The aerospace industry is a significant innovation source, from changing modern transportation to landing on the moon. Technological advancements made in this sector enhance defense applications, enable safe and efficient air travel, and improve communication capabilities.
Take your aerospace project to new heights with high-quality metal bending from Tube-Tec Bending, an industry-leading metal beam, bar, tube, and pipe bending service provider. Our area of expertise is conventional and custom shapes for critical applications.
The Criticality of Quality Metal Bending
Aerospace applications utilize a range of strong but lightweight exotic materials that must be bent at unique angles to produce efficient, capable, and competitive aerospace components and assemblies. Most metals, however, don’t bend effortlessly and are hard to manufacture to precise tolerances.
The following defects are typical results of substandard metal bending processes.
- Rippling
- Wrinkling
- Cracking
- Flattening
- Splitting
- Wall thining
- Buckling
- Galling
- Scoring
- Dragging
Incorporating poorly bent metals in your aerospace application has risks. Any nonconformity negatively impacts humans and the environment. Additionally, failures can result in production downtime, lost revenues, and damaged company perception.
