Forming Corners Sheet Metal

The new tooling design allow to form corners in any flange height in connection with any material thickness up to 5 mm.

Forming corners sheet metal.

The sheets for doors and tops of metal junction boxes can be very large. Edgemaster products feature an extremely unique process to form corners. The corner forming radius can be. Cold forming of corners on doors or panels in any material formable mild steel stainless steel aluminum alloys and others allow us to use any material thickness and individual flange heights.

A forming process for producing sharp corners in sheet metal workpieces and a press brake useful in carrying out such a process involving a male forming die incorporating a nipple for extruding the sheet metal stock material into the adjacent region defined by the female coining die for forming a sharp corner in the workpiece. Our sheet metal corner former machine is used throughout the world in the fabrication of different parts as panels doors or road signs. The part does not need to be transported to the welding department and then again to the grinding department. Similar to tucking the corners of a bedsheet these benders twist and wrap the metal into triangle shaped folds to form corners.

This technique eliminates all welding and very often also finishing as a secondary process. This new flexible corner forming machine makes corner welding obsolete. No size limitation of parts with corner former machine. No welding no grinding no finishing.

It offers completely new opportunities in metal sheet production of doors panels and road signs without welding of corners or grinding them cold forming of corners for these applications in any formable material mild steel stainless steel aluminium allow you to use nearly any material. Flange heights up to 15 x material thickness can be formed. For example we can create a pan shaped part from a solid rectangle metal sheet in one process. Operators move the part once to the corner former.

Video describes the basic function and process of corner forming for sheetmetal pans. Economy sheet metal benders make bends up to 90 in metal sheets. Flexible corner forming gives new opportunities in sheet metal production of panels or doors. Aluminum sheet metal forming machine sheet metal corner forming angle process.

The flexible corner former for panel and door fabrication allows you to create high quality. In addition corner forming eliminates the need for stacking to weld and restacking to grind.
