Abstract

An apparatus for bending a plate utilizing a bending punch and a die into which the bending punch penetrates to a greater or lesser extent depending on the bending angle .alpha.. The magnitude and variation of the bending force required during deformation of the plate unit are determined and utilized to determine the depth h of punch penetration.
