Safety Protocol
Theoretical Limits and Operational Safety
This application calculates tonnage based on "Air Bending" principles. "Bottoming" or "Coining" operations may require 3 to 5 times more tonnage than these values.
Calculations assume homogeneous material. In actual production, material quality, grain direction, temperature, and operator experience may affect results.
Tool Life
Excessive tonnage can cause tool breakage.
Machine Deflection
Check crowning requirement for accuracy.
Safety Factor
Always add 20-30% safety margin.
