[Column] Bending Processing of Brass: Points and Precautions

Choose the appropriate processing method! This article introduces the methods for bending brass and things to keep in mind during the work.

Brass is a metal made by adding zinc to copper, and like copper, it is a metal that is easy to stretch and bend. Brass is primarily processed through bending in cold forging and hot forging. Cold forging does not subject the material to thermal effects, but since the material is not soft, high pressure must be applied during processing. Hot forging softens the material with heat for processing, making it easier to finish into complex shapes, but there is a risk of the material being affected by heat. This article will introduce methods for bending brass and important considerations during the work.
