I need some information about the differences between Gauge table and Bend table in sheet metal.
Which one is better to be used, Pros and Cons, advantages and disadvantages of one against the other, or anything else.
I've been using Bend tables for several years, but never have used a Gauge table.
thank you.
I use both. Gauge table is set up for thicknesses and available radius. Bend table for finding out k-factor.
