I have a 65 ton/ 54" Verson that Freightliner updated in the 90's with OSHA air controls. I use it for running tools like a stamping press for the most part.
I'm working on a small product that needs several 30ish inch 90 bends in 16g 5052. I rummaged through a friends spare tooling pile yesterday and came out with a couple 6' - 8' long American style soft punch and die sections that will work for me.
I can just whack off what I need and be good, but I would like to be smarter about it if I can.
What should I take into consideration to figure out what lengths I need?
