This is because when bending the 80 the punch tip is not pressed into the sheet metal in the way bottom bending is.
Bottoming sheet metal.
In air bending the sheet takes on a natural bend radius that s determined by thickness hardness and other material properties.
Bottoming may refer to.
Bottoming does two things for us.

In bottoming the sheet is forced against the v opening in the bottom tool.
In fact with bottoming the metal experiences what s referred to as springback which is what happens when it relaxes to a wider angle after being bent.
Bottom bending is often confused with air bending and leads operators to ask themselves why there is a difference in radius when bending a 90 and 80 angle.

Hillman 24 in x 24 in cold rolled steel solid sheet metal.
U shaped openings cannot be used.
Space is left between the sheet and the bottom of the v opening.
The wooden bread layers of the sandwich keep the sheet metal flat and prevent the drill bit from wandering as it bores through the sheet metal.
Part of the fundamental manufacturing processes video series this program examines two of the oldest manufacturing processes.
Bottoming bottoming is also known as bottom pressing or bottom striking.
As the name bottom pressing suggests the punch presses the metal sheet onto the surface of the die so the die s angle determines the final angle of the workpiece.
The optimum width of the v opening is 6 t t stands for material thickness for sheets about 3 mm thick up to about 12 t for 12 mm thick sheets.
It results in a tighter corner radius even equal to the sheet material thickness and it s more accurate.

With bottoming the inner radius of the angled sheet depends on the die s radius.
