BENDING THIN WALLED EXTRUSION


Sai

Recommended Posts

We have to radius a thin walled Aluminium channel. Has any one got some information regarding how to bend tubes and pipes by encapsulating them in some low melting point alloy??

 

The reason I have to encapsulate is the channel deforms when we fill it and radius. Its T5 Aluminium with a wall thickness of 0.08"

The problem we are facing is what kind of mold material should I use to encapsulate. In other words I need some reusable mold ( becoz I have to ben some 700 pieces) in which I can put my channel and pour the alloy to encapsulate. Is there a particular material with which I can make this mold???
