sheetmetal gauge tables based on thickness information provided to me by my fabricator. The SW tables include a column labeled "Allowable Bend Radius". I don't know what to put there. I wonder if anyone can help. I can contact my vendor on Monday, but it'd be nice to get some work done over the weekend. I am going to try to leave that column blank for now and see what blows-up.



The SW sample files include a number of radii per line. I don't see the logic behind the numbers other than the smallest radius called out is rounded up from the material thickness.



Thanks,


-Martin
