Sheet metal bending <\/strong>is one of the processing steps used to complete metal structural work<\/strong><\/p>\n

This process is performed using a machine known as a press brake, <\/strong>thanks to which it is possible to give the metal<\/strong> the required shape.<\/p>\n

More specifically, the machine does nothing more than apply pressure to the sheet metal, forcing it into the shape needed. Bending<\/strong> can be either hot or cold.<\/p>\n

This brief guide shows the benefits of each method, but above all, the reason why cold bending is considered the best of the two.<\/p>\n

Riva Tecnoimpianti: true industry professionals<\/h2>\n

Before starting on technical explanations of the two different types of sheet metal bending<\/strong>, it is a good idea to clarify one essential point.<\/p>\n

When deciding to commence metal structural work<\/strong><\/a>, it is always advisable to leave the job to the experts.<\/p>\n

The job will only be well done and above all, long lasting, if performed under the guidance of qualified personnel. In this regard, Riva Tecnoimpianti<\/strong>, represents the utmost excellence.<\/p>\n

The company, a leader in the metal structural work industry, can boast a team of dedicated expert professionals at its plant, which covers over 2000 m2 in Verderio<\/strong> (LC)<\/strong>, offering all customers the very best in terms of service.<\/p>\n

Riva Tecnoimpianti<\/strong> operates in various areas to cover a range of manufacturing sectors for each of which it uses the most efficient, next-generation machinery.<\/p>\n

One example comes from the Imal 3300 x 130-ton, 4-axis synchro press brake with Delem control<\/strong>, which represents one of the reasons for which the company is the best in the cold bending field.<\/p>\n

Sheet metal bending: the difference between hot and cold<\/h2>\n

As already mentioned, sheet metal bending is possible using either hot or cold techniques.<\/p>\n

Hot bending<\/strong> requires the metal to be heated beforehand so that it can bend.<\/p>\n

This bending method is used mainly for very thick sheets or to obtain bends with a very tight radius.<\/p>\n

Cold bending<\/strong>, however, is performed at ambient temperature, using a machine known as a press brake.<\/p>\n

Sheet metal bending: which technique?<\/h2>\n

After looking at the differences between the two types of method, we can now look at which one is best. The answer is simple: cold, without a shadow of a doubt. But let\u2019s see why.<\/p>\n

Cold bending<\/strong> is most commonly used because it can adapt to any type of metal sheet. It also offers quite precise, quick and above all, repeatable bends.<\/p>\n

Hot bending on the other hand, requires a slower process and is not as precise as cold. This, together with the need for specialist equipment, means that the costs are significantly higher.<\/p>\n

Riva Tecnoimpianti<\/strong> is a company with a high degree of specialisation in cold bending sheet metal.<\/p>\n

This processing technique is extremely important in industrial production, where large product quantities are required with short turnaround times.<\/p>\n

These products are generally used in building work, to make domestic appliances etc.<\/p>\n

The main stages in sheet metal bending<\/h2>\n

There are three main stages in bending sheet metal. First of all, preparation of the material<\/strong> and setting the bending parameters<\/strong>. After which, the bending process<\/a> is performed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Once this step has been completed, the piece goes to quality control. This stage, in particular, is performed by Riva Tecnoimpianti<\/strong> with the utmost care and attention to be sure of offering a job well done, free from errors.<\/p>\n

The thickness and dimensions of the material for processing are chosen according to the customer\u2019s requirements.<\/p>\n
