Significance and Use5.1 This bend test provides information as to the formability or the ability of copper and copper alloy strip to resist crackingwhen being formed.5.2 This tes

16、t method can be used as a quality control tool to determine if material will form to a given radius.5.3 This test method is also useful in research and development to provide data for use in selecting a spring material that willsafely form to the geometry of a given part.5.4 The results are suitable

17、 for direct application in design and manufacturing, only when all factors such as the geometry ofthe part, punch and die design, lubrication, stamping speed, and other material properties are known.6. Apparatus6.1 Various devices are suitable for 90 or 180 bend testing. The apparatus shall provide

18、these features:6.1.1 90 Bend Test FixtureAn illustration of this test fixture is shown in Fig. 2. A specimen rests on a pair of pins, rollers,or radiused flat supports; a pin, mandrel, or 90 V-block punch of a given bend radius for applying the bending force directly atthe mid-length.6.1.2 180 Bend

19、Test FixtureAn illustration of this test fixture is shown in Fig. 3. A specimen rests on a pair of pins, rollers,or radiused flat supports; a pin, mandrel, or 180 punch of a given bend radius for applying the bending force directly at themid-length. Dial indicators with a precision of 0.0005 in. (0.

20、013 mm) or better are necessary to accurately position the twosupports.6.1.2.1 To prevent breaking the punch, it is recommended not to use a radius smaller than 12 the thickness of the material beingtested and in no case should the punch size be less than .005 in. (0.127 mm).FIG. 1 DirectionDirectio

22、s, rolls, mandrels, and radius flats must exceed the width of the specimen; they must be strong enoughand sufficiently rigid to resist significant deformation.7. Test Specimens7.1 Five specimens are required for this test.7.2 The test specimens may be prepared by cutting, shearing, or stamping.7.3 T

23、he test specimens shall have a width of 12 6 116 in. (12.7 6 1.57 mm) and of any convenient length greater than 12 in.(12.7 mm) unless specified otherwise by purchaser.7.4 Direction of Specimen:7.4.1 The bending characteristics of a metal vary with the orientation of the bends to the direction of ro

24、lling. A longitudinal orgood way bend will take a sharper bend radius than a transverse bend. This characteristic becomes more pronounced as the metalthickness increases.7.4.2 In a longitudinal (good way bend) specimen, its length shall be parallel to the direction of rolling as indicated in Fig. 1.

25、7.4.3 In a transverse bend (bad way bend) specimen, its length shall be perpendicular to the direction of rolling as indicated inFig. 1.7.4.4 Unless stated otherwise, the length and width of rectangular specimens shall be in the plane of the two major dimensionsof the product.7.5 The specimen thickn

26、ess shall be measured using a micrometer with a precision of 0.0001 in. (0.00254 mm).8. Procedure8.1 Direction of TestAll tests shall be performed with the axis of the bend at 90 to the specimen length.8.2 90 Bend Test:8.2.1 Place the specimen between the supports and apply the bend force until the

27、angle of bend reaches 90. Release the forceand examine the specimen.8.3 180 Bend Test:8.3.1 Adjust the specimen supports using the dial indicators. Move each support away from the test punch center-line (fullyclosed position) by a distance equal to the strip thickness plus the punch radius, plus 0.0

28、005 in. (0.013 mm).8.3.2 Place the specimen between the supports and apply the bend force until an the angle of bend reaches 180. Release theforce and examine the specimen.8.4 Pass/Fail CriterionTo pass either the 90 or 180 bend test, all five specimens shall not exhibit any cracks when examinedat a

29、 magnification of 30. (The appearance of orange peel or roughened surface does not constitute a crack.) Metallographiccross-section shall be used as a referee method, examining at 150 magnification.9. Report9.1 The results shall be reported as a minimum bend ratio (smallest passing bend test radius/

30、strip thickness). It shall bereferenced with the degree of bend (90 or 180) and test direction (longitudinal or transverse).10. Retest10.1 If one out of the five test specimens fails, a retest is permitted. If more than one specimen fails, no retesting is permitted.10.2 A retest requires an addition

31、al five test specimens. All of these specimens must pass the bend test.11.
