I tried bending the form with a heavy spring but it just collapsed the spring. Maybe I need 4 springs?
I made a punch and die to form the "U" shape. Then tried to form it with a heavy spring in a vise , but the spring just collapsed. It only bent the material slightly.
I do not have a press to run the die.
I had 1 heavy duty spring under the die in a large vise.
When I remove the spring I can form the part no problem. The rest of the part stays straight.
There are small radius on the corners of the die.
The punches and form die will all be in a die set, once I have the design figured out.
What exactly is a spring loaded pressure pad??
Is it a stripper plate with a channel "U" shape form on it, and spring loaded?
Sorry, the die will be ran in a press , coil feed stock.
I am building the die for someone. I`m just not sure of the design because the material will move when the "u " is formed.
Can I spring load a punch to form the "U"
Or preform like attached die design?
