What is Induction Bending?
Induction bending is an advanced metal bending technique that provides high precision, efficiency, and consistency. It is suitable for a wide range of applications and effectively eliminates the potential geometrical distortion associated with cold-bending methods, such as ovalization, rippling or waving caused by build-up of internal stresses due to previous processes of tube forming.

Structural Engineers should be aware of the material property changes that occur in the bending process of steel sections.
In the case of cold bending, it relates to the strain that occurs when a section is bent (curved) as the outer surface expands and the inner surface of the bend contracts.

What Is Cone Bending?
Cone bending is a specialist metal forming process that shapes flat sheet metal or plate into a conical form – a structure that gradually narrows from a wide base to a smaller top. It is an essential fabrication technique widely applied across industries requiring cone-shaped components.

When Craftsmanship Meets Artistry: Barnshaws’ Precision Bending for Elegant Lighting
Precision Brass Bending for Bespoke Lighting: This project involved a large order of 50 x 25 x 1.5mm Brass RHS (Rectangular Hollow Section), rolled to a 475mm inside radius. While the specification may appear straightforward, bending such a thin and malleable material without causing deformation was a significant challenge.
