AIR BENDING
TONNAGE CHART
Required press force at 90 degrees air bending , force in t/m.
​
The charts below give the appropriate tonnage to air bend mild steel.
Bending force other metals.
​
Soft aluminium: Tons per unit lenght x 50%
Aluminium alloys heat treated: Tons per unit lenght x 100%
Stainless: Tons per unit lenght x 150%
Bottoming: Tonnage requirements are three to five times greater than for air bending.
CNC metal bending offers significant advantages for both short and long production runs. For short runs, CNC bending provides exceptional flexibility and fast setup times, allowing manufacturers to quickly adapt to design changes or custom orders without sacrificing precision. This efficiency reduces lead times and minimizes waste, making it ideal for prototyping and small-batch manufacturing. For long production runs, CNC bending ensures consistent, repeatable quality across thousands of parts, improving product reliability and reducing the need for costly rework. Additionally, the automation of CNC systems lowers labor costs and increases production speed, maximizing overall productivity and profitability.
