Bending is manufacturing process by which metal can be deformed by plastically deforming the material and changing its shape. The material is stressed beyond its yield strenght but below its ultimate tensile strenght. There is little change to the materials surface area. Bending deduction formula refers to deformation about one axis only. Bend deduction tells us how much we need to add or
. subtract to our let lengths to get exactly what we want. Here is the basic bend deduction formula: L(t)=a+b-bd Learn more at www.prototekmachining.com/bend-deductions.html
