Development of a Technology for Bending U-Profiles
Funding: | BMWi/ZIM-ZF |
Project: | ZF4101104US6 |
Contact: | Johannes Gebhard M. Sc. |
Bending of metal profiles is currently restricted to high bending radii and, therefore, bent products are limited to spacious constructions.
Damage in Sheet Metal Bending of Lightweight Profiles
