Why functions get lost in a bend
When a profile bends, the outer wall stretches and the inner wall is compressed. Thin walls, open channels and small details react first: a click connection can close up, a screw channel can deform and cooling fins can lean over.
How we keep them intact
We look at the cross section before we choose a technique. Stretch bending keeps a profile under tension, so details stay in line. Where needed we fill or support the profile during bending, or machine critical details after bending.
What to send us
Send the profile drawing, the alloy and temper, the radius and the functions that must keep working. Our engineers will tell you what is possible and where a small change in the design makes the bend easier.
