Sheet-metal bend allowance and flat length calculator

Engineering calculators (Beta)

Calculate one-bend flat length from straight tangent legs or outside virtual-apex dimensions.

Inputs

Choose units and enter numbers. Full-width digits and fractions such as 1/8 or 1 3/8 are accepted. Changing a unit converts the entered value.

Results

Reference calculation only. Results do not certify suitability for an actual design or its safety.

Diagram

Inputs: select a blue symbol to edit Results: red-orange values and lines

Formula and applicability

BA=θ(R+Kt); SB=(R+t)tan(θ/2); BD=2SB−BA. Tangent legs: Lflat=A+B+BA. Outside legs: Lflat=A+B−BD. θ in radians.

Displayed values are rounded. Diagrams illustrate the calculation conditions. Initial material and fluid properties are examples; replace them with values for the actual material, temperature and conditions.

Reference
Using this information as a reference

Equations assume particular loads, supports and deformation ranges. Check inputs, units and the applicability of each equation. Diagrams explain conditions; they are not manufacturing drawings or proof of safety.

Material values are typical values or reference ranges, not certified product properties or ready-to-use design allowables. They vary with standards, product form, dimensions, temper and temperature. Check the specifications and inspection certificates for the actual product.

Displayed safety factors and checks apply only to the supplied inputs and calculation model. They do not automatically establish the safety of a complete design, including code compliance, service life, fatigue or joints. For actual design, manufacture and use, separately verify applicable regulations and standards, product specifications, and the necessary tests and engineering review.

入力・結果・適用条件を確認する

主な入力

  • 寸法の取り方

  • 反対側の長さ B
  • 板厚 t
  • 内側曲げ半径 R
  • 平板から曲げた角度 θ(内角ではない)
  • 中立面位置の係数 K(例)

得られる結果

  • 展開長 Lflat (mm)
  • 曲げ代 BA (mm)
  • 外側セットバック SB (mm)
  • 曲げ控除 BD (mm)
  • 曲げ接点までの直線長 Aₜ (mm)
  • 曲げ接点までの直線長 Bₜ (mm)

BA=θ(R+Kt); SB=(R+t)tan(θ/2); BD=2SB−BA. Tangent legs: Lflat=A+B+BA. Outside legs: Lflat=A+B−BD. θ in radians.

1曲げ・一定板厚・一定内側半径の幾何モデルです。角度は平板0°からの曲げ量で、図の内角は180°−θです。Kは内面から中立面までの距離/板厚で、材料・板厚・金型・加工法に合わせた試し曲げから確認します。0.4は例です。外側寸法モードではA・Bが仮想交点までの寸法であり、接点までの長さと混在させません。加工可能な最小R、割れ、スプリングバック、金型干渉、曲げ力は判定しません。

What this calculator does

Calculate one-bend flat length from straight tangent legs or outside virtual-apex dimensions.

Inputs, outputs and applicability

Inputs

  • Dimension convention
  • First leg A
  • Second leg B
  • Sheet thickness t
  • Inside bend radius R
  • Bend angle θ from flat, not included angle
  • Neutral-axis factor K (example)

Results

  • Flat length Lflat (mm)
  • Bend allowance BA (mm)
  • Outside setback SB (mm)
  • Bend deduction BD (mm)
  • Straight tangent length Aₜ (mm)
  • Straight tangent length Bₜ (mm)

BA=θ(R+Kt); SB=(R+t)tan(θ/2); BD=2SB−BA. Tangent legs: Lflat=A+B+BA. Outside legs: Lflat=A+B−BD. θ in radians.

Geometric one-bend model with uniform thickness and inside radius. Bend angle is measured from flat (0°); included angle is 180°−θ. K is neutral-axis distance from the inside divided by thickness and must be established for the actual material/tool/process, preferably by bend trials. 0.4 is an example. Outside-mode A/B reach the outside virtual apex; do not mix conventions. Minimum forming radius, fracture, springback, tooling collision and forming force are not assessed.
