The bend deduction values in the sample bend table spreadsheets are based on formula however the true value of a bend table is the ability to provide measured results from your machinery and tooling which may not be uniform across all angles and radii. When the sheet metal is put through the process of bending the metal around the bend is deformed and stretched. You can generate flat patterns by unfolding sheet metal features using a uniformly applied.

A bend table is a table of bend deductions arranged in rows and columns. Create bend tables for sheet metal materials. Each row in a bend table specifies a bend angle. When unfolding if a bend radius or angle does not correspond to a specific entry a process interpolates between adjacent values in the table.

Tolerances determines if a parameter in the part model is valid. The table arranges bend deductions in rows and columns. Browse to the autodesk inventor version design data bend tables folder. Bend tables for sheet metal materials.

Autodesk inventor webinar series. A bend table specifies the bend allowance for a specified material thickness at specific radii and bend angles for the flat pattern analyzer. Autodesk inventor webinar series. T1 represents the default sheet metal thickness specified in the sheet metal styles dialog box.

Each column specifies a bend radius. If a specific bend angle or bend radius is not in the table the flat pattern analyzer interpolates between adjacent cells to determine a value. Double click a bend table. Autodesk inventor provides sample imperial and metric bend tables as spreadsheet files.
