Bending technology is often associated with various processes and machines employed in sheet metal fabrication. Such machines include both press brakes and panel benders, but press brakes are the most ...

Many applications require steel to be shaped and curved, highlighting the importance of maintaining a sufficient level of ductility to enable bending without allowing ...

Quite literally, books have been written on the topic of bending sheetmetal to form useful shapes. We don’t intend to duplicate all that knowledge here, but rather give you, the home fabricator and ...

If you want to bend metal to make shapes, you might use equipment like a brake. But if you don’t have one, no worries. You can still do a lot with common tools like a vise and torches. [Bwrussell] ...
