If you are a press brake operator, the bending calculation slider below will be a handy tool for calculating tonnage and the suitable V opening of the bottom tool. Select the thickness and enter the full bending length; the chart provides the information.
We are always studying the tooling requirement of the customers into details and offering them the most suitable and efficient tooling. After buying Rolla-V tooling from us, time to time you may need to make new calculations to see how much tonnage you need, if your machine or top and bottom tool is capable to bend, what can be the minimum flange etc. For this reason we prepared the sheet below which will be helpful for your quick calculations and tell your customer if you can bend that product or not. Keep in mind that real time conditions will always be different than the formulations because material quality may vary.
