The following 4 points are some common problems and corresponding solutions in Metal Plate Press Brake working, Wuxi Shearchy summarized for you.
Common Problems and Solutions of Sheet Metal Bending
Case 1: bend side is straight and the dimensions are unstable
Reason:
- The design process did not arrange the pressure line or pre-bending process
- Pressure of the plate is not enough
- Convex mold fillet wear asymmetry or bend force uneven
- Its height size is too small
Solution:
- Design pressure line or pre-bend process in CNC hydraulic press brake working
- Increase the press pressure
- Convex mold clearance uniform and fillet polishing
- Height dimensions cannot be less than the minimum limit size
Case 2: outer surface of work piece is seriously scratched after metal plate press brake forming
Reason:
- Raw material surface is not smooth
- The pressbrake bend radius of press brake punch is too small
- Hydraulic press brakes bending gap too small
Solution:
- Improve the smoothness of the upper and lower dies
- Increase the bending radius of brake press punch
- Also, adjust plate bend clearance
Case 3: uneven bottom of bending machine dies
Reason:
- Firstly, uneven material
- Secondly, small contact area between roof and material or insufficient jacking force
- Thirdly, there is no ejector in the die
Solution:
- Leveling metal materials
- Adjust the jacking device to increase the jacking force
- Or, add jacking device or correction
- Addition and shaping process
Case 4: deformation in width direction of sheet metal after bending
In detail, the curved part has bow deflection in the width.
Reason:
- Torsion and deflection are caused due to the difference of drawing and shrinkage in the width direction of the part
Solution:
- Increase bender pressure
- Add correction process
- Also, ensure that there is a certain angle between material grain direction and metal plate press brake bending direction
