      CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 4 ]CHAPTER ONE1.0    INTRODUCTION1.1    Importance of Sheet Metal Work and Bending MachineWhat is a metal? It is a strong shinny, which conducts electricity and melts when you make it hot enough. But surely metal must be something more than this because there are other substances such as carbon,, glass and rubbers, which are, obviously not metals but can also variously claim to have strength, elasticity or electrical conductivity.Furthermore, most of the metals will melt when heated sufficient. What then is a metal? A study of simple metallurgy will show that there is one important factor, ... Continue Reading

      CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 4 ]Fig 2.6: Over bending to compensate for spring back.The nose of the bending blade is at an angle of 45° to allow for over bending when bending at 900. After the force applied is released, the material spring back and the required bend is achieved. Fig 2.6(b) shows a bend having a spring back angle i.e. distance between the over bending and the assumed position.2.6 Method of Determining Angle of Spring BackThe only practicable method to determine spring back is by experiment, others are based on approximation due to the presence of any variables influencing spring back. Shown in table 2.1 is ... Continue Reading

         

      CHAPTER THREE - [ Total Page(s): 5 ]A little consideration will show that when a beam is subjected to the bending moment, the metal on the upper side of the beam will be shortened due to compression and those on the lower side will be elongated due to tension. It may be seen that somewhere between the top and bottom plane, there is a surface at which the metal s neither shortened nor lengthened. Such a surface is called “Neutral surface” The intersection of the neutral surface with any normal cross-section of the beam is known as “Normal axis”. The stress distribution of a beam is shown in the fig. 31 and ... Continue Reading

         

      CHAPTER FOUR - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER FOURCOMPONENT DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION     Sand casting is one of the quickest and most cost effective methods adopted in the production of metal prototypes and is an excellent solution for low to medium run of pasts that do not require a specific or precise shape repeatability.    The summary of making  a cast material using sand casting process are as follows.1.    A mold was created by placing the mixture of sand, clay and water on a pattern, and when the pattern was removed the clay had a cavity that corresponds to the shape of the pattern.2.    The sand molded has two ...

      CHAPTER FIVE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER FIVE5.1    Analysis Every sector of the economy is experiencing changes. The production sector is not left out of the changes, infact it is more affected. Sheet metal today is used for doors, windows, frames, gates, etc.It’s worthy to mention, however that the road side welders have developed various ways of bending sheet metal manually, but most often, they generally have poor finishing. As a result, their output does not justify their effort or input.It could be said, that the present design is an improvement on the road side fabricators design of a bending machine. Therefo ...
