Issue:
A few bent table templates are available in Sheet Metal Attributes.
What are these bend tables, and what are the differences between them?
Solution:
These bend table templates are saved under the SMD_K_FACTOR_TABLE folder in the installation path of ZW3D:
Quick Comparison Table
| Templates | Bend Allowance formula | Bend Allowance Table | Bend Deduction Table | Bend table | KFactor from material |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quick definition | A table to calculate the Bend Allowance(BA) | A lookup table containing pre-calculated BA values for common situations. | A lookup table containing pre-calculated BD values for common situations. | A lookup table of the K-factor according to multiple parameters. | A lookup table of the K-factor according to the material. |
| The used Attributes/ Parameters | Material, Angular, Thickness, Radius, Angular range. | Unit, Material, Radius, Thickness. | Material, Unit, Radius, Thickness. | Unit, Material, Angle, Thickness, Radius. | Material. |
* Bend Allowance(BA): The length of the neutral-axis arc in the bend zone.
* Bend Deduction(BD): L1+L2-L0
* BA and BD are not equal for the same bend. Generally, BD > BA.
