Surface protection

Protective mark-free bending for visible stainless panels

Visible stainless and coated panels require both the correct angle and protected contact surfaces throughout a controlled bend sequence.

COVO Mark-Free Bending die forming a visible sheet-metal panel

Challenge

Tool contact marks can turn an accurate bend into a finishing problem when the formed face remains visible in the final assembly.

Approach

The die geometry is selected for the material surface and target form, with the application image used to review the bend path.

Outcome

Surface appearance becomes part of tooling approval instead of a correction after the panel has been formed.
