The bend angle, or the degree to which the metal is bent, can be controlled by adjusting the punch and die tool used in the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sheet metal bending process creates various shapes and forms of sheet metal, such as bends, welding flanges, and stamping parts, which make it an efficient method for mass production\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBending can be made through various methods.
