Summary of Test Method4.1 The bend t

10、est is made by applying a force transverselyto the length of the specimen in the portion being bent, usuallyat mid-length. The 90 bending forces are applied through anarrangement illustrated in Fig. 2, while 180 bending forces areapplied through an arrangement illustrated in Fig. 3. Whencomplete fra

11、cture does not occur, the convex surface of thespecimen is examined for cracks. In general, the test using a180 bend angle is a more severe test than the test using a 90bend angle.5. Significance and Use5.1 This bend test provides information as to the formabilityor the ability of copper and copper

12、alloy strip to resist crackingwhen being formed.5.2 This test method can be used as a quality control tool todetermine if material will form to a given radius.5.3 This test method is also useful in research and develop-ment to provide data for use in selecting a spring material thatwill safely form

13、to the geometry of a given part.5.4 The results are suitable for direct application in designand manufacturing, only when all factors such as the geometry1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee B05 on Copperand Copper Alloys and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee B05.

The apparatus shall provide these features:6.1.1 90 Bend Test FixtureAn illustration of this testfixture i

18、s shown in Fig. 2. A specimen rests on a pair of pins,rollers, or radiused flat supports; a pin, mandrel, or 90 V-blockpunch of a given bend radius for applying the bending forcedirectly at the mid-length.6.1.2 180 Bend Test FixtureAn illustration of this testfixture is shown in Fig. 3. A specimen r

19、ests on a pair of pins,rollers, or radiused flat supports; a pin, mandrel, or 180 punchof a given bend radius for applying the bending force directlyat the mid-length. Dial indicators with a precision of 0.0005 in.(0.013 mm) or better are necessary to accurately position thetwo supports.6.1.2.1 To p

20、revent breaking the punch, it is recommendednot to use a radius smaller than12 the thickness of the materialbeing tested.6.2 The radius of the single pin, mandrel, or punch applyingthe bend force at the mid-length shall differ not more than65 % from the nominal value of the radius.6.3 The length of

21、all pins, rolls, mandrels, and radius flatsmust exceed the width of the specimen; they must be strongenough and sufficiently rigid to resist significant deformation.7. Test Specimens7.1 Test Specimen Requirement:7.1.1 When the purchaser does not define a bending widthrequirement, the default width s

22、hall be12 6116 in. (12.7 61.57 mm).7.1.1.1 Four test specimens shall be required, two in thelongitudinal and two in the transverse directions for the 90and 180 test angles.7.1.2 When the purchaser defines a bending test at or below14 in. (6.35 mm), then the producer can optionally apply thenarrow wi

23、dth specimen as defined in 7.1.2.1 (see Fig. 4).7.1.2.1 The narrow width specimen consists of four beams:0.024 6 0.002 in. (0.6 6 0.05 mm), 0.047 6 0.003 in. (1.2 60.08 mm), 0.095 6 0.004 in. (2.4 6 0.1 mm), and 0.189 60.005 in. (4.8 6 0.13 mm). Four test specimens shall berequired, two in the longi

24、tudinal and two in the transversedirections, for the 90 and 180 angles.7.1.2.2 When the purchaser does not identify a specificwidth in the narrow width specimen, the default width shall be0.095 6 0.004 in. (2.4 6 0.1 mm).7.2 The test specimens may be prepared by cutting,shearing, or stamping.7.3 The

25、 test specimens shall have any convenient lengthgreater than12 in. (12.7 mm) unless specified otherwise by thepurchaser.7.4 Direction of Specimen:7.4.1 The bending characteristics of a metal vary with theorientation of the bends to the direction of rolling. A longitu-dinal bend will typically take a

26、 sharper bend radius than atransverse bend. This characteristic becomes more pronouncedas the metal thickness increases.7.4.2 In a longitudinal specimen, its length shall be parallelto the direction of rolling as indicated in Fig. 1.7.4.3 In a transverse bend specimen, its length shall beperpendicul

27、ar to the direction of rolling as indicated in Fig. 1.7.4.4 Unless stated otherwise, the length and width ofrectangular specimens shall be in the plane of the two majordimensions of the product.7.5 The specimen thickness shall be measured using amicrometer with a precision of 0.0001 in. (0.00254 mm)
