Calculate the developed length of round and square tube after bending with centerline radius and bend angle inputs. Supports multi-bend sequences, material K-factors, minimum radius and thin-wall warnings.
All bends within recommended radius limits for this material.
Bend allowance uses the neutral-axis method BA = θ × (R + K×T). Tangent offsets R × tan(θ/2) are removed from adjacent straights. Confirm with a trial bend …"springback and mandrel choice affect the final result.
