15、nited States15. 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 test method can be used as a quality control tool to determine if material will form to a given radius.5.3 Th

16、is 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 for direct application in design and manufacturing, only when all factors such as the geometry ofthe part

17、, 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 these features:6.1.1 90 Bend Test FixtureAn illustration of this test fixture is shown in Fig. 2. A specim

18、en 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 Test FixtureAn illustration of this test fixture is shown in Fig. 3. A specimen rests on a pair of pins, r

19、ollers,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. (0.013 mm) or better are necessary to accurately position the twosupports.6.1.2.1 To prevent breaking the pun

20、ch, 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).6.2 The radius of the single pin, mandrel, or punch applying the bend force at the mid-length shall differ not more than 65 %from

21、the nominal value of the radius.FIG. 1 Direction of BendingFIG. 2 V-Block and Punch for 90 Bend TestFIG. 3 Fixture for 180 Bend TestB820 14a26.3 The length of all pins, rolls, mandrels, and radius flats must exceed the width of the specimen; they must be strong enoughand sufficiently rigid to resist

22、 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 The 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

23、 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 rolling. A longitudinal orgood way bend will take a sharper bend radius than a transverse bend. This characteristic becomes more pronoun

24、ced 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. 1.7.4.3 In a transverse bend (bad way bend) specimen, its length shall be perpendicular to the direction of rolling as indicated inFig.

25、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 thickness shall be measured using a micrometer with a precision of 0.0001 in. (0.00254 mm).8. Procedure8.1 Direction of TestAll tests shall

26、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 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 dia

27、l 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 0.0005 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. Rele

28、ase 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 magnification of 30. (The appearance of orange peel or roughened surface does not constitute a crack.) Metallographiccross-section sh

29、all 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/strip thickness). It shall bereferenced with the degree of bend (90 or 180) and test direction (longitudinal or transverse).10. Retest

30、10.1 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 additional five test specimens. All of these specimens must pass the bend test.11. Precision and Bias11.1 No information is presented about ei
