Sheet metal bending is suitable for the precise forming and manufacturing of structural components from thin sheet metal.
Sheet metal bending is a forming process that uses a bending machine and specialized dies to apply pressure to metal sheets, causing them to undergo plastic deformation at predetermined locations to form angles, U-shapes, V-shapes, or complex cross-sections.
Sheet metal bending is suitable for structural components, housings, support parts, and multi-angle formed parts made primarily from thin sheets, offering a balance of precision, efficiency, and flexibility. It is particularly well-suited for small-batch, high-mix, and rapid delivery scenarios.

Commonly used materials include cold-rolled steel sheets, galvanized sheets, stainless steel, aluminum alloys, copper, and copper alloy sheets.
It is generally suitable for thin sheet materials from 0.5 to 6 mm, and the thickness range can be adjusted according to equipment capabilities.
Various structures such as L-shaped, U-shaped, Z-shaped, multi-angle stepped shapes, curved shapes, and surfaces can be achieved.
Bending angles and dimensions are controllable, and CNC bending machines and molds are used to ensure consistency in mass production.
Usually, there will be no significant damage; the surface is smooth and can be directly treated with processes such as spraying, electroplating, or anodizing.
