90°? The Metal Disagrees.

90°? The Metal Disagrees.

You bend sheet metal to 90°… and it springs back a little. 📐

That’s springback—the material releases some of the stress from bending and tries to return toward its original shape.

So the press brake may bend beyond 90° to get the final angle you actually want.

Metal has opinions. Engineering has to negotiate. 🛠️
