Steel Tube Bending: Gai Abraham's LEV Automotive Engineering Question
thank you all as I will try to take this Lev to production I am hoping to use the Stainless steel ASTM 301 in its 1/2 or 3/4 hard modes. the limit of bending of these two is bound by the percentage of longation so if I use a too small a radius I might crack it. on the autocad program I...- ga5aq

Steel Tube Bending: Gai Abraham's LEV Automotive Engineering Question
Uhm that's the real question, I don't really know how the bending machine works, I guess that there is a concave roller on either side of the tube and the roller turns on a radious predefined supporting the inner tube while the outer roller goes on bending it on the outside. what's your...- ga5aq
