Minimize Springback and Achieve Accurate Part Dimensions
Springback, where material tries to return to its original shape after bending, can cause parts to fall out of tolerance. To address this, Frigate employs overbending techniques, where the material is bent slightly beyond the desired angle to compensate for spring back. Precision tooling and real-time force adjustments further minimize this issue. These methods help ensure parts remain within specifications, reducing the need for costly rework and ensuring consistent quality throughout production.Â
